Hide Gathering

"It's a graveyard for the arrogant..." --Baraka v • e • c (623) This article is about removed content, an article of a subject that is no longer available in TERA and very unlikely to ever return due to development decisions. The article remains here for historical purposes.

Hide Gathering no longer happens in TERA. Hides no longer drop from monsters. Even before December 2018 changes hides could be bought from merchants if needed for crafting.

Hide Gathering is not an actual gathering skill in TERA, and there is no leveling system for it. There are no nodes from which hides can be gathered from. Instead, all monsters have a chance to drop hides, so they are gathered as the player adventures. This makes hides the hardest raw material to obtain. Hides in TERA exist in 5 tiers - they are bound to monsters at specific zones (the same zones that separate other raw materials). Therefore, it is impossible to get Gravehide from monsters on the Island of Dawn. Hides are needed for Armor Crafting.

Because one hide produces one piece of leather, it is generally not advantageous to bring refining supplies to the field. However, if collecting and producing Rough Cereleather, bringing refining supplies to the field will allow you to collect 50 Gravehides and immediately transform them into Rough Cereleather thus making transport slighly easier.
