Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[SendohJin]

hey all. i haven't really got into desynthesis before. i've been too busy at everything else, but finally ready to start this venture.

my biggest trades i use to craft are GSM/CRP/LTW/BSM/ARM.

is there any path i should take for my 3?

from my experience desynth is more tied into your battle class than your craft classes. if you don't tank or DRG you shouldn't desynth ARM, other jobs never get ARM gear to desynth without having to go out of their way to make/buy them. GSM and LTW are almost always good.

alright thank you i never thought of it that way. my main is Dragoon and will be Red Mage as well. so what would you recommend?

[SendohJin]

GSM, LTW and WVR are the easy ones for anyone that doesn't main Tank/DRG. you can always pick 2 easy ones and one hard one just because. if you Fish alot you can CUL.

I am trying to decide if I should go GSM or ARM for desynth. Which one would be more likely to give me best results item rarity wise? Just for a bit of extra gil from desynth?

[KumiNeko]

any way to level CUL past 250 seems like the fishies dont work...

Fishes from the lochs work. Rock saltfish is a very high catch and still gives some desynth at 297 rating.

For anyone looking for help with BSM desynth, I found that the Replica Alligan weapons are good to bridge the gap between HW and SB gear if the materials are cheap. Went from 200 to 215 pretty quick, and could continue that way if I wanted.

Getting from 313 to 320 is a pain, everything that can be desynthed is at 100% and the i300 dungeon gear is only giving like .1-.2 skill gains, I expect it to drop to less than .1 at 315.

[Dycloide]

That's a prtty nice increase for something 100%.

I remember back in HW or ARR, when you were above 95-97%, a successful desynth would give you already 0.01 ...

Last levels were extremely painful to reach.


Anyway you're at 100% on the currently highest desynthesable gear, so no need to go higher, anything above is bonus for next tier (when we will be able to desynth verity gear// laskmi/susano ex gear).

I myself at 305 on all my 3 classes, after struggling a bit in the 230 range, and some gils investment, it is really profitable now.

I am stuck at ilvl 155 on my ARM and can't seem to be able to find anything to desynth to get me higher. Any suggestions?
