Weaver 14 (Crafting 26, Control 17, Mag. Crafting 21) using Iron needle and Guild Clothshop. 7/7 success. Lowest finishing Durability was 10, highest was 58. I was careful to use both Maker's Muse and Tender Touch abilities during each synthesis. Have to admit it got close to a fail a couple of times.
I have issues making this at lvl 17 weaver, with guild clothship access. Glitched game is glitched. its ridiculous. this is HEMP - we should be able to make this at the same levels we would be wearing HEMP. otherwise it's pointless. The durability drops on this are insane - every synth, weather successful or fail, i get a -15 to -20 durability decrease. I'm convinced this is just a square enix glitch from hell.
Fix this please - I'm lvl 16 weaver with all craft gears + Iron Needle. I still make 1 of this out of 7 tries!
An iron needle is probably no better or even worse than the lvl 12 needle at lvl 16 - just FYI. Since it is a R22 tool (I believe) there probably isn't any point in using it till at least R19
I know I won't be busting out my iron alembic or iron saw until R19 anyway
