Hunter's Cotton  

They're used in upgrading Ranger AF2, So, they are gotten by people intending to upgrade their pieces, or if they have ranger friends, which is why some people buy stacks, others are just weird and like to buy rare looking cloth =P

Hunter's Cotton is cheaper to make than Green Ribbons. About 40-50k less per stack actually. The only downside is: While silk cloth is plentyful, Carapace Powder is rarely found in the AH and if you try to make it yourself you will soon find out that the Beetle Shell supply isn't quite what you hoped for either.

So, in conclusion, you'll save lots of gil but it will take twice as much time. Most likely even more.

soo if this caps @ 63 (am not 63 yet tho) can any1 help me on what to craft next @ 63 coz i dnt no what to craft when am @ 63
any help???

If you dont have bonecraft to 21, my suggestion would be to lvl bonecraft from 15-21 with the Carapace Powder receipe (wind, 2X beetle shell). This way, you can save some money by making your own Carapace Powders, get bone to 21, AND have a readily avilable supply of one of the ingredients for this synth.

and btw, this synth rocks in comparison to the green ribbon. Much less gil lost ^^

I noticed someone said "do not make these" and their reason being the what you can make back on them. I have made many items, where I would just sell off to an NPC anyway cause I needed room and they weren't selling.

My adive would be to go ahead and make these. The cap is 1 lvl higher than Green Ribbons, but they are easier to make, and I see more skill ups more often, than with the silks. You might not get good money back, but you're also no spending a fortune on silks, or spending ages trying to farm the silks or cocoons.

Please do not make these assuming that you can gain back any more than the 209 gil each an NPC will offer you. There is almost no market for them, as anyone high enough to need one probably has a clothcrafter buddy who will make it for him.
I have made 3 stacks of these now, using 3.5 stacks of carapace powder and 10 stacks of cotton thread and raised my clothcrafting skill 2.4 levels (55.5 - 57.9). The skillups seem rather slow and sporadic, but the material cost is far less than silk cloth, especially if you're prepared. Personally, I clear the AH of Beetle Shells and Goblin/Moblin Armors, turning the shells in to carapace powder, and the armor into cotton threads. This brought my bonecrafting up to 21, and I tend to save money on the cotton threads. Also, buying them from the Selbina Guild is very effective, and I've been doing that while I take a few jobs thorugh Valkurm. Even doing this, the cotton threads are harder to come by cheaply than the beetle shells. I intend to get level 58 and have a 2x GP day (Turn in GP items to cap, change rank, do it again), then take it slowly again.

hi am lvl 57 clothcraft and am busy tryin to make hunters cotton but non AH have any of the powder thing av checked everywhere and non have it soo i have to get my bonecraft up to make it :( and am in bismark well i hope i can get to make the powder soon ;)

Does this recipe require any subs like bone or alchemy?

since they are stackable they are probobly gonna be apart of a new recipt in an update or even the expansion. it only takes one thread for the af+1 and only 5 for the complete set, there is no other logic why it is stackable if it wasn't gonna be used for further recipts. this is what im counting on anyway have about 5 stacks froms skilling up, and these things are a ***** to sell.
if you sell them to npc u loose about 4k in materials. sure its still cheap but i dont wana sell to npc then find out that its up to 50k a stack after the next update.

kill either pygamois in tharongi canyon or harvestin giddeus.

1 lightning > 2 saruta cotton = 1 cotton thread.

hope this helps

It seems to have little purpose at the moment other than skilling up.

Maybe it will be used in armour for future updates (blue mage armour maybe)

Im wondering weather you could make a profit by selling it to a NPC (will have to try it later)at least it would be less of a loss than making green ribbons.
