Can you tell us where this issue is occurring for you and give us more details about which herbs aren't pleasing you? We're actively working on a project to improve the herb spawns and locations in instances. Other areas, such as Elwynn Forest, I have personally noted seem to have many fewer herbs than they did prior to the core update.

we increased herb the number of herbs which were spawned at any point on tw but believe only ever to northrend herbs as in most zones you could find a max of 15 herbs spawned at anyone point this may need looking at again on tw as believe both vanilla and tbc herbs where plentiful its just northrend zones which had shit rates.

i am not sure if this is correct.
last two nights, i was questing in hellfire peninsula and the only person in that zone, i found lots and lots of mineral nodes but maybe 4 or 5 herb nodes while questing for several hours.

Also be sure to herb everything you see even if you are looking for a specific herb, the dynamic system replaces herbs all over the zones when one is looted, keeping a fresh batch of herbs around.

You can pretty much fly around in circles in a zone and herbs keep respawning on your way consistently. Idk if it's blizzlike because I never had gatherering professions on retail, but it feels really nice not having to wait for half an hour after picking through a zone.
Also you don't have to strictly follow a route to be efficient anymore because the herbs respawn in random places.
I am also seeing some herbs spawn in spots where I haven't seen them before.

Tested Shadowmoon Valley and Zangarmarsh so far. Overall it seems much more plenty and the process is more relaxed than with timed respawns.

Are you sure that Zangarmarsh stayed the same? For me I had a lot more Flamecaps spawn, some of them seemingly in new spots, too.

I don't know, Spectrez said something about Zangarmarsh not being fully done

Zangarmarsh was skipped as it had a high amount of allowed herb spawns already

An update by Andriuspel went live several days ago that dramatically increased the amount of herbs available in the pools.
If this is still an issue, inform us with a new thread.
