no. You have to tan the untanned rot (or at least that's what got me a progress bar. I'll try water on my next batch for science.) in tanning fluid like it was leather.

So, for me? My best bark Q is around 37 right now. My best rot Q can be upwards of 150. If I spiral it for a few cycles, I can produce tanning fluid with a much higher quality.

I haven't confirmed any of this, and the wiki had nothing when I discovered this item (after my vinegar discovery), so I'm learning along with everyone else here, but my hypothesis is that it's a more expensive way to produce high quality leather.

I'm gonna give it a go and if I like it, I've got a stack of 150q+ hides that are gonna soak in this stuff for my curiass.

even though I can produce Q100 tanning fluid with my current trees/water, I could probably produce exquisite rot around 200-250 depending what animal parts I put in.

So it's mostly for making nice cutthroat cuirasses and the like. Endgame stuff.

Just as a point--learning to work around the search functionality here will get you some surprising results. I only used "exquisite" since it is not used very often outside of literature or highfalutin discussions, and got this: https://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/vi ... te#p671479

Very rarely is something not here and not on the wiki, though often for odd items they don't get stuck on the wiki right away (or even months).
