Types of Cloth and Leather
There are 4 types of cloth, with different properties:
- normal
- silverweave -> reflects damage taken from undead a little (not unlike silver)
- goldweave -> acts as a lightsource, slightly increased defense (not unlike gold)
- darkweave -> more defense (not unlike blackrock)
There are 3 types of leather, with different properties:
- normal
- boiled -> lighter, more defense
- studded -> even more defense
Silverweave, goldweave, darkweave, boiled and studded are known as tints or materials. More info on Item Materials here.
How to make Tinted Cloth and Leather
Tinted cloth is made by a skilled tailor with a sewing kit by combining regular cloth with tinted thread.
Tinted Thread
Tinted thread can be made by alchemically combining spiders silk with various ingredients. Gold nuggets for goldweave, silver ore for silverweave and treated blackrock for darkweave. Ask an Alchemist to create tinted thread.
Tinted Leather
Leather and boiled leather is made out of cowhide by a tailor simply by using scissors. Studded leather is made by combining studs and boiled leather by a skilled tailor using a sewing kit. Studs can be made by a skilled tinker from ingots.
Making Regular Items
Simply have either leather or cloth in your inventory, and use (u) a sewing kit. You'll need leather to make leather items and cloth to make cloth items of course.
Making Tinted Items
First you'll need a tinted sewing kit. A skilled tinker can make them from normal ingots. For example, to make silverweave items, you will need a silverweave sewing kit. Use the tinted sewing kit whilst have the matching tinted cloth to make items with that tint.
Eg: to make darkweave items
- have darkweave cloth in inventory
- use darkweave sewing kit
Tinted and magic items require additional skill - please see the Advanced Crafting page for more information.
