How to get Padded Cloth in Runescape Dragonwilds

If your armor feels a little too thin and you’re getting tired of dodging arrows like a haystack, you’ll need Padded Cloth in Runescape Dragonwilds.

It’s key for crafting some of the game’s best mid-to-high-tier armor, like Studded Leather and Dark Mage Robes. But unlike other materials, Padded Cloth doesn’t drop from enemies – it requires a bit of crafting magic and upgraded stations.

Don’t worry, though. We’ve got the steps to get you from fabric to toughened gear in no time. Well, it does take a bit, but we’ll make it quick.

How to craft Padded Cloth in Dragonwilds

To craft Padded Cloth, build and upgrade a Loom, create Wool Cloth and Rough Cloth, and combine both cloths in the upgraded Loom.

Let’s go over the process step by step:

Craft the Loom

First, build a Loom with the following resources:

• 22 Ash Planks: Obtained by chopping Ash trees and processing the logs with a Sawmill
• 4 Bronze Bars: Smelt in a furnace using Bronze ore
• 6 Wool Thread: Made from either Fleece or Soft Animal Fur

Unlock the Loom Harness

Then, upgrade the Loom with a Loom Harness, which requires:

• 18 Ash Planks: Obtained by chopping Ash trees
• 12 Oak Logs: Obtained by chopping Oak trees in the Fractured Peaks
• 4 Iron Bars: Smelt in a furnace using Iron ore
• 12 Wool Thread: Made from either Fleece or Soft Animal Fur
• 4 Ram Horns: Found by hunting Rams in the Stormtouched Highlands

If you don’t have the Loom Harness recipe yet, make sure you’ve smelt Iron Bars before.

Craft Wool Thread and Rough Cloth

To make Padded Cloth, you’ll need both Wool Thread and Rough Cloth. Here’s how you can craft them:

• Wool Thread is made from either Fleece (from sheep or rams in Fractured Plains and Stormtouched Highlands) or Soft Animal Fur (from wolves and chinchompas). Combine 2 Wool Thread in the Loom to make Wool Cloth.
• Rough Cloth is made from either Coarse Thread from Animal Fur (deer, cows, or kebbits in Temple Woods and Bramblemead Valley) or spun Flax (Blue flowers in Temple Woods and Bramblemead Valley). Combine 3 Coarse Thread in the Loom to make Rough Cloth.
