Alchemy gathering skills?

[Rano]

<p>I am a 10 Scholar right now, going for Alchemist...what gather skills should I focus on?  Thanks!</p>

<p>The best thing to do is to get the harvesting cloak quest at the isle of mara from Qho and then level all of your harvesting skills at each tier as you reach the tier.</p>
