I know with all of the house options in ESO gathering sufficient furnishing materials to make all the items that we use to furnish them is a real pain.

My suggestion...?

Make refining resources produce furnishing materials AS WELL as the materials we are currently getting. Problem solved, or at least rendered more tolerable.

I'd prefer that some of the insane quantities that most of these recipes require be reduced.
I can't be sure, but I think lots of the original furnishing recipes that didn't use these, had them added over time.

Agree. I don't mind the droprate, because when I'm actually determined i can acquire the furnishing mats pretty quick.

What I take issue with is the balancing of each type of mat across different types of furnishings. Mundane runes seem to be needed in way too many non-praxis recipes (patterns/blueprints/diagrams), and usually at a high cost. Bast and Regulus don't see as much crossover, but when they do the number required is often not as much as Mundanes when they cross over. Heartwood is a quick second. Aside from Mundanes and Heartwoods, the others I don't run out of near as quickly or often.

An assessment and re-balancing of required mats would do wonders.

I'd like to see a database of aggregated furnishing plans to see the average number of plans you'll find each material is needed, average cost in their primary type of plan, and average requirements for crossover mats.
