Fish Desynth

Retainers won't bring back crafting stations anymore from quick ventures. One of the early 2.2x patches after 2.2 dropped nerfed them to not bring back such ridiculously over the top 3-star crafted items. They may still bring back things like carbuncle furniture and summoning bells apparently, but definitely not crafting stations.

Wait, desynthing fish gives shards and crystals?

As in how they worked in 1.xx?

That is truly shocking. I might actually come back now.

Way different mechanism than in 1.xx but yes, shards and crystals. Kind of hoping that the biggest fish will give clusters but I am no where close to desynthing them.

You pretty much only get Water shards, with some Earth and Wind shards from dune- and sky-fish, respectively. Great if you're an alchemsit, pretty meh otherwise.

It would have been cool if you could get all varieties of shards depending on the fish you desynthed, but sadly it isn't so.

I'm pretty sure that you can't get Clusters from desynthing. I've never gotten one ever from an Aetheryte Ring, and I've smashed a bunch of those.

I've only desynthed as far as Mahi mahi but I've gotten only shards & crystals so far no clusters.
The fish I broke down have so far given me water,earth and fire shards so I get the feeling depending what/where you fish you can pretty much get every type of shard though the most I've gotten is up to 3 from 1 fish.

I think the best thing to come out of the fish are the clear demimateria II as it sells to NPC for 1000 gil.

Culinarian is up to 68ish so I'll be fishing up some more mahis this week to level him up (its going at snail speed now ><) so I can finally get started on breaking down my 2 star fish collection

At what level can I begin to desynth Silver Sovereigns?
