Any one have any pointers on where to find sweet bean? I’ve been looking on Besevorna but only got two.
Are you using an atlas? It can be really helpful if not
Figure i’ll try that. You know if they can be found elsewhere?
Sweet beans are harvested from a tentacle like plant.

Haven’t seen that one yet. Any particular planet?
Ive found them on most - Though Grovedias or whatever is called has them atleast - Lamblis got them too - I think any T3 has them atleast

Sounds good. Thanks for the info.
I ran around T3 planets all day yesterday and found 3 plants total. I leveled up a couple of times on meteors, but didn’t get squat as far as beans.
Are Sweet Beans are going the route of red gleam?
Try Lamblis, I came home with over 50 two days ago without even trying, just running around. I suggest you look for desert biomes

Oortian’s Staff - they’re abundant around desert biomes… but only if somebody hasn’t beaten you to it. I’ve been lucky a few times and found an area that’s been untouched, but a lot of the time they’re only in sparse pockets, because others have already been there.
My best way is really just to keep looking, and sometimes you can find some tucked away behind dunes, etc.

Desert Biomes seem to be built with gully’s and a ridge and a gully and a ridge. So I just make runs back and forth jumping to the next gully each time.
But it seems Sweet Beans is one of the most sought after resource now. there is actually a MAJOR food crisis in this universe for any teaching foods. there were a few loafs for a bit. Started at 500 per, then went back a few days later they were 800, then 1500, then some bloat has a few for 3500. And now they are gone. Havn’t seen any in over a week. I get the same answer from all the crafters, “We have no sweet beans”.
This reflects prices a lot. I believe most crafters do not gather any of their own resources, and pay for them. Thus prices are reflected in their cost. It’s been the trend for a while. To just stick baskets out, and never have any alts for the other chores. This keeps prices high.
I believe your analysis is correct. The teaching foods demand a lot of resources, to the point of being prohibitive to farm mass-craft quantities for yourself and stock a shop with such a popular item.
The only way to meet that kind of time demand is to pay coin for the raw materials, and leverage crafting efficiency to make back the expense with extra yield.
I think this is an excellent example of a functioning economy, creating a high-value high-demand product from many low-tier and mid-tier ingredients. This gives new players access to an early revenue stream.
