Another trick is to pick up collectables that can be traded for monk Istani armor pieces at the collector in Lahtenda Bog. These can be salvaged for fiber. (Of course, you will need to have a monk character who can do the trade, though you can use another character to farm the collectables.)
Sentient roots, sentient seeds, and iboga petals are easy enough to farm around Plains of Jarin, and salvage into fiber.
Also, all varieties of bramble bow can salvage into fiber. You can farm Pongmei valley for these, plus dragon roots that salvage to fiber, and the chance of direct fiber drops.
If you can solo the big mobs of plants in Holdings of Chokkin, you have a good chance at picking up fiber and fiber salvage items.
