Dreugh waxes are bought and sold for thousands of gold in the market and people put them all over their armor. This got me wondering... What's dreugh wax made of? And which body part does it come from?

✭✭✭✭✭I think it comes from Dreugh hide, theoretically. Perhaps Dreugh hide, when stripped off, has a waxy layer under the shell/exoskeleton or whatever Dreughs have.Grand Master Crafter, Beta baby who grew with the game. PC/NA. @Sheezabeast if you have crafting needs!4 -

On a more serious note... just look at some real world equivalents for animal-derived wax and use your imagination...

How naive some players are. Dreaugh wax is made from the entire dreaugh.... ground up emulsified and packaged... 1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Better question is, why can't we get it in bulk from the actual dreugh? Why only scraped off plant fibers & animal hides?(answer: it's just a game. )2 -

@Davor
There are some things worth selling to NPC Vendors, like
1. Completed Foods, Drinks and Potions/Poisons you made to level a Craft. Or, ones you made to use up extra ingredients (which can be a good money maker).
2. Trash weapons and armor you don't need/want to decon or research are good to sell to NPCs Vendors.
3. Tier 6 Green Recipes are best Vendored too if you don't need them.
4. Trophies for Fishing and Monsters should be Vendored
Everything else should be sold through a guild store. Note you don't need to use a Guild that has a Kiosk, but it can help with sales if you do.Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.
