Farming Contractor is a hireable NPC worker in Windrose who automates farming at your base. Hire one from the Recruitment Vendor in Tortuga for 10 gold coins, place them at base, and they will work crops through a farming bench.
Property | Value |
|---|---|
Source | |
Cost | 10 gold coins (not Piastres) |
Placement | At your base farming bench |
Property | Value |
|---|---|
Input per job | 50 seeds of one crop + 20 silver coins |
Duration | ~8 hours of real time |
Output | Returns all 50 seeds plus a substantial crop yield |
Offline | Work continues while the player is offline |
The 8-hour real-time duration means Farming Contractors are ideal for players who log in daily. Start a job at the end of a play session, log off, return the next day, and collect the harvest plus the seeds back. The "returns all 50 seeds" behavior is what makes the contractor a genuine automation path rather than a currency sink.
Farming Contractors are particularly useful for players who want to scale up cooking and alchemy production without personally tending crops. Combined with Rosalinda Merca's alchemy bonus and Black Axel's cooking bonus, a Tortuga-heavy base setup can produce a large surplus of buff foods and healing potions with minimal daily hands-on work.
