Basic Fruit, Stone, Dung Walking Guide

[Phil Surtees]

Great guide, but walking is not necessary, but it certainly may produce better results than the 'run and stop' .
I never walk. My W key is bound to a fap. I still find these things.
I am a miner-hunter, and they always pop up right after I come to a halt to shoot or go back to a claim, or when I get to the claim.
I admit that this may not be the best method, but it does happen.

I subscribe to the theory of "MA avatar predetermination", which holds that if MA's server decides you should get something , you get it. This is one of the things that seem to support it. It also supports some other theories ( depo'ing blesses, skill gain theory, chosen ones), though, so who really knows?

actually if i see something on the ground you see it too. it isn't avatar based at all... i still prefer to walk it cause things can be missed in that fraction of the second your running.. just my opinion.

Don't forget to keep your eyes open when sweating & hunting as well. They can pop up at any time. If you see one but are not able to pick it up in time just wait a minute or so and it will "usually" pop up again.

I agree with the previous folks, make this a sticky! Great guide!

I was shown a quicker method of foraging. The trick has something to do with fruit/stones showing themselves to you when you are within 10 meters (or feet, can't remember) of them. Thus, you only need to be walking within a 10 meter area for a period to see the object, then you can run to the "next" 10 feet and so on, sort of like how you cover an area mining. To do this put yourself on autowalk as above with the w/enter/enter, then while autowalking you can press q (or your self assigned run key) for a short moment to run to the next 10 meter area, walk a little, run again, etc. I've found that it turns out to be about 4.5 steps walking, then 2 running. so you do have to be pressing the run key on and off continuously. Now, some have done this with a keyboard macro but of course we all know that to be against the rules.....

Nothing against the opening post but I learned some things with this quote.

what if you walk by without paying attention and a fruit shows up, can you run back to it and have it still be there?
