Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[Porkchop]

Hello,

Any ideas how to level BSM 180+ ?

I've been thinking i180 crafted primal weapons (should be affordable) and then i195 tools (a bit expensive for sure)

Or farm primals (ravana (i190), thordan (i205), sephirot (i220)) but gathering a poney farm for those is tedious these days ..

Would be nice to reach a dlvl 235-240 and start desynth i250 crafted weaps which are relatively cheap to make.

Centurio seals. for 180-200, do Onikiri (50 seals)
200 - 220 - Antiquated Hauteclaire

I'm still wondering what to do after I reach 220..

hey guys,
is bridesmaid's sandals still the best way to get FC3s or is that outdated info?

[Roth_Trailfinder]

Its still the best way I know of.

You might want to try desynth some of the glamour gear that drops out of potd. Some of the desynthable glamour is selling for under 10k on mb on my server. If your desynth is high enough I've made tens of millions off of fc3/bc3 and other assorted items. The secret is out....i couldn't hide it any longer.

I think this was said before many pages ago, but for levelling BSM desynthesis past 200, Replica Allagan weapons really have been the best way by far for me, though possibly expensive depending on server. The two materia slots are a big reason why. Make sure you don't accidentily get Replica High Allagan weapons. Those are based on a higher recipe level, and I don't think those would be viable for levelling BSM desynthesis until at least 230, not to mention their cost is completely prohibitive anyway.

Doing at least the weekly Centurio Clan Hunt is good too. 100 seals=Antiquated Hauteclaire for BSM desynthesis.

Materia slots ? Can you expand please ? I'm not an expert at desynth, do materia slots impact the desynth rate ?

Each materia melded gives a +5% success rate

[Teiren]

Right, and the grade and type of the materia does not matter at all! I often use Dexterity Materia III. Oddly enough, Grade III of a materia can often be cheaper than Grade I. Now that I think about it, because those replica weapons are crafted I could have also advanced melded materia to each of them...oops. Well, good thing they all succeeded.

What are the current caps for both individual & overall desynthesis? I've searched online but found conflicting information, probably because most people got bored after a while. Sadly.
