As far as I know the threads drop nowhere but in Velks.

Colcannon Bacstai - 30 Oct 2003 04:37 GMT The threads only drop in Velks. You're best best is to hunt up at the top, but no way can you solo it at 48 . ;)

In the need of no drop silks. Would be very much appreciated if I could loot any that were going to rot. Will come to you.
You wont have to fight any spiders.
People /ooc for them daily.

Back when I did that shawl, I ooced for them a lot, got maybe 5 threads total that way, the rest were from grouping there, and finding the occasional abandoned corpse with threads on it still.

Threads are made by combining two silks in a sewing kit (same as any other silks), but the ones in CC aren't the special nodrop ones you need to make the shawl. They're good for getting your tailoring up so that when it comes to the combines, you don't waste the useful ones. Best of luck.

Crystalline Silk Threads are dropped by spiders in Velks, they are nodrop, and they are used for the shawl.
Two spiderling silks combined in a kit do yield a thread, which has absolutely nothing to do with what we are talking about here. Two Crystalline Silks, dropped by various spiders in CC, Thurgadin mines, and Velks, are combined to make a Crystalline Silk Swatch. Again, this has nothing to do with what we are talking about however.
Back to the No Drop Threads...
They drop off spiders in Velks, you combine five of them to make one Crystalline Silk Fiber, you then combine three of those fibers with one shardwurm bile to make the Glowing Crystalline Silk, five of the Glowing Crystalline Silk are then combined with your shawl 4 to make shawl 5.
I hope that clears up the confusion you seem to have about the subject.

Greg R - 30 Oct 2003 16:39 GMT Yes, but you can usually go in and give an OOC asking if anyone is willing to let you loot ones off their kills if you can't get a group. Also, make sure your tailoring is well above what you've read for skill level for combining on the last combine. I've failed twice now... The first time with a skill of 130 and the second time with 165 Probably just bad luck but having to collect all these threads and bile again is getting old... lol

[quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > Probably just bad luck but having to collect all these threads and > bile again is getting old... lol I did all my thread combines at 118 tailoring, failed on one of the combines of 5 threads (it is 5, right, been a while), succeeded on all other combines for that shawl, including final combine. Make sure to have a Geerlock when you do the combines.

Don't hate me.

Chris Howe - 31 Oct 2003 17:32 GMT > Ok do I really have to got to Velks to get the 75 spiders or can I get them > from some place safer... > > I am only a 48 Druid. Yep. But if you can get some friends a bit higher level than you to AE the spiders (pull them all to zone at the same time, run fast heals on the person with aggro, and throw in PB AE spells till they're all dead) you can do it in about an hour.
