Go camp the bedroom on the dead side of Guk. Pull the deadly black widows
and you will be sooooo full of that damn spider silk - it won't be funny.
You can also pull vampire bats and have stacks and stacks of bat wings. I
master loot for my party and the sheer number of these things made me turn
on fast destroy for the first time. You need a party for this spot and got
to watch for trains.

From: Mike Roach <mroach@...>

I have a question for you Kitasi (or anyone else), where do
you get your
spider silks? Do you actually have to go out and kill
innumerable giant
spiders, or is there a place you can just buy these and cut
out all the
running around?

For example...I have been working on baking lately and I had
saved up about
80 fresh fish I had caught and after trying to kill bats
(for their wings)
on the order of obtaining about 80 batwings for "fish rolls"
I finally gave
up and found a merchant selling batwings for cheap enough
that I "ate" the
loss and bought a backpack full. This is what I would like
to do with
spider silks instead of running all over the place at level
29 killing
spiders like some kind of wild neurotic arachnophobe.

Hints, suggestions?
