    Natron

    Hi. Please change natron back to 6 per synth or remove the effervescent water requirement and change it to mineral water. Thanks.

    Yes. The drop rate on effervescent water is pathetic and only a very few mobs drop it to begin with, and there is only a few of those few mobs. This is highly annoying. In fact, how about we just have "water" instead of muddy water, distilled water, mineral water, and effervescent water.

    You can buy Natron, it's not too expensive (~1k).

    I do, however, agree concerning the ingredients :I Muddy Water, Mineral Water, Distilled Water, Effervescent Water... seems a little like overkill.

    I just think 1k is too pricey for such a common ingredient for many crafts. I wouldn't mind they keep the price 1k, and keep the ingredient effervescent if they just changed it back to 6 per. The water is a bit of a hassle.

    will need natron +3 to make all the felt cloth +3 tho. While raptorskin +3 and Alument +3 are so easy to get, natron+3 shouldn't be this 100x harder.

    I agree 1k is too much for an ingredient. I am happy to farm it, but at least make it something you can go farm.

    Probably you guys already know this, but you can go killing the Assassins inside the caves of South Drybone. You can get a bunch of those if you kill regularly =)

    Well... that's if you don't regret killing little smallfolks fellows.

    Thanks for the heads up. I still think it should be changed. As it is, it's a lv 10 alchemy synth, and it has over 8 synths under the level lv 35 as an active ingredient. Some starting as low as level 4. For something fairly low, and fairly common, it's pretty expensive, and the fact they changed it to 1 yield per synth makes this a little bit more ridiculous imo.

    Yes ty for the heads up! ~40% drop rate from what YG says, I'll check it out and see how much of a pita it is to farm from them.

    Don't worry, I have absolutely no problems with killing Lalafell.

    You're welcome!
    Just hope that this change will be implemented with 1.20, as I think they stated further recipe changes during time. For now just hunt =)
