'''Horticrafting''' is an ability to use harvested mods, introduced in the [[Harvest league]] and further improved in [[version 3.13.0]] ([[Ritual league]]).
'''Harvest Crafting''' or '''Horticrafting''' refers to creating or improving [[item]]s by utilizing [[harvest]]ed [[modifier]]s, or ''"crafts"''. It was introduced in the [[Harvest league]] and added to the core game in the [[Echoes of the Atlas]] expansion, and has undergone multiple updates since then. Players can explore maps to find entrances to the [[The Sacred Grove]]. Monsters in the Sacred Grove drop [[Lifeforce|Crystallized Lifeforce]] which are used for Harvest crafting recipes using the [[Horticrafting Station]].


Players can explore maps to find entrances to the [[The Sacred Grove]] which offer pre-created Horticrafting gardens. Slaying the monsters will generate Horticrafting mods. These mods can be captured and stored in the [[Horticrafting Station]] which can be used from a player's hideout. A maximum of 10 mods can be stored, and mods can be freely added, removed or used at any time.
These crafts allow players to create greatly improved {{c|rare|rare}} items, because they allow greater control over the modification process versus using orbs, or exchanging currency or fragment items for different ones.


Every Horticrafting mod has a certain item level, and can only be used on items of that level or below that level. For example a Horticrafting mod of level 70 cannot be used on an item that is level 83.
*For example, the craft ''"Add a new Chaos modifier and remove another random modifier from a non-Influenced item"'' (formerly called an 'augment' craft) offers the ability to add a Chaos-related modifier. Even with the complication of removing a mod and the limitation to non-influenced items, it is a powerful crafting option compared to the randomness of an {{il|Exalted Orb}}. Unlike [[Essence]] and [[Fossil]] crafting, it can be used with [[meta-crafting mod]]s, which can be used to guarantee specific mods, such as +1 gem level mods on an amulet.
*Certain crafts are completely unique to Harvest crafting and cannot be performed with any other method currently in the game. For example, the craft ''"Change a modifier that grants Fire Resistance into a similar tier modifier that grants Lightning Resistance"'' is completely unique and allows players to "fix" items that are perfect for their build but have a resistance modifier that they don't need.
*Harvest crafting also allows you to change other features of the item, such as its [[Influenced item|influence]] or turning it into a [[Synthesised item]].

Harvest Crafting or Horticrafting refers to creating or improving items by utilizing harvested modifiers, or "crafts". It was introduced in the Harvest league and added to the core game in the Echoes of the Atlas expansion, and has undergone multiple updates since then. Players can explore maps to find entrances to the The Sacred Grove. Monsters in the Sacred Grove drop Crystallized Lifeforce which are used for Harvest crafting recipes using the Horticrafting Station.

These crafts allow players to create greatly improved rare items, because they allow greater control over the modification process versus using orbs, or exchanging currency or fragment items for different ones.

  • For example, the craft "Add a new Chaos modifier and remove another random modifier from a non-Influenced item" (formerly called an 'augment' craft) offers the ability to add a Chaos-related modifier. Even with the complication of removing a mod and the limitation to non-influenced items, it is a powerful crafting option compared to the randomness of an Exalted OrbExalted OrbStack Size: 20Augments a rare item with a new random modifierRight click this item then left click a rare item to apply it. Rare items can have up to six random modifiers.. Unlike Essence and Fossil crafting, it can be used with meta-crafting mods, which can be used to guarantee specific mods, such as +1 gem level mods on an amulet.
  • Certain crafts are completely unique to Harvest crafting and cannot be performed with any other method currently in the game. For example, the craft "Change a modifier that grants Fire Resistance into a similar tier modifier that grants Lightning Resistance" is completely unique and allows players to "fix" items that are perfect for their build but have a resistance modifier that they don't need.
  • Harvest crafting also allows you to change other features of the item, such as its influence or turning it into a Synthesised item.
