Thread: Got milk?
"I want your most expensive drink bartender!"
"Right one milkshake coming up"
I've been working with a BE to produce tissues for me. This has worked our really for her an I both. The only major problem I've run accross is in the passive tranqulizers tissue which requires milk.
I know of one place to harvest milk, but it is camped out by several people. I have found another place, but so far only found 3 milks of 2 differrent types. Since the resource changes every 24 hours, I can not produce the CH cloth that gives the taming bonuses.
While this issue is more of a BE problem, it does affect the Tailor profession. I'd like to see one of several options happen:
1. Change the resource required to make the cloth so it becomes a more readily available item.
2. Make it a little easier to find milk. Make it a dropped item from a mid-level npc. A friend of mine did find some from a high level mob on Dant once. But never after that.
3. Make it an item Scout types can harvest from some high level herbavor creatures or an item that can be looted from high level herbavor creatures.
If anyone has a good place to find milk outside the Lost Village of Durban on Talus, please let me know.
If that happenedI couldnt sell a vest and swoop helm set with +14 +14 on both items for 1.2 million ,,so I vote no ,,,hehe,,but to be serious:
My experience is that it doesnt change every 24 hours,,it changes with the normal resource shift like any resource does and I have even seen the exact milk spawn for two weeks, so I believe you are incorrect when you say it shifts every 24 hours.
And last ,,having a resource that is rare,,hard to get and therefore coveted by some is exactly what the game needs,,in fact we need more like it not less, and certainly not easier to get. Some items should be rare and expensive. When everything is common and easy to obtain it all gets boring a lot quicker.
The milk problem is extremely annoying. Its one of the most frustrating things for me as a biotailor. Eggshave a large time sink to harvest them but at leastanyone iscapable of doing so on their own time.Its takes 25 milk to make one taming tissue and humanoids drop one randomly once in a blue moon. Im not sure how often this talus place drops it but iv come across 2 milks in the 6 months iv been playing and I hunt regularly.
I really feel for the poor chefs. One whole tree of their profession takes milk.

If you are looking for eggs, try searching the animal lairs.
I've found tons and tons of eggs in the weirdest lairs too. Who knew a gurrcat laid eggs?
BE motto - "To be or not to be? What was the question?"
yeah, I've found at least 100 eggs in 2 hours hunting. gave them all to my friend..
about the foraging, I'll give it a try for you chefs later today, you really need some love
