THANKS Jaiye, this is really nice to have and nice of you to take the time to do it!

I will add a request for the following and will later add any that I know of.

Nice link to keys we have available but what about CRAFTING those keys? It seems to be a mystery as to what all is needed by the Tinker to do this. You will get messages saying "you need more..." of this or of that but that doesn't tell all you'll need to do or get. I'm sure that I'll need to pay a lot of gold for some ingredients because they are champ drops or something like that but at least I can set a goal if I know what to do... or is that part of the mystery (as it seems to be an intentional mystery of crafting).

Another mystery (and I have looked, hopefully I just missed it somehow) is how to get the various tailoring materials for BOD. Frost Leather??? Will those polar bears drop Polar Leather? I should be so lucky eh.

Tinkered keys are found on the tinker tool under "Customs." Click on the scrollish-looking button to the right of an item to get a list of materials required to make it, as well as the skills required.

Nearly all keys require two Onyx Keyrings, purchased for 7000 tokens each at the donation hall. The rest of the ingredients are usually more mundane crafting materials, though many are high end. For instance, the mobile forge requires 150 platinum ingots, 20 platinum granite, and 50 petrified boards in addition to the keyrings.

Most of the keys also require 100 tinkering plus 100 in a couple of skills related to the key. However, the chance of success at that level is infinitesimal. It goes up to 40% at 120 tinkering. I hear getting the crafting ring from the donation hall can raise that over 50%, but as it costs 2.5 million tokens I don't ever expect to get it.

I'm curious too if anyone has a link or information as to which critters drop which type of leather. I'm not much of a hunter, so I've only been able to get regular and spined leather myself, and have never seen anyone selling it.

Heres a quick list for leather types.
Regular-cows, deer, bulls etc(outside Delucia is great)
Spined-Lizardmen(Upstairs in Despise)
Horned-Drakes and Wyverns(Destard)
Barbed-Dragons and Shadow Wyrms(Destard) White Wyrms(Ice)
Anything higher than Barbed can be skinned from leather elementals or by using a gargoyles knife.
Gargoyles Knives drop off regular gargoyles and higher luck helps the drop rate.
BE CAREFUL using a gargoyles knife they have a chance to spawn a leather elemental and
they hurt alot. Dragons and Drakes in Destard are easy custom leather farming spots.
Hope this helps!
