    I've only found 1 dust.
    It was in a water sack in Stros-M'kai.

    It wasn't on Bleakrock. Nope. Nothing to see there folks. Try Stros M'kai. I hear it's nice and "dusty" there.

    Rule #2: True immersion is RL.
    Rule #3: RL lag is wonderful.
    Rule #4: People matter. Pixels do not.

    Difficulty scaling is desperately needed. 9 years. 6 paid expansions. 25 DLCs. 41 game changing updates including A Realm Reborn-tier overhaul of the game including a permanent CP160 gear cap and ridiculous power creep thereafter. I'm sick and tired of hearing about Cadwell Silver&Gold as a "you think you do but you don't"-tier deflection to any criticism regarding the lack of overland difficulty in the game.

    Found a Cipher in my inventory in my first week on NA. No idea where it came from. I want to sell it for 2m but haven't worked up the courage to wts in zone. Anyone interested can pm me in game or here. It will probs just end up gathering dust in the bank.

    @FriedEggSandwich offload that aetherial recipe now if you're going to sell...the recipe is sold by the homestead merchant for master crafting writ vouchers.

    Based on the writs on the pts, it'll still be spendy, but earning the vouchers will require approx two gold nirnhoned items. So the cost to buy it in update 13 is approx. $200k in items. So sell now before people figure that out!

    That thing is only 100% exp boost, and you need diminished dust too. I prefer the one I have learnt already to the Writ one.

    Thanks for the heads up. Might try offering it for 1mil instead.

    I found a dust in Bangkorai. Was really surprised, managed to sell it for 65K. Glad I sold it before the price plummeted too much. As for cipher, never ever once found it.
