The Foraging skill is one of the most widely utilized as players collect resources on the ground, within trees, and atop cliffs throughout Kilima Village and Bahari Bay. Progressing with the skill can be extremely rewarding as Ashura will have new items and recipes available to acquire with Gold and Skill Medals.
One of the most elusive items to forage is the Heartdrop Lily, which is of great value when pursuing romantic interests with various Villagers. If it’s love that you seek, you’ll want to learn where to find the Heartdrop Lily and its best uses in Palia.
12th October 2023 Update: The guide reflects that Hodari, a Villager NPC, can be romanced with its related quests included in the v0.170 patch update. The original reporting continues below.
How To Find The Heartdrop Lily In Palia?
The Heartdrop Lily is an Epic rarity flower seemingly elusive for players to locate and forage in Palia. This beautiful flower is native to Bahari Bay as it's noted for its "special meaning" to Palians as its appearance resembles a blooming relationship and, therefore, has a great significance in the game's Friendship and Romance system.
Locating the flower with its bright red petals and robust stalks can be tracked down in Bahari Bay using a Dowsing Rod as players must carefully look around the trolling hills and cliffsides. More specifically, there are a few notable locations where the Heartdrop Lily spawns, including the jagged edges of the cliffside north of the Statue Garden and The Outskirts, respectively.
The rugged cliffs south of the Windy Ruins are another prominent location where the Heartdrop Liliy is almost guaranteed to spawn, and players can utilize the fast travel system to travel to the nearest Stable board. Players are more than likely to climb these cliffs to locate the Heartdrop Lily, and once foraged, it has a five-minute cooldown period until the flower respawns.
How To Use The Heartdrop Lily In Palia?
The Heartdrop Lily has one primary use in Palia as it can be utilized as a gift when romancing Villager NPCs in Palia. Alongside the Box of Chocolates, players can increase their Romance level with the NPC they're pursuing a romantic relationship in the hopes of obtaining their Romance Pin.
Likewise, the flower is also an item required for completing Tish's Romance quest, in which they'll have to forage the Heartdrop Lily, Sundrop Lily, and Briar Daisy to complete its objective. Similarly, it's also a quest reward when completing the Fishing for Answers Discovery quest, which we recommend completing if you cannot find a Heartdrop Lily.
Lastly, players noted that if foraging for the Heartdrop Lily has proven difficult, they can buy the flower from Ashura's Foraging Guild Store. However, they must have reached Level 10 in the Foraging skill to begin obtaining Foraging Medals and additional items, including the Heartdrop Lily, which costs 20 Foraging Medals.
Palia is currently available in Open Beta for PC, as players can install the game launcher detailed in this guide. The cozy MMO will be available on Nintendo Switch consoles, releasing Holiday Season 2023.
