:Milling a plant produces seeds. The only thing that '''doesn't''' yield seeds is cooking (and rotting, but that should be obvious enough). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 19:20, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

I surrounded a millstone with a stockpile of sliver barbs (hoping to get Sliver Dye quickly) and my millers still went to the more distant food pile to mill plants. It seems that the proximity of plants does not determine which one is chosen for milling.--[[Special:Contributions/208.81.12.34|208.81.12.34]] 17:47, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Quality Discussions

I think this should be downgraded to an Elven article. It looks like a stub to me. unsigned comment by Me

Well.. it doesn't have any red links, with many blues. unsigned comment by 92.10.72.113

I think it should be downgraded to +Fine+. There is a small, basic amount of information. No illustrations of how to hook up millstone to anything, no tips, etc.

Too many articles are marked as +Exceptional+ currently, due to the switch from "Elven", "Human", "Dwarven" to "Tattered", "Exceptional", and "Masterwork". Fine was added later, so most articles that SHOULD be marked "Fine" are currently marked "Exceptional".

I'm bumping this article down to "+Fine+". Others can bump it up if they disagree with me. --Darkstar 21:24, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Ehhh... y'know, you could ADD those things you think should be in the article. See? I just did. And then I put it back to Exceptional. --DeMatt 21:55, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Millstone in general

... What's the advantage of a millstone over a quern? Is there any, really? --Aescula 00:52, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Not 100% sure of this, but I imagine it's speed. I don't know how fast a legendary miller can work a quern, whether it's still an appreciable amount of time, but milling with a powered millstone is just this side of instant. Niveras 01:33, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Mill Plant, Receive Seed

Does milling a plant produce or a seed/spawn, or is the seed destroyed?--208.81.12.34 18:51, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Milling a plant produces seeds. The only thing that doesn't yield seeds is cooking (and rotting, but that should be obvious enough). --Quietust 19:20, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Mill Plant - Closest Plant Not Milled First

I surrounded a millstone with a stockpile of sliver barbs (hoping to get Sliver Dye quickly) and my millers still went to the more distant food pile to mill plants. It seems that the proximity of plants does not determine which one is chosen for milling.--208.81.12.34 17:47, 13 September 2010 (UTC)
