Not that it may help much, but Waterproof Cotton can also be obtained from The Lone Ripper, fished up in Halfstone during gales. Got one on a desynth.



Actually, that helps me a ton! Thanks so much! (I'm not the one who desynths my fish, so I've been looking for a tradable fish that can yield Waterproof Cotton)

Can people please stop derailing this thread with tangential whining? It's really off topic, and really irritating to read over and over. And over. And over...

dont be rediculous, there are plenty ways of getting the cotton, with some patience even the dumbest player could get one within in 1-2 weeks


I'm not being ridiculous at all, it shouldn't be as difficult to obtain these things as they are now because it's for VANITY GEAR! As in, it adds no ingame advantage whatsoever except that it makes you look pretty. Such items should be easy to obtain for as much of the ingame demographic as possible without shoehorning in dumb artificial difficulty. Ergo, I don't think the items should be rare because there's no point for them to be. If it was a craftable item that gave you an edge in coil or PvP or whatever i'd understand the mechanics put in place to limit the amount being pumped into the game like with coil lockouts and such for coil gear, but since it isn't then it's silly to make these things rare items. SE should just make the desynth swimsuits and the waterproof cotton obtainable through the upcoming summer event and be done with it instead of this asinine artificial difficulty mechanic.



Another fish has been found that can desynth to Waterproof Cotton: Sweetnewt, in Lavender Beds, probably catchable from 11pm to 3am (maybe just 1am-3am). It has only been caught in Fog so far, and the bait is a mooch off of Ala Mhigan Fighting Fish (Midge Baskets have the best chance of catching them).
