These are a very good item to farm if you wanna make some Gil. As per usual, the higher level the spider the higher droprate. At 75, your best bet is Boyahda tree (as long as no one is exping off them).
They sell for quite a bit, but dont stack :( But if your inventory is full with them, whos complaining? :)
In all the time I camped Dune Widow in East Altepa I got one off a regular spider. Every time you kill Dune Widow it drops 3 though. I was subbing THF, too.
I thought about maybe farming these tomorrow, being 15k a piece. Is it a rare drop? If it is, I'm just going to keep camping Spook and try to provoke it or whatever before the gilsellers do..
got about 10 yesterday while lvling, in boyada, i only got 3 :\ but i got my lvl 54, so im happy ^^ and 45K with lvl 54 is ALWAYS nice, lol. the thf was stealing them pretty easily also.
yes spider in three have a better drop rate of spider web than in altepa, it's very usefull for clothcraft only way to make rainbow thread who is very usefull for lvl 75+ clothcraft.
Giant Spiders in Eastern Altepa DO drop spider web as well. However, they drop it so rarely as to be ridiculous to attempt to farm from them. The drop rate could be as high as 1 in 50. After going onto my 12th time camping Dune Widow, I got one spider web from a giant spider.
Even with TH2 this is a very, very, very rare drop. Think Carbuncle's Ruby and you get the idea. Even stealing this item is very rare.
But then if it was a common drop it wouldn't sell for 7k now would it?

I saw this once in my Widescan. But at that time, was in a JP PT. We can't kill it. I saw a high level PLD and told him the POS. Told me PT that I wanted to take a Screenshot, hoping I would post it here in Alakhazam. Anyway, at least the PT understood what I meant.
