Putting it into practice
Confirm the buffCheck the character's displayed night-gathering status in an eligible Hollowed encounter area. A night-time fox location does not necessarily satisfy that area condition.
Prepare for dangerBring recovery and a clear route. A pause in local replenishment does not remove enemies that already exist, and the buff does not multiply quest or discovery XP.

Where and when it applies

The character must be alive, outside interiors and expeditions, finished restoring location, and in an area where Hollowed night encounters are allowed. Successful gathering uses the activity modifier with normal whole-XP rounding. The buff does not add items or gold and does not multiply quest, discovery or combat XP.

Finding plants and room after combat

Wild sage and flax flowers glow softly in their own colour at night. Defeating a Hollowed encounter pauses new local night-creature replenishment for 120 seconds within 45 metres. Existing enemies remain active; this is not protection from them.

Foxes have a wider habitat

Foxes hunt alone in suitable green woodland outside towns at night. Their habitat is independent of the Hollowed-area condition, so fox hunting does not always grant the gathering buff.
