Just a thought while someone was asking for an item that could be used much like a whetstone to bring down the diffaculty slotting.


Teasel's have been used for a long time (and are still sometimes used today) to 'provied a natural comb for cleaning, aligning and raising the nap on fabrics, particularly wool'.

It might be intresting if they could be found rarely in harvisting crops (Corn maybe, I dont think that one has a rare drop and they have a simlar look). Not sure if you would want to have the users T&N skill effect how much the Teasel would bring down the clothing's diffaculty or if you would want it to be dependent on the harvisted crop's purity. Either way I thought it an intresting item.

Yes, I like this, will happen in one form or another.

Corn does have a rare drop, Curious Indian Corn. It probably should either be a rare drop off of cotton or any crop and recraft the difficulty based on the users T&N, so that you still want a skilled tailor dealing with all your clothing.

Presumably it'll be a once per clothing item thing, else people will make one outfit and re-roll until they get the best roll. Either that or it should be rare enough to be worth more than the most expensive clothing article it can be used on, though the one time thing seems better.

It does not need to be more expensive the the most expensive clothing if it was just be a reroll because it could possibly make it worse. It should still be very rare though, the kind of thing you only would want to use on very nice clothing. It could also have a chance to break a slot like an artifact 10-50 T&N or something.

Yeah, it should be a roll for changing the difficulty of clothing say based on threads and needle + an random number, but I think it should be used just once, not per clothing, but that the item itself has a one time use. Perhaps it can be found cleaning cotton. Or purchased from the clothing NPC.

Yeah it should definitely be one use like the whetstone.

And it is!

i got one before the rollback, didn't use but maybe I'll get lucky again

Mine only improved the difficulty by 3 to 22.
