About Yew roots
"The roots of the Yew tree."
> *"The roots of the Yew tree."*
Yew roots are obtained by digging up a fully grown yew tree planted via Farming. A minimum of 60 Farming is required to plant the tree, with root yields scaling with Farming level: 1 root at 60, 2 at 68, 3 at 76, and 4 at 84.
Their main use is as the secondary ingredient for the Antidote+ Herblore potion, providing extended poison immunity. Yew roots can also be combined with crossbow stocks and string in Crafting, or used to make supercompost.
