If you've been farming for days and haven't gotten it, it might be because you haven't talked to the gourd monkey npc in chapter 1. If you skip talking to him, the soak from lotus, as well as steel ginseng don't drop. I only realized this after farming 900 lotus. Got it on my first rotation after talking to him (read this on a forum. Credit to vahndaar who datamined and shared this information)
Is it too late if you already unlocked the Ruyi Scroll? I talked to him there but after the option went away, I still do not have it and I am already on NG++.
This is one of the most frustrating and dumb mechanics to ever be in a game. Let's add a time gap to plants but also add a low rate drop of items. Yeah!! LETS MAKE THEM WAIT 30mins each time!
Idk if you've gotten it yet, but it popped for me at the windrest bridge shrine. Facing away from the shrine, go to your left. You'll go downhill past a few enemies. When you pass the rat enemy with the shield and spear, look directly to your right, and there will be a massive rock. The ginseng plant will be there. I think the plant is the actual soak if that makes sense.
On ps u can just go to settings, system, date and time, set date and time and just change it so the game thinks 30mins passed. You gotta go to a different chapter first or back to menu tho before u do it
@notcruelz be careful doing this though. I saw a bunch of kids saying it corrupted the save data and they had to start all over again. I refused to do it cause I was to scared 😂
not even a good platinum, its honestly the shittiest plat from all the 16 ive got, those fat gay devs shouldve taken a look at good games and good platinums such as all fromsoft titles. this just gay af and makes me hate the gay game more than I already do for it being a weak GoW copy
if you don't glich the game by changing your system time they take something like 30min to respawn, so yeah you want to get all of them each run to max out your chances

Note: There’s aged Genseng where you fought Guangzhi (Yaoguai Chief). It’s behind the structure in the boss arena
Got all of them, still no steel ginsing. Using the armor and curio for increased drop rates too lol. Love this game…
What armour is that??
The armor is just for enemies drop, not plants
@@MatojosMorganSame with the curio...but I also try it with them. 😅 Fucking rng...
@@HansDampf1911 trying is okay, you know what isn't ok? The shitty rng they have
Which armor?
There is also one next to temple entrance shrine in chapter 2!!Next to the stairs right side of the wall!!
Man I’ve been doing this farm for more than 5 days and I still don’t get lucky…
Same
ive got fucking three jade drops but still no ginseng its so gay
Whoever made the call to add this to the game must have caught their wife cheating on them that morning.
nah they never toched a woman in their life, otherwise they wouldnt be such fat nerds adding rng
Last things I need for the platinum. The RNG is such a pain in the ass. Worst part is waiting the 30+ minutes for the plants to respawn.
After one week no Steel ginseng
Thanks a lot!!!
This ginseng run is a mofo
reassure me you too have been running for 3 hours cumulatively and still nothing?
waaaay over 3 hours for me and still nothing. That RNG bullshit is ridiculous and annoying af
This is the only thing for me left to get platinum.
Thanks a lot, i got it in towers of karma
Thanks man got it on my 3rd run
thanks! i finally got it
thx got mine at the very last shrine
This might save my plat... Will try this run
AND IT DID!!! SWEET RUN BRO NICE VID
Use the RNG mod if you are on pc to get a guaranteed drop
Thank you so much
Finally got it!
Ready for NG+ lovely
you can continue this in ng+ you insane if you didnt already ng+ and just farmed this rather than continuing and getting some on the way
Thanx
I just spent like 2 hours on the tender jade lotus and got lucky on this one and got it first try 😅
Same 😂
There is a algorithm for this game which is hard to understand regarding its rng 🤦🏻♂️
@@Pashasoli its gay asf, I literally got my third tender jade lotus but not a single ginseng
Drop rate on this thing is utterly ridiculous
Still no steel ginseng i hate this game
Thx
Still struggling
OMG, im trying to get this shit item for almost 15 hours 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
Same its my last one
Worst trophy,, boring😤
Yea real cool 1 ginseng per fast travel really good farm
if you don't glich the game by changing your system time they take something like 30min to respawn, so yeah you want to get all of them each run to max out your chances
Idiot trophy..
