Which classes to focus for Desynthesis?

[AttacKat]

ALC: lots of ... weapons
ARM: but no primal weapons.
BSM: lots of primal weapons
CRP: a few primal weapons
GSM: couple of primal weapons
LTW: only 1 primal weapon (mog fists)
WVR: no weapons

Since I have not gone down the path yet, why all this focus on weapons? IME any DoW/M gear will drop battlecraft, and DoH/L gear will drop fieldcraft.

The Goal of Desynthesis is essentially to obtain rare/expensive Primal Demimateria from Primal Weapons in order to craft upgraded glowy versions of those weapons (i95) which will also be expensive.

Long story short. Gil/Vanity.

I guess we are on different paths. I am eyeing all the iL75 tools. Most expensive doesn't always translate to most profitable.

Because all crafts other than cul are essentially the same in other respects, except for the distinction gsm and wvr have about the i70 DoH hats.

Nah, there are other goals, mostly around making the mats for the other new synths, but again, you can get that done with all crafts, so essentially it's all crafts are the same except the primal weapons that can be desynthed, the i70 craft hats, and how easy it is to farm dungeon drops, though that last one's not that big a deal, especially since GSM ends up ahead for that factor, but was already ahead due to more important factors.
