Meatlic red-scaled Hide 04/22/2012 10:31 PM CDT
Has anyone looked into what kind of leathers cinder beast hides make?

Here's an app of a hide (it's FAR from a perfect skin):
You carefully remove a metallic-red scaled hide from the bundle.
> app hide careful
You are certain that the scaled hide has a quality of 7, placing it at 'very low quality' on the official Trader's Scale.
You are certain that the scaled hide has a durability of 60, placing it at 'moderate durability' on the official Trader's Scale.
You are certain that the scaled hide has a workability of 20, placing it at 'very difficult to work with' on the official Trader's Scale.
You are certain that the scaled hide has an electrical resistance of 15, placing it at 'an incredible conductor of electricity' on the official Trader's Scale.
You are certain that the scaled hide has a thermal resistance of 80, placing it at 'poor at transfering heat and cold' on the official Trader's Scale.
You are certain that the scaled hide has a physical resistance of 75, placing it at 'very good at repelling physical blows' on the official Trader's Scale.
The scaled hide is average in size.
The scaled hide is fairly hard.
You are certain that the scaled hide weighs about 6 stones.
You are certain that the scaled hide is worth exactly 548 lirums.

Now I don't know how that compares to firecats or gargoyles or storm bulls but I'd be interested in seeing what kind of leathers they make. Not only that, if it hasn't been tested I'd be willing to cover costs and purchase if someone decided to try and make some.

If it's anything like slings, it's "red-scaled" shadowbeasts are "blue-scaled" (if I remember correctly)

I meant the actual properties of the leathers.

Trying to find out if they'd be comparable to firecats..

Oh well then their properties are listed here http://elanthipedia.org/w/index.php/Crafting_Materials
Looks like they would come out less protective in general (harphysical 75 vs 85 for firecats)

They do have the highest thermal resistance.

Codiax -

Just a heads up, you need to change the link in your sig to point to the elanthipedia.org page.
