The RNG of Synthisis

[Crica]

Are you waiting on flashing/red orbs? Are you synthing only on white or yellow? Are you using mostly standard synth for progression? Also, magic stats =/= m. craft. Just stack all the crafting stats you can get.

If I hit wait after I hit an ability, that would use an ability turn (IE: the ability only has 3-4 turns and WAIT would use up one turn)

Yes, the Magic Crafting stat is better for crafting items that have magic stats on them and the crafting stat is better for crafting items that have physical stats on them - confirmed by Yoshi-P in a past Letter from the Producer.

I use standard/careful along with my abilities.

I use WAIT for RED/GOLD/FLASHING if I am not using an ability at that time, but since WAIT is based on RNG as well, the orb can STILL be RED/GOLD/FLASHING anyway after using WAIT (no point in using wait more then three times in a row since I will loose more durability that way then I would have if I just used Standard instead and failed it...)

If I do not use Careful at all I will get very low XP from crafting because quality would be very low (how much quality an item finishes with determines how much XP you get per synth post patch 1.21)
