Ethereal Cobwebs

[Boss]

How do I get more of these? I'm getting an excessive amount of unidentified items but not much cobwebs. The wyrdspawn themselves seem to mostly give me items.

Kill outlaws at night, there's a wolf icon under your mana bar when humans outside turn into "zombies" and can drop cobwebs. Enemies respawn after some time.
Most of unidentified items are crafting reagents and consumables, so you don't miss much.

[Boss]

Sure, but you also get unidentified items from them. So I end up with a ridiculous sum of 1 gold, 1 weight garbage it seems. Is there a way to farm more of them? Buy them?

There is a bug that can pretty much prevent you from looting any of these cobwebs.

My first playthrough was essentially bricked, cause after the first time i collected 25 cobwebs and used them, after that no matter what i did, i could not get anymore of it, even if i was attacked at night while resting etc.

Started another playgthrough, and now hen i kill Zombified humans or wyrd creatures i get like between 5 and 25 cobwebs per body.

But as stated the unidentified items are just reagents and consumables..., maybe future update or at release there will be more interesting items to identify.

Cobwebs use is really usefull for fast travel aside of that

There is a rare chance to get other items, like relics and permanent effect consumables, I think I got one that was +magic armour. I haven't got in the new areas yet tho to see if the drops differ.

Also you can fast travel for free from any fast travel point without cobwebs and there is enough of those around to not make much difference.

I hope they will fix it. Looks like I got the same bug, it would be too annoying to start a new game now

The ratio of Unids to cobwebs is way off. With the amount i was gathering I thought "okay ill put 25 cobwebs in the fire, then I can identify all this stuff" but no its 10 more cobwebs per identification? I will have to sell or not pickup like 75% of unidentified items

Before you go the identify route, save game prior then identify items. Take note of which ones are worthwhile, relics or whatnot. Reload game, re-identify items you wanted to keep and throw the rest away without identifying. I'm currently at lvl 67 with about 11-1200 cobwebs saved. There are also bandit camp areas that re-spawn NPC's 24 hour game period. At night, kill them and you can get more cobwebs.

How do I even use these cobwebs

Everytime you loot items with a '?' from whatever you kill. You need to setup camp, press cobwebs and a further menu will expand, including 'identify'. Cobwebs are used to identify items with the ? symbol.

yeah i am geting way to much unidentifiable item compare to cobwebs, perhaps we can get an npc that or station that identifies items for cheaper.

I think there is something I'm missing, while at a bonfire I cannot click the Ethereal Cobweb neither in bonfire menu or in bag. Am I doing something wrong, or is that a bug?

[warmblood1]

Start bonfire using menu. On the left hand side after fire is started there are a number of options displayed. Click on the Cobweb and a sub-menu will drop. This will allow you to identify ? stuff.

I go into the Cemetery Crypt and come out at night the flying skulls drop cobwebs.

there are multiple locations where their are large web deposits to collect, one near the good druids place, another near the bear shrine up north etc, you get 150+ from these alone each time, and they respawn
