    Even if they have all been found, it'll take some time to desynth enough of them to know for sure. It would be great to not need to be nearly maxed out on Gathering and Perception to actually be able to catch the Olgoi though. With food sitting at 372 Gathering and 300 Perception without FC buffs I kept losing it, ironically I caught both of mine AFTER my food wore off.... Lets also not forget the rare Heat Wave, sat out in Southern Thanalan for almost 10 hours yesterday and only saw it pop 3 times for about 20 minutes each time....

    Just wait until you start desynthing them. Even at 100 desynth skill you only have 70% success rate. Also even when you do succeed the chance of it dropping is low. All that rng hell just to get a vanity piece. I really don't know what SE was thinking when they decided to make this material incredible hard to obtain unless you're an rng god. I quit trying to get the waterproof cotton after I successfully desynthed 10 olgois and the best thing I got out of it was clear demimateria III. I could live with all the rng if they only made it a 70-100% drop after a successful desynth but that's not even the case. It's kinda sad that a piece of vanity is the hardest piece of clothing to obtain in the game. Even clearing turn 9 is a more reachable goal for most players than getting this piece of cotton. I wish luck to the rest you going after this material because you're going to need alot of it.

    Wow a turn 9 sell is 300 mil on your server? I'd love to do sales on your server! I'd never have worry about gil again. Although my point was that there is a greater percentage of players capable of clearing turn 9 than getting one waterproof. In no way was I talking about actually buying turn 9 or waterproof cotton itself. Now if a player wanted to get multiple pieces of waterproof cotton, then percentage plummets even further. As people figure out just how hard it is to obtain waterproof cotton, I can imagine that the prices for it will go up even further. There still isn't a waterproof cotton selling on the market on my server but, I can take a guess that it'll be around 20 mil for someone who actually took a decent time to get it.

    The rarity of this material is pretty disappointing. It seems like you need to be exceedlingly rich, lucky or be a gil buyer to obtain it. -.-

    You make 5 million gil in 4-5 hours? I see you're on Odin, what do the waterproof cotton go for there?

    On Behemoth, there's 2 of them on the market at the moment, one for 4'999'999 gil, one for 5'000'000. Even if I COULD buy this on a whim, this would hardly be a solution for everyone on the server, what with there only being 2 of them.

    I found out some encouraging information. the waterproof cotton can also be obtained from desynthing seabreeze halters. I personally know someone who got it after a few attempts of desynthing. Unfortunately, I don't have a screenshot so you have to take it at face value.
