Quick Synthesis is not Quick.

Can we please increase the rate that Quick Synthesis produces results?

For something with "Quick" in the name, it sure as hell takes a long time to craft with it. I don't mind making all of these sub-craft items, but it takes up so much time.

It is much faster than crafting them by hand, even if you craft them by macro. In that sense, it is "quick" - even if it is not as quick as you (or I) may prefer.

That is not entirely true. If you are content with NM items, and are making lower level recipe where one synth action is enough for whole progress, it is actually quicker to start craft, click synth, start craft, click synth ... However that obviously won't have the chance for HQ which quick synthesis has. The benefit from quick synthesis comes from it not needing user input between the synths.

I actually found a quicker "Quick Synthesis"..........the MB.

Thanks for the chuckle.

On a more serious note, the strict Japanese translation of this game feature is "Easy Synthesis", not "Quick Synthesis". Thus, in translation the word was changed to give it a "better" description but unfortunately "Quick" is not "Fast" but it is "Easy".

I think the word they should have been going for is "Convenient synthesis" but that sounds convoluted. :o

Agreed it is not quick but convenient, I would love an item like the chefs hat from wow to really speed any craft that qualifies for "quick" synth. ^^

Honestly, at 60 we should just get a quicker passive ability, pre-60 its nice since you still get EXP and stuff, but it isn't that quick. But then again, 99 craft -> AFK. Is nice anyway you look at it

Am I the only one who thinks it varies with craft job too? My CUL seems marginally faster at making fishmeal than my CRP does at lumber, the CRP appears to wait longer between crafts. Could just be appearances though.

Where is the stopwatch when we need one? Good question though, never tried it out or rather, paid attention,
