Why is it the red and black threads are alot rarer than the whites? Even hunting Red and Black Boars it is very slow to gather any decent amount whereas getting a few 100 white threads... Not a problem. Think this needs a little look into, even if it is just to reduce the rate at which white threads drop from WEB's in STKR and the Boars in KH room in BDD. As it stands right now it is so easy for warriors to make their class specific kit whereas Taos and Wizzies it takes quite alot longer.

I know am not the only one experiencing this, few guild members puzzled by the difference in drop rates as well.

It's true actually. Part of it is probably due to the fact that ST7th only has White Boars in, as does BDD. But it is a bit annoying. I needed to collect 10-15 threads a while ago to make the basic shoes and it was horrible. It's a toss up between killing every white/black boar on each floor (and sometimes getting zero anyway), or hunting for spider webs and fruits. I'm not even going to bother looking for 120 more to make the hardened versions because sod that.

I've been mainly hunting ST 7th so I've not had much of an issue in regards to black threads, certainly they drop a lot less than Whites though (Whtieboars dropping one most of the time)

St7th has white boars and black maggots which both drop them, plus moths which drop black and with how heavily st7th is hunted its no shock that white threads are abundant.

Tho can't disagree with the drop rate being a joke, I have seen more people with heaven armours then hard shoes.

It's a waste of time even bothering for an extra what, AC1-0 and MAC1-0?

I'd really like to see more craftable items, but only if they require sensible numbers of ingredients etc.

I made my Boots and Belt on my Tao just for the 2 more base SC they give you. Going for the (H) versions would eventually happen over time as I pick up damn near everything but by the time I can make my first (H) boots I could make 10x of the warrior equivalent.

I'd also like to see more craft-able items but only if the numbers are not silly and the items are actually half decent in stats. Ever seen anyone wearing a bug set? Or a bone set? They are utter useless.

Yeah, I made the basic ones too as the extra base is good. But the upgrade only gives an extra 1-0 AC and AMC and needs 120? threads so it's a total waste of time.

It's 210 threads in total for the upgraded version of both the boots and belt. I'll get that done in about 4 months at this rate.
