This is a growing record of search results in specific terrain. The information here will provide insight into what searchable items are available and where the best location to find such items is.

Your Help Is Needed!

Here's the Situation: Until we've logged about 500 AP of searching in an individual terrain type, we have no idea of the Search Odds. So we're going to need your help! When restocking in town or at a tree, set aside a block of about 30-70 AP. Out in open terrain (such as jungle), there's a lot less to find and less incentive to search, so smaller (e.g. 10 AP) searches are fine. Just don't come here after-the-fact to log your amazing discoveries, or you'll totally screw up our search odds. (Well, feel free to log your find in the italic discovery text for that region -- especially if you find a heavy sword or are searching a new terrain such as Ruins. Just don't put that tally into the data table unless you've committed to the search in advance.)

You are encouraged to submit your own search results. Use the preview function to make sure you've got the table columns correct, and make sure that your total AP used adds up to your total searches. If the table format looks like gibberish to you, please add your data in prose form: "Searches: 20 AP, Found: bottle water, mango, mango, heavy sword. Class: Scientist-0. Signed: ~~~~." I've got this page on my watchlist and I'll add your entry into the table.

Eventual analysis will be located on the Search Odds Condensed page.
