125 Dust and 125Hide can be farmed in no time at all if the traders are out of raw mats for the artisans. One of the easiest and cheapest weeks yet.

-_-

He's there for a whole week. Wait 1 day, or even 2. Presto! Cheap materials from the trader if you CBA to farm them.

jaap, there's a rare material trader in the same zone offering elonian leather squares

5 tanned hides, 5 dusts, 50g per elonian leather square

Thalador Doomspeaker · Jul 19, 2010, 06:24 PM // 18:24

Ah, this will be an easy week for me. Already had 5 Elonian leather squares in my storage along with 100+ piles of glittering dust and tanned hide squares for the artisan.

Can artisans even be "out of stock?" I thought they were "creating" the mats out of the ones you give them.

Nope, no such thing as an artisan out of stock. I bet someone showed up without the materials and thought it was the Artisan's fault

.

well i guess i judged to early then

but i still don't like it that they pick rare materials as item for Nicholas.

soofsuperspeed · Jul 20, 2010, 07:13 AM // 07:13

Nicolas has lost his mind

Thanks for the tip about the artisan, it's a lot cheaper that way.

He needs to make pretty new straps for poor ol' Yakkington.

Easiest week ever for me. Was debating on whether to get Elite Rogue or not on my Mesmer and had a bunch of these in stock. Decided against the armor and supplied my friends with plenty of Elonian Leather to take care of Traveler for all of us this week.

hmm, check all material traders in ALL campaigns (and EotN).
The ones in more popular towns/outposts will be out first.
I actually had the last Dust in Henge of Denravi and then the trader in Saitung Harbor had the rest i needed.

Same thing after Mesmer upgrade, sudden run on some Mesmer runes.
Rune Traders in less popular places still had them when Rune Traders in popular places were out (at the time i wanted to get some).

Where do you farm what monsters then? for many fast drops that salvage into tanned hides?

http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Contains_hide

All those have hide, but can't decide what enemies are best to farm.

Edit: Wasted some time farming grawl, but never mind. I went from town to town and bought bit by bit. Got all I need to craft enough stuff for Nicholas.

even if now you're done, for future reference I think charrs are the best source, with all that skins they drop...

Pick an area , vanquish it,salvage everything, job done

or just play the game for a few days picking drops and salvaging them and you will have more than enough.

or feather farm in Jayla bluffs for an hour and you'll have a fair amount of hide with loads of feathers and minor runes as an added bonus, more than enough to buy mats even if you havent salvaged enough yourself.

Nonsense, it's global.

I got nearly a stack clearing Grenth's Footprint outside Deldrimor War Camp. Dwarven Armors tend to salvage into hide. I also ended up with 3 greens in the process. One was really interesting (I'll edit the screenshot and post it later) because the ranger boss actually dropped 2 greens simultaneously.

**cosyfiep** · Jul 20, 2010, 07:01 PM // 19:01

doing the WiK stuff seems to net me plenty of armors that all salvage into hides ...and then in eye all those piles of elemental dust!! FINALLY they have a decent use (other than cluttering up my storage). Had enough from those to make enough elonian squares to refill my material storage!
so yeah pretty easy week again.
