Can't level past 100 skill in herbalism (on boosted character)

(Edit: Hoorah! The devs know about it and it’ll be fixed: Herbing - Not getting skill points - #5 by Linxy)

As the title says: I can’t level up past skill level 100 in Herbalism on my boosted lvl 85 Pandaren Monk. Picked up close to 80 herbs (orange and yellow difficulty text label) with no skill up. I seem to not be the only one having issues with this, as I’ve seen people mention it on Reddit.

(Someone on Reddit suggested that going for Stranglekelp works, and so far that indeed is working, but, yeah, something is wrong)

Thanks for the Stranglekelp shoutout!

I’m also having this issue, but not on a boosted character. As you said, the nodes are all showing yellow and orange difficulty.

I was experiencing some issues even before 100 skill, sometimes having to hit between 10-13 nodes to go up one point, which seemed like more than I remember from leveling herbalism in MoP when it was retail. After 100 I did about 90 nodes before I got 101 with stranglekelp.

You’re welcome! I managed to level to 150 through Stranglekelp, and went into Feralas to continue levelling and so far I haven’t had any problems with levelling up from that point on, here’s to hoping it stays that way! :wink:

I also have the same issue, although my character isn’t boosted. Been stuck at 100.

It is a curse on boosted characters only.

Others are saying in this thread they have the same problem, and they’re on non-boosted characters :frowning:

85 according to WoWhead :slight_smile:
