1) Introduction
The purpose of this FAQ is to list the various item farming spots
that are located on the world of map of Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the
Starry Skies.
While I was playing the game, I scribbled down these areas so that I could
return to them later in case I needed some items for alchemy recipies.
I figured out that I should share this list :)
All these farming spots will respawn their items after a certain amount
of time.
The real mechanics about it are unknown to me (I don't know if you have to
close your DS, sleep at an inn, let a few game days pass or enter X amount
of battles to respawn items in these farming spots).
Note that the actual amount of items can vary.
Also, different item spots take different amount of time to respawn.
There will be less items that will appear if you left the farming spot
less time to respawn.
If you have trouble finding an area, refer to section 3 for map
references. It will guide you to the city closest to your farm point.

3) Map references
If you have no idea where maps like Urdus Marshland or Pluvi Isle are located,
the chart below gives you the nearest town and the closest path to take to get
to them.
I won't list map names that are identical to the nearest city's name because
if the map name is Stornway then you zoom to Stornway, right? :)
The only exception are for maps with areas that require special access
from another route.
For the other maps, just zoom to the nearest city and walk from there
or go there post-game.
