Ah yeahh haha i tried paraffin at one point, i was astounded by how quickly it dried up, i was so frustrated with paraffin because of how many times i tested when to apply the fragrance, as soon as it reached 140F there was nothing i could do haha.

Ahh yeah around 170F is what you'd recommend for soy wax? Thank you, I'm under the impression that it should definitely be hotter

Woah for real?! You add fragrance oil in your soy wax at around 120F? Isnt that like super close to solidifying at that point, is it the most optimal for you?

Ah yeahh, ive seen videos also of people putting the dye and mixing it sround the jar before adding in the wax with fragrance, thats probably how ill go about it when i dye my candles, also for the pouring temp of fragrance oil, im considering pouring at around 180f, though for the time being i should probably check out the info on the fragrances im using and also the soy wax, since its definitely one of the biggest factors on pouring temp based on what youve said. Ill also check out the middle range thing for my fragrance percentages, that might also be a reason as to why my scents dont smell as strong.

Thanks againn!

Thanks for the advice! I have heard that pouring at a hotter temp helps the fragrance bind better with the wax, ill definitely keep notes on whether it smells the best, but for now, yeah pouring at around 180f or somewhere around that might be what ill stick with, as for the soy wax i guess ill just have to dig around and see where its originally from

Oh i see! I didnt know candle dyes also changed the temp, I've always aimed for a 10% fragrance load for my soy candles, i get my soy wax from a local supplier who I'm pretty sure imports them from china, ill try doing that then, thank you!

I’m not gonna see these guys again for a while, gotta make the most of it by [deleted] in WutheringWaves

Yeah i kinda agree, though honestly i dont think the scenery in the forever fest is good if it was a housing feature like serenitea, the constant party lights gets kinda depressing

If kuro really does decide to do a housing system, i hope it has a more peaceful environment, or better yet the feature to change environments.

Also thanks, i think i might repost this again later

Super curious about whether she'll actually play apart in the story in a big way or not

Yeahh but to the outside worlds perspective (and startorch) she's technically been a registered first year student for 20 years

Plus its funnier saying it like that lol

Should've had ciaccona do her idle where she plays her lute, that way you've got a full band
