You can do it too. There's no reason for all of the complaints about how hard it supposedly is to get this stuff.

the same thing i do everytime
i also teach other people about this......and they not very happy bec seem tedious while other very grateful
And if we could get fleece I'd be a happy clam.
Though deep down I know 3:1 and 5:1 shard ratio is still the bottleneck in the game when it takes just as long to gather them at 50 as it did at 5.
Rewards are randomized. If you repeat leves while leveling, you'll often see rewards of 7 shards vs 56 shards from the same leve. Additionally, you'll often see materials or vintage precursors. This is a great way to get diremite webs if this particular leve is rewarding them for you, but it likely wouldn't be worth "farming" the leve to try to get diremite webs to come up as a reward and wasting your allowances unless you've already hit 50 with all your crafting classes (best way to spend your leves).
It's worth checking and worth doing if the web reward is available, but it's not a solution to the spawn limitations and bots.
Just because it isn't available every time doesn't mean it isn't worth it. You get many leve allowances every day. Using a few of them to get the diremite web reward options is not a big deal. There are at least 6 different leves that reward web. If you do a leve or two, come back and check the rewards to see if they've changed. If you do more than one craft, alternate between craft leves for better efficiency.
When I can get many many stacks with extreme ease in a very short amount of time and then see people complaining on the forum about how hard it supposedly is to get these things, I can't help but sigh and facepalm. I made a video showing how absurdly easy it is. So, yes. It IS a solution.
if you have problems with bots. open a trade with em. they could attack anymore
they die, and you can farmatm they dont know how to respawn :>
/fuck the system of rtm
Its probably not worth it, you dont want to spend your leve allowances to get items to level up in the craft, because you are setting yourself up to not have leve allowances when you need them around level 45-50. + an above poster mentioned that you can't just keep doing the leve for shards until diremite webs pop up, as once again, you're wasting precious leve allowances. TIME is also a factor, if you're trying to powerlevel a craft and have to wait for the leve to have the reward you want, then you are losing TIME.
Personally, I save all leve allowances until my DoH crafts are all at 50. I was able to use 60 out of my 80 leve allowances to take CRP from 25-50 with only having to craft a few lumber out of logs per level.
Moral of the story, diremite webs aren't the issue, Fleece is the issue, as it is used by iLvl55+ items and all other crafts towards higher levels

You're so very wrong about shard gathering. I am at somewhere around 900-1000 shards an hour, which you can't do at 5.
(1) At 26 mining/botany you have access to the level 30 gathering nodes which yield 2x shards. It's one node out of the four for the level 30 nodes.
(2) At 20 mining/botany for 400 gp you get 2 extra shards (extended to crystals at 40 and clusters at 50) per swing. It takes about 3-4 minutes to gain 400 gp. Mining gets 3 of them, Botany the other three, 1 for each shard type, and they can be shared.
All farming areas have four nodes. Two of the four will always be spawned as you gather. This means once you are level 26 you can chose areas for the shards you want, where you can farm 3 of the 4 nodes. The idea is to farm the 2x shard node once out of every three nodes, instead of once out of every four. This way you are getting a 4th node free every 3 nodes you gather from.

Spent last Sunday with my SO farming diremite against two bots. A warp bot and a stand in place script bot. While we were able to claim a solid seven or eight spawns, it was stressful as hell. We used to have fun farming because we would just relax and chat with friends. Against bots though you have to take steps to get the first instant tag constantly. It's frustrating if you get any type of lag.
People who white knight RMT and bots because 'they have no affect on the economy or anyone else' can shove off.
But keep in mind that the areas with the 2x shard nodes do not have a 5 gather attempt node nearby...The idea is to farm the 2x shard node once out of every three nodes, instead of once out of every four. (...) Edit: Also, if possible without losing gp gain, you can use the 2x shard on the 5 gather attempt nodes instead of the normal four, increasing shard gain by about 20-30 an hour.
