Desynth 5.1?

The combined total level limit for desynthesis has been removed.As a result of this change, desynthesis levels can no longer go down, and it is possible to level desynthesis to maximum for all crafting classes.

So this means all desynth can be max level? If I am no where near the current cap right now. Can I start desynthing low level items this weekend? Raise a few levels in other stuff before the patch. I have a combined lower then 900 right now.

Looks that way. It says the total cap is going away and you can level it on all crafters come patch day. It looks like they are encouraging it now.

Never understood the reasoning behind limiting the amount of classes you could level up Desynthesis with. This is a great update.

I regret all the desynths I’ve reset before =(

Then let the MB apocalypse on worthless gear start. I am looking at you below lvl 70 earrings.

Why level on all of them anyway? If you need to desynth stuff, couldn't just use one craft to desynth everything? Or can you desynth only what you can repair?

Hopefully it'll succeed at removing a considerable amount of items from the markets and as such make it much more profitable to sell them.

It's similar to repairing. Each item can only be desynthed with its corresponding crafting class.

I kept my desynth mostly up to level, with 3 desynth levels at level 430+ but I only got those within the past year and the expansions bumps was a struggle for all 3 of those, not able to find cheap or quick gear to get past the expansion bumps.

it was there to build community and drive the market. when the Relic needed desynth items, no one player could get them all. they had to ask their friends/FC or buy from the market board.

that was the same idea behind Specialist crafts too. but players don't like being forced to deal with each other so it's all going away.

That change is a couple years overdue.

It hasnt had a measurable impact on anything since being a relic bottleneck.

depends how the levelling works, if can you actually get exp from breaking dungeon drops which are 400 item levels above you current level, if so there is no reason to buy anything unless they are 1 gil.

I'm honestly hoping there's still some sort of progression to the whole system, perhaps making it so you can't desynth anything you'd originally have had a 0% success rate for.

It's going to be if you're level 100 and desynth level 120 stuff you'll just get whatever. But if you desynth level 90 stuff you'll get rare items, so there's still cause to grind it out.
