Holy Ramie Cloth

[CassTristesse]

This recipe requires an absurdly high amount of materials compared to other craft's regeants for gear. Just the time to make this cloth alone, I could have made an finished gear piece from another craft. Hopefully I'm not alone in feeling this way. Worst part is alot of recipes that use this cloth require 2-3 of them to make the actual item.

Let's see... in total?

4 abalathian spring water
4 abalathian mistletoe
6 flax
6 stalks of ramie

That's all for one. Really it's not a big deal unless you're trying to HQ each part individually. If you're pressed for time, you can always flat craft the ingredients. Really, other things have more steep costs in time- hallowed chestnut lumber is quite equivalent, save you don't use any flax equivalent. Making a titanium ingot requires 5 titanium ore, 4 cloud mica, iron ore, and grenade ash, which is a pretty hefty list too. I mean, it's a lot compared to pre-3.0 stuff, but 3.0 inflated the material costs of crafting across the board. To me, it's a bit of prep time, but nothing too obtrusive; I spent more time making felt back in 2.0.

'Course, to me personally, I just hate anything that requires reagents from fishing. Lookin' at you, intelligence dissolvents.

one titanium ingot requires far less crystals to make the ingot compared to the cloth, you have 9 fire crystals for the ingot, while you need 10 water crystals alone for the hallowed water and 17 lightning crystals for the ramie cloth just for one Holy Ramie cloth to be made

Oh, you're talking crystals? Those are cheap on my server, and they're a lot easier to get since 3.0 what with aetherial reduction shenanigans.

'Course, that's just my experiences. Either way I don't see it as a big deal.

I hate everything that starts with "H" and is crafting related

Holy rainbow
Holy ramie
Holy cedar
Hallowed chestnut

Cuz they need those stupid ALC things... Holy water... Hallowed water.... 2 of each.... for one WVR/CRP stupid material...

the water is fairly easy to get: 2 npc items and 2 common mining items

cant see a problem here
