Drying

Drying is a Processing method that has a variety of uses. It can be used to dry meat and fish, but also to extract salt from saltwater, making cheese from milk and more. It is only available during the day when it is not raining, and only if you are not standing in water.

Drying can be performed by hitting 'L' by default.

Drying: Beginner

For more advanced drying, you need to learn the knowledge Drying: Beginner from Techthon in Heidel City by completing his quest Need Soft Hides!. The quest unlocks when you get access to the quest Learning Higher Processing Skills, which can be obtained in two ways: Have Gathering Apprentice 4 and get the quest directly from Ficy in Heidel City, or complete the questline started by the Black Spirit as you enter Heidel City.
The Black Spirit will ask you to go to Jemkas Wyrmbane, who will have the quest Because I Like You, which requires you to either have Gathering Beginner 7 or have completed the quest Go to the Northern Heidel Quarry.
Complete the rest of the questline to get access to Learning Higher Processing Skills and Techthon's quest:

• Because I Like You
• Nothing Our Friendship Can't Do
