FORAGE

Forage is an underutilized skill that is granted to Scouts. Similiar to the artisan "sample" skill, foraging allows you to scrounge the immediate area for food and drink. This food and drink provides different buffs, such as temporary strength increases, HAM penality reducers and other effects that have multiple benefits. At this time you don't receive XP from a successful forage, and these remains a top request of the Scouting community.

There is a bug with forage that doesn't allow you to forage more than two items at one time. If you forage more than 2, you'll get an error that your inventory is full even if it is empty. This has been brought up to the Devs.

Further, you can now forage in lairs, which provides you with interesting items such as bees and eggs. The eggs are very useful for chefs, and can be sold. The bees can be placed into a creature habitat that is crafted by artisans. While these don't benefit you directly, they do provide some interesting visual affects.
