The easiest way to acquire Howler Moss is by picking it in the wild in Scosglen. You can reach Scosglen early in the game, as it’s just north of the Fractured Peaks starting area.

Traveling to this area relatively early in the game is a good idea, as you’ll need Howler Moss to keep upgrading your health potion. However, consider waiting until you level up a few times before entering the area, as it can be difficult for new players.

You can also get Howler Moss in Herb Caches, which are rewards in some side quests. However, this isn’t a reliable method to get the item, so consider traveling to Scosglen for an easier experience.

Other recipes that call for Howler Moss include the Weak Third Eye Elixir, Weak Elixir of Poison Resistance, and Weak Crushing Elixir. If you plan on using any of these items consistently in your build, collecting Howler Moss is crucial.
