Where to reliably find Jute/Fabric?

Rapthorne

I get iron weapon/armour drops constantly, and have more iron ingots and leather scraps than I can shake a stick at, but I am in dire need of jute and I assume other fabrics as a level. Where can I reliably get Jute and other fabrics? They don't drop very often and plants seem very few and far-between.

I tried on a different character investing in the assistant that brings you things every day, but it only gives me 3 raw resource per day, so seems completely not worth it.

Sell the raw leather you get, you should be able to get 4k-5k for a stack of 200 raw leather. Do not refine it if you are low in crafting levels.

Try to log in at hours where most players are offline, late nights and early mornings.... that way you can farm the jute before everyone els does.

If you want to earn money quickly, collect flowers and sell them. The prices of the flowers vary, read about them before you sell yours. On PC EU a single columbine costs 350g in avarage price, at the same time as nirnroot costs 45g.

Jute nodes are everywhere in the starting zones, and also fairly easy to see compared to cotton or flax. Maybe google some images of them. Once you get used to what they look like you'll be seeing them from half way across the map. You might want to spend a skill point in the Keen Eye passive for clothing, this will illuminate clothing nodes from a certain distance away. Also once you level the Hireling up he will bring you stuff twice a day.

Man, I spend so much time changing alts, running to set station, running to banks, moving to the next set station, going back to the bank.. woops just realised I have no mats and no gold on my crafter, relog my alt, buy mats, go to bank, relog, craft, run to bank.. after all this crap I just don't have the time, or will to scout around looking for material. Just buy them from the guild stores. I'd rather spend more time playing the game instead of running across Tamriel picking flowers.

Ah, fair call. Well you'll save a lot of money crafting your own items, and as long as you keep doing quests the gold will stack up nicely. At level 25 I had over 35k gold, which is plenty to buy some mats from guild stores.
