If you're going to be trying to do an incredibly difficult synth at a level where skill gains drop off so badly, may I suggest that you do a -little- more research on "what to do with 50 stacks of coeurl leather" if they're REALLY burning that hole in your inventory?

Coeurl Cesti are cap 72 and vendor for a respectable 2K or so each. Enjoy. And just wait till you hit the 90ish range and start treating a 0.1 skillup like you won the lottery...
