U9 Where's the Mandrake root?

Egads, I've freed the Serpent so the seller in BD won't talk to me and the
seller in Minoc just walks around the hills saying"please see me later in my
shop". But she NEVER goes there - been trying many times over 3 days -
sleeping a few hrs then checking her tent.

And my "create reagents" spell only seems to make black pearls - I've got
about twenty of them so far.

Anyone know other sources - or where it grows?

With a deafening roar and a whoosh of spray, John Crane swings about and

That's a known bug with the Minoc vendor. Some people recommend blocking
her into her shop with a large object so she doesn't walk out and you can
do business with her. Once she's left, she never returns. If you take the
blockage route next time you play, I'd suggest using the Fly cheat to
head there at the beginning of the game.

That's another bug. There are only a few places people have found where
you can get something other than Black Pearl on a regular basis. One of
them is a couple of paces south of the broken dome on the east shore of
New Magincia, right on the waterline. You get a random selection of
reagents there, though Mandrake still seems to be scarce as hens teeth. I
got all the others (nightshade just once or twice) but I don't recall
getting Mandrake.

It's hard to find the stuff, and I didn't remember all the places you can
find it, but I found the location list for Mandrake posted to the Wayward

As another poster to the referenced thread notes, you can also reuse
reagents for spellbinding by putting them back in your pack after being
prompted for the words of the spell to be bound but before entering those
words to complete the ritual.
