Where to Find Herb Avinea in Octopath Traveler 0

As you rebuild Wishvale in Octopath Traveler 0, you will receive many requests, and if you want the town to grow, you will need to complete said requests. After progressing the Rekindling of the Flame quest, you will meet Jasper, but he won't return to Wishvale unless you get him a specific herb.

Herb Avinea is the only ingredient that can help Jasper recover from his injuries. Of course, it isn't the easiest item to get in the game, as you can't just go to your garden and grow it.

Here is where you can find the elusive Herb Avinea in Octopath Traveler 0.

Herb Avinea Locations in Octopath Traveler 0

Unfortunately, Octopath Traveler 0 doesn't hold your hand when it comes to finding Herb Avinea, so you will need to go out of your way to track it down. Jasper will only give you a little hint about it growing in the highlands, and that merchants in the desert will sometimes have it.

For starters, you can obtain Herb Avinea from a town called Sunshade, which is out in the desert. At this point in the game, you will have traveled to Shepherd's Rock, which is the town to the east of Sunshade, so if you haven't traveled to Sunshade, head west from Shepherd's Rock to reach it.

Once there, make your way to the bar in the back of the town. Here, you will find many lively NPCs you can interact with. One such NPC will be the Collector of Rare Items.

The Collector of Rare Items will only have one item available for purchase: Avinea. Unfortunately, he will also be asking 20,000 Leaves for it, or 10,000 if you manage to haggle the price down.

Either way, that is a lot of Leaves, and you might not have them unless you know all the ways to get a lot of money in Octopath Traveler 0. With that being said, there is a way to get this herb for free, but you need to search for it.

Herb Avinea grows in the highlands near Shepherd's Rock, and you can get the exact location where said herb grows by speaking to the Peddler of Diverse Goods in Shepherd's Rock. He can be found just north of the fountain in the town.

Purchase the item called Apinea from him, and he will tell you that it is Apinea and not Avinea. The two herbs look very similar. He will then proceed to tell you where you can find Avinea: the Cavern of Mists.

From Shepherd's Rock, head east and make your way northeast along the next path to the Cavern of Mists. This location is level 33, so you will want to keep on your guard if you are slightly underleveled, but you should know the trick of switching rows at this point.

Inside the Cavern of Mists, take the first right when the path splits. After that, continue to the east until the route splits north and south. Take the south path, follow it to the end, and you will find the Herb Avinea. You can now give this item to Jasper and continue the quest.
