This cloth requires x3 Worsted Thread

Worsted Thread requires x2 Halgai Mane and x2 Manzanai (sp? closed game already) hair, along with natron.

Most of the Serge recipes call for 2-3 pieces of this cloth.

The issue is that the drop rate on those items is insultingly low. I spent 30 minutes today killing the mobs while my retainer was going to fetch a paltry 7 pieces of them (his iLvl is still too low to get x10 each hour.)

So a single cloth requires 12 items that have a drop rate of about 10-20% on mobs that are NOT easy to kill (so it's not like the old Fleece days where a 50 could melt down eight at a time np) Most recipes also need a thread, so make that 16 drops.

In comparison, the similar items around that level for GSM, BSM, and ARM all require rocks from the ground. Farming up a single recipe's worth takes literally five minutes if you have the appropriate DoL class. Leather only requires 3 rare drops, not 12.

Please consider either increasing the drop rate of these items, or making the Worsted Thread recipe for thread only use 1 of each!
