#How do I get solid black clothing?

I heard bound straps leather creates solid black clothing. I tried making a striking peacoat with the bound straps leather (and jana thread cloth. not sure if there was something else I could have used for thread that would have gotten me solid black??) and it turned out bright white 😦 I don't understand...

I made gloves and shoes out of Jana and Grendel and ended up with orange toned brown instead of white or green (I think grendel usually makes green? I made a dress out of grendel with Hunbaba and it came out green)

i got a green one to from some named hide pretty sure it's a chroma green missing the texture to be honest

tier also matters, tier 2 predator hide is red, tier 3 predator hide is blue

Mostly out of grendel that I farmed from ascended hunt swamp, 'cause I'd been previously hunting hunbaba hoping the color would be cool. Hunbaba leather was that yucky orangey brown. So, I'm reasonably sure the dress is majority grendel and the game notes it in the paranthesis.

why thank you drella! i almost used the humbaba, i'll save myself the time and not even do it. everything has been so.. beige. and i'm dying lmaoo. did you also use the grendel on the hat for the green band?

#

also, what tier grendel are you find in asc hunt swamp, and what difficulty did you have it set to?

#

were they all same tier regardless?

I'll double check, I'm in my abeyance realm now

turbid rapids
#

okie!

The leftover grendel drops I have say that they're tier 2. The druid grendel thread doesn't have a tier, but the regular grendel thread (i'm guessing dropped from the grendel brutes?) is tier 2.

i see! thank you so much ❤️

Need to do lvl 220 swamps to get the tier 3 thread. If used as the cloth on the dress it will be green but it picks up a sheen like it's now made out of pvc. Luminous fiber is the only item I've found that will get you the base color of items before the patch. If you could somehow collect enough to make 36 of it to make 3 fabric and add some other thread to make 3 luminous fiber lining then that matronly gown should have the black trim. Super frustrating that we need to sacrifice so many stats for the sake of fashion now.

if you look around you can find thread arcane advanced arcane wick that i understand makes black as well.

i was getting them from bound at night in extreme diff assension relms

#

arcan wick and advanced arcane wick are made

#

i am not sure what arcane wick color gets but the advanced goes black i got a pure black druadic top hat

dry matrix
#

I just made one with tier one predator thread and it still turned out bright white, so i'm not sure if this is a glitch or not?

forest tusk
#

its a mix one is primary color other is secondary

#

like for my top hat the leather was primary and secondary was the thread

#

so bound leather with advanced arcane wick got me pure black

#

what leather did you use?

dry matrix
#

I think the cloth determines the primary color on the striking peacoat. I used jana thread for the cloth last time and it got a bright white. I used tier 1 predtor thread for it this time and still got bright white.

for the leather portion, I used bound leather the first time and the secondary / accents color was black. Used Jana leather for it this time and the secondary / accent color was light brown this time.

#

yea the one that gives primary color is generally at the top of the list on the bench

I just couldn't figure out what to use to get the primary color to be black. Per your previous comment it sounds like advanced wick thread (i just don't have enough of it). But i'm wondering if the primary color on the striking peacoat is bugged for me if I keep getting white no matter the thread i use?

forest tusk
#

nah its not i made a greenish blueish one for my brother

dry matrix
#

what did you use to get that color?

forest tusk
#

was tier three predator cloth and i used jana Thread

turbid rapids
#

@dry matrix i saw someone say that the bound straps/leather or something like that also comes out black

forest tusk
#

yea bound is black

#

advanced arcane wick thread is black as well

dry matrix
turbid rapids
#

have you tried advanced bound fiber?

forest tusk
#

then your only way is adavnaced arcane wick thread

#

yea it sucks as me and three of ym friends in the same relm so we all effected

dry matrix
#

it does sound like advanced arcan wick thread is the way to go though, thank you. And no worries, I do have a couple of friends who can help me farm too, but i hope you get your base back

there is a card

#

if you go into a private high end extreme biome

#

that maleficant card i belive will help you in your farm

#

that is if you take the time to play the card

#

can always invite your friends to that relm to help you with them to

dry matrix
#

yeah i have the card but haven't played it because it makes me anxious lol but i guess i gotta do it for fashion ✨

^ there's a screenshot someone put that has black on black on the matronly gown

#

might have to @ april to ask what she used specifically

#

it might be a different tier pred meat

forest tusk
#

she said she didnt remember what she made the lining out of

turbid rapids
#

ahh i see.

dry matrix
#

I think i saw a comment saying T3 predator meat

forest tusk
#

my base was rolled back almost two weeks back.

#

im literally back to where i was with 8 hours played.

#

i am further progressed on the char i was messing with while waiting off that char for the roll back

#

t3 predator so far makes a sort of dark vblue-gray

#

I saw someone say advanced arcane threads , but so far ive only ever found three of those

I made this gown with Rainbow Trout Cloth, and the lining was made with Redeye Bass Fabric, but I think any of the fish will make the material shimmery green/black.
