Are the luminaries equally distributed for every region? If not, then which has the most?

    Why do you want to level it? Now the regular trees give you the better drops and the shiny trees - most the time - give you mats to make element stones. The shiny trees aren't that often, it takes several of each mat to even make the regular stones. Since the change on what is dropped from the regular trees...seriously I wouldn't make a point of tryin to lvl it. The regular trees are the better ones now. Maybe that's why Nexon removed the easy to get ones from the beginning of runs - like TD.

    Well, I just want to get all the mats that are available when I come across them. Everything the shiny luminary has are useful at some point. While the star fruit and salt flower are quite useless. Besides, doing this will keep me busy until blute comes.

    To level it, Ben Chenner Trailhead is best. Both regular trees are early and if you have a mining pet you can mine without climbing up so it's sort of on the way. Takes less than 3 min to get 2 tree and 1 mine, leave after getting the trees, don't need to finish the whole run. https://streamable.com/xw0rw

    If you don't need to use trans in most raids, *cough* Miri *cough*, you can use that place to get trans exp while doing it. Plus there's a ledge right at the start so you can use it to trans cancel for all chars.

    I levelled it because when I do the Donegal daily solo, most runs gave me a shiny tree (better than nothing). When I got 90 gathering, most Donegal runs give regular trees (troll rng, but the update for regular tree actually makes this good).

    Most of the ship/CMI runs can be done under 5 mins even on alts and give you 1 tree.

    I haven't tried most of the s2 maps but I feel Earth Shaker Zaka 2nd room is the closest.
