is it possible that im doing something wrong or maybe just some days you cannot make a shiva ring +1. 4 days ago I made 5 almost in a row. yesterday I couldn't make any out of 15 tries, and today I didn't make any out of 6 tries.

Were you facing northwest during a full-moon with at least the level of the skill value's worth of Elemental Resistance (Fire) from your gear?

It absolutely does not. It was confirmed in an interview a while back, but is still a myth that persists to this date. :)

Technically speaking that AMA you are referring to only specified SYNTHESIS, it did not mention synergy.

Technically speaking:

"Synergy is an advanced form of synthesis" (http://www.playonline.com/pcd/topics/ff11us/detail/5027/detail.html)

But I'm not in any way being serious, just poking fun at our community and its superstitions.

Don't forget to pat your head and rub your belly at the same time too. Gives an extra 5% chance of HQ.

They are joking. Because there are no "secrets" to HQing with synergy. Just don't suck at it and don't expect a skyhigh rate compared to normal synthesis.

I don't agree that synergy is and advanced form of synthesis. If it was then Synthesis skill gain rate event should affect it.

By lore it is, in practice it's not. We should really just let the joke die now though. >.>
