The Sacred clay needle is obtained from the Morphic tool (costing 20 Stealing Creation points). It can be bought at Stealing Creation along with other clay items. This tool gives an x2 experience bonus towards crafting with a needle. This item is used to craft Leather, Yak-hide, Snakeskin or Dragon leather into Leather armour, Snakeskin armour or Dragonhide armour. As with every other "Sacred Clay" tool, the multiplier towards experience is 2x. Therefore, you will earn twice the experience you would had you used a normal needle.
This is used most commonly with Dragonhide so players can earn 2x exp for the same cost and effectively cut the cost in half.
Degrading
The Sacred clay needle starts with 100% charge, which decreases as experience for using it is given. At 0% charge, it disappears. It can be reverted back to a morphic tool without losing any charge and then changed into any morphic item without losing any charge.
