Help please with Fleece.

Is there a new recipe for Fleece? I do not see it on any of the sites. The old recipe requires training I do not have.

the old recipe for fleece exists still, I do not know what it requires though. the fleece is now dropped directly from the sheep though instead of the skins

Karakul Fleece is now dropped from Brutal Sheep under the new system.
Fleece is dropped form a lower level sheep. I can't recall which one specifically at the moment.

Fleece is a high lvl tanner recipe, available somewhere around level 40. Only Sheepskin is in the synth.

I know Karakul Fleece is direct now but I have not seen Fleece drop only sheepskin. Is there a Mob that drops Fleece?

it should be the ewes I thought? hmmm. I've gotten 2 stacks from weaving locals though!

Oh wait! I found them. I was farming Lost Lamps. Damn it! Thanks for the help.

No problem~

Hey so when I said I found them, It was really only one. And I can only find them really far apart. Lost Ewes. Also have not received any fleece drops. I think the Ewes you were talking about were Wild Ewes? And a guy posted on Yellow Gremlin, Oct. 31 2011, that Wild Ewes were removed. So I guess I could still use some help here XD. Are they some where else or a new mob that drop fleece directly if not only way to get fleece is an old recipe and local leves.

There are a few large groups of l40ish ewes that drop the fleece between camp glory and the zone to the black shroud in coerthas.

those are black ones... I think he wants regular fleece

some 40er weaver leves drops fleece, too

L43 or 44 Leatherworking synth:

1 Sheepskin -> 3 Fleece

You can buy sheepskin for like 1080 from the guild

The sheepskin for 3 fleece recipe is an old recipe that requires training I do not have and I do not want to take the time to get the marks for this training if there will be no point to having training soon. :(

the trainings actually do not do anything anymore.

I am pretty sure training from old recipes are still in effect other wise I would not have so much trouble doing the recipe now.

perhaps it is a little high for you then? When I do a local for a dated recipe now the training shows up white instead of green now.

I am r50 so I hope not! lol

wat. I dont see how you are having trouble then? maybe see if support helps if you have not already?

Um I bought a bunch of fleece for felt at 400 per in the market wards.if you need out for a synth, maybe it's easier to just buy them?

bird I she is refering to regular fleece. felt uses karakul fleece silly :P

AND 400 PER!? SCREW FARMING NOW

I can usually complete the recipe but if I want to HQ its an unstable nightmare.

So is it safe to say no mob drops Fleece? And only way I am going HQ these is if i rack up marks for training that will mean nothing soon enough. /sigh

Oops I meant woolen yarn. And uh...it was 200 per. Regular fleece though. Sorry PP.

BAH HUMBUG. Guess it is time to plan another mass genocide of the meeping kind

What is meeping?

That's the sound the sheep make :D

This is what amuses me about crafting atm. In XI it was goldsmith that was the toughest to level, but since mining is the way it is it's pretty easy. When you look at every craft Cooking/Alchemy have fishing, Carpenter has Botanist, Weaver "kind" has botanist but only through the secondary tool now which can make it a tad tougher and you have gold/armorer/blacksmith with Miner. Then you have leathworker, yea there aren't any gathering concepts that allow one to collect skins or fur for use of crafting so that basically comes down to mass murdering a group of mobs for the item or buying it off the MW. IMO I feel that leatherworking is the most expensive craft to level because of it's lack of gathering parallel.

It would be nice if they added something later on though while in Yoshida's last comment he mentioned how gatherer's gather, fighters can gather to because they can obtain loot that gatherers can't such as bomb ash, and fur/skins for leathworkers. Maybe as things advance there will be changes to certain loot pools and while I'm not saying that no materials loots should drop with fighting classes I do hope they at least consider implementing a gathering class to compliment the leathworkers lack of assistance in that field.

I heard rumors of a shepherd DOL class once. Can't recall where I heard this.

FNC = Fencer
ENF = Enforcer
MSK = Musketeer
MYS = Mystic
ACN = Archanist
HRV = Harvester (Might be old Botanist name)
SHP = Shepherd

They could just be placeholder names for disciplines they had ideas for though I do recall that there were actually abilities for the arcanist class which would be the 3rd DoM. Never know though they could surprise us with some new classes soon enough, or we might have to wait til 2.0 for it, though it would kind of surprise me since they seem to be doing a bulk of the class adjustments this VU I imagine that afterwards they would be able to expand the DoM and maybe even the DoL list.

Though to go off on another tangent. I think it would be neat if DoL were more like "advanced classes" where you needed one basic DoL at rank 50 before you could dive into the next tier of gathering lol. Not like it has to be mining/logging/fishing kinda thing they could be unique and have something like a land discipline that can discover holes in space and investigate it to find unique relics and items that can be synthed into unique items lol.

If you're just looking for fleece in bulk, I would suggest just taking a step outside Limsa towards the first camp and go on a rampage for about half an hour or so. Then Hasty Hand all the skins you get.

Im trying to get High quality not mass on it.

The mob that drops fleece is the brutal sheep. you can find them in coerthas around downy dunstan and when runnung towards owls nest.

Sorry if I was not clear, talking about just regular fleece. The brutal sheep drop the k. Fleece
