Crafting materials


Advice


Any good resources for crating with alternate materials? I found the guide for using various metals, but haven't found much else. For example, you can get a spider silk rope that weighs 60% less than a standard hempen rope, but cost 200x as much. Some guide on how to convert the costs for say, a tunic would be great. This specific example would be simple enough to hash out with the GM, but others not so much - the interesting part of crafting to me is using the rare materials found while adventuring. So yeah... Any good places to look for conversion info? Bonus points for Paizo-published material, but will consider third party sources if they seem balanced.


101 Special Materials and Power Components by Rite Publishing has some of what you are looking for (including, interestingly enough, a tunic made of spider silk).


This is definitely along the lines of what I was looking for. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the entries are for power components (which are cool, but not really my thing). The aranea silk seems to be the only alternative to basic cloth and so far (I'm about halfway through) it looks like all of the special woods are just for weapon enhancement, but some of the metals are interesting (especially intrigued by the anamnesis alloy). Thanks for the suggestion! Still looking, if anyone has another source :D
