To be fair...
It isn't too hard as blacksmith in terms of getting the leathers and weaving mats from other skills...
The true challenge is the sheer amount of needed objects to create.
Another hindering ability that is also positive is that almost all the materials needed to rank up the skills are found in their respective areas (such as mines for Hewyurn and Suilen for Magic Ecology)...
... the drawback? Only people who go into that area will be able to sell you the materials. That means that someone who is randomly running a dungeon who finds a monster drops finest/fine leather then chooses to sell it to you will be non existent.
Only way for you to get the materials fast aside from gathering yourself, is to hire friends and people or make deals with the people who are ranking the respective gathering skills to relinquish the materials to you.

Despite the importance of some life skills not many people rank them.
Also can a KR Tester post a video about Rare Mineralogy? I've already seen KoR's [S]nooby[/S] encounter with the rabbits and whatnot for Shyllien Ecology. And is it true that Zinc,Tin,Nickel can be gathered via Rare Mineralogy and if it is how common/rare is it? Is it faster than Metal Conversion?

Aren't the gathering areas like the Hillwen Mines/Shyllien Ecological Preserve... like... not instanced like SMs/Dungeons?
Wouldn't that mean a lot of competition for the gathering spots?
Like... competition = or > (Carpentry areas during Double Rainbow + [demand from engineers and magi-crafters])^(Super Hype)

Not like everyone gonna rank it, maybe crowd for a few day then the whole thing die down.

The alchemy only ores (and unknown ore fragments) are the trash prizes gotten from gathering ore, everyone wants Hillwen not those ore, and those ore have a much higher chance of dropping. Same applies to all herb type in Ecology, where everyone wants more Shyllien than herbs.
