Price are up,i need money.
So I need a place to farm it(and probably a build,but hey SF is the solution anyway)
I heard of some thing you can do with Minotaur Horns in Crystal Desert,but i dont understand it.
Btw.there is an old thread about it(3 years old) and it didnt have any good inforamtion about it.
I guess also the place will be in factions.(as materials droop crazily good there)

Luxon garbs salvage into linens farm the luxon assasins that spawn from the halycon job quest. I use 55 with spiteful spirit, I don't think SF will work due to their touch attack skill but im sure you can find a way.

Either:
-buy them from other players for ~3kish or wait at traders, buy linen when its supply is here
OR
-wait until Friday or Saturday and then buy them, price should be down and the supply should be up, who knows.

- A roundabout way of acquiring Linen is to farm Minotaurs in Crystal Desert for Minotaur Horns, then trade them for Elementalist's Gloves from Fenster the Golden. Expert salvaging the gloves has a fair chance of yielding some Bolts of Linen.
- Linen has also been expert salvaged from Elementalist's Gloves from Dreaz Bowem and Elementalist's Leggings from Palben Tunne.

I spent a long time a while back farming Jade Brotherhood and Am Fah in the Street Justice quest. Salvaging Am Fah armour often yields a lot of Linen (not to mention they drop it themselves).

Having sat on it for a year I've made a tidy profit on that now.

As far as farming builds go, any of these work just fine (amongst others, no doubt):

The rare material traders are out of linen and most players are charging ridiculous prices in Trade because it's this week's Traveler item.

So...just get it from an artisan for 5 plant fibers and 200 gold. The Wiki will tell you which Prophecies artisans will do this for you. It's not cheap doing it this way, but at least you get your linen. In fact, if prices stay this absurd, it might even turn into a halfway decent way to make money.

Yikes, I didn't think of that. I had plant fibers on hand, so I didn't check the mat traders.
