Yield, timing and experience

Herbs normally yield 1–3 units.

Herb rarity	Timing needed	Clean-pick XP
Common	None	No
Uncommon	Hold for 2.5 s	Yes, if clean
Rare	Hold for 2.5 s	Yes, if clean

Before attribute modifiers:

Picking limit	Value
Maximum turning	3°
Maximum movement	0.25 m
Rain	20% less turning tolerance
Botanist	50% more turning tolerance
Bruised yield	1 fewer unit, with a minimum of 1

Picking XP follows your current profession rank, regardless of the herb's rarity. This makes common herbs useful all the way to Master. Common or bruised picks earn Base XP. Only a clean uncommon/rare pick earns the Clean XP column; Apothecary's Friend guarantees that clean result for those picks.

Basket XP stays at tier 1:

Herbalism rank	Normal XP	Clean XP

Seasonal bonuses change yield rather than the XP tier.
