Talk:Pile of Glittering Dust

I would think a Maguuma Mane salvages into fur square or something. --Karlos 16:52, 19 November 2005 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you'd think so, but strangely enough, it salvages in glittering dust. Maybe because they haven't washed their manes in ages or something... --theeth 17:03, 19 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I guess their magical creatures like the tooth fairy. --Karlos 17:16, 19 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Uhh Karlos, about the Tooth Fairy, there is something I have to tell you...You might want to sit down for this =D --William Blackstaff 05:04, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

anyone know the best place to farm for dust? this would be usefull information


 * I'd suggest the Fog Nightmares in areas like The Black Curtain and Kessex Peak they will routinely drop 15-25 piles from a single creature. --Rainith 12:40, 23 February 2006 (CST)


 * Just today, Heavy Tengu Armor from a boss in the Divinity Coast mission salvaged into 9 piles. Should it be added to the list? --Chiaro 20:57, 7 March 2007 (CST)O

Holiday collectors
Didn't the traders run out of this during the canthan new year because it was used in making all the fireworks?
 * I forgot, they did RT | Talk  - A joyous wintersday to all 17:19, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, they did. We farmed tokens anyway. :D [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 17:21, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Silk and dust
Salvaging a bolt of silk gives out 3 piles of glittering dust. I don't know where to add that information, though... 86.211.62.186 09:43, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Just confirmed that it can salvage out of Silk, and added it to the table ;] --  Scar  -- Contributions  † 13:01, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Special Note
Silk tends to have a comparatively low sale price for a rare crafting material. Since it salvages into dust, which has a high price as a result of its usage in three different highly desirable consumables, the best use of silk may be to convert it into dust for use in consumables, which can net as much as 3 to 4 times the sale price of the silk when compared to buying dust from traders. &mdash;The preceding unsigned comment was added by OBloodyHell (contribs).


 * Perhaps thisshould be moved to Silk? I disagree with the revert as the note is talking about finding bolts of silk and salvaging them, rather than selling them. King Neoterikos 00:00, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * That seems a bit fluctional man. Isn't that a bit like recording the cost of an ambrace or an ecto man? I mean man, especially if you put it on the wiki then more people are going to do it and it will quickly become untrue man. No distinguishing features 00:00, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The way you reworded it, it definately should be on Silk now man. No distinguishing features 00:05, 4 February 2009 (UTC)


 * (edit conflict) Firstly, fluctional is not a word. Secondly, it is already on silk, but since the two are very closely related the note should be here, too. Thirdly, we are not listing prices, so what is being said is perfectly correct. The difference between what I am saying and what you are saying is like saying ectos are valuable as opposed to listing an approximate price for ectos. The former is correct, the latter is not. Understand? King Neoterikos 00:09, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * First result on google says that it's a real word man. I think you knew what I meant anyway, so why you be hating? It actually is similar to listing aproximate prices man because both the price of Glittering Dust and Silk can change until what your saying isn't true any more man. It's like saying that you are better off trading your ectos for zkeys and then selling them man. It might be true in a moment, but it won't always be true man.

 * Similar does not mean the same. (for example) Saying ectos are valuable (because they are rare, because they are used in elite armour) is similar to but not the same as listing an approximate price. The former is the correct way, the latter is the incorrect way. And fluctional is not a word, just like google is not a dictionary (merriamwebster.com). King Neoterikos 00:28, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Still don't see any reason why it should be on this page man. No distinguishing features 00:35, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Then read the article. Silk and dust go together like steel and iron ingots. It is in the notes section because it is valuable information. Someone may see it and realise that rather than selling the silk they have found, they would be better off salvaging it, particularly if that person was looking at this article to find out the best way to find dust. King Neoterikos 00:45, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Salvaging silk results in dust, but is not something you do with dust. It doesn't belong here.  &not; Wizårdbõÿ777  ( talk ) 00:53, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll remove it, I still think it has some relevance, but I suppose not enough. King Neoterikos 00:56, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
