Thread: How rare are spinner blades?
Now, this seems like a cool gadget, along with the other ones. It makes all the different grind material into one large stack. 200 stats down the board isn't that great at all for any crafting profession. But for us rangers, who utilize hide/bone for traps and camps, it is very useful. But we're not all that common. But the main question is, is it THAT rare?

They're TOO rare. Some recipes take smelted metal so the metal smelters are useful and might pay for themselves, but the 200-stat creature resources are only good for someone who's willing to take a BIG hit in quality in order to a milk-related factory run. (You cannot recycle eggs.) If the creature recyclers were good for more than taking small stacks of grind to make larger stacks of grind, I'd see the rarity being reasonable, but that's not the case.
On Eclipse, they start at 250k and go up to 1.5 million. And they're harder to get now, due to the silly "Missions will always be your level or higher" thing.
They're not too bad - only about as rare as chicken teeth. ![]()
Seriously, as a loot item, you'd be better off attempting to find an exceptional weapon or a +25 food experimentation tape than you are a spinner blade.
I got them running hidden dagger missions out of Tyrena. It took me roughly 30 sets of missions to get them. They're there... just rare.
Right now I'm suffering through looking for the Agitator Motor. It's all I need ... and Canyon Corsair Captains just don't appear to be dropping them.
True. I'm wanting the creature recycler simply tocombine hides and bone into one big stack of each. I make so many traps and camps with what hide/bone I have that it would be very convenient to continue with the same schematic. That way I can just combine what hide and bone I have into the same crap.
