Desynthesis Endgame Guide

Thanks. Do you know a fast way to level ARM desynthesis past 140, seem like i get bigger turn around on Fc3 than anything else. Trying to get close to 30 mil for a medium house in the new area seems like very hard to do.

Just to confirm, are the recommendations for Fieldcraft Demimateria I in the guide still pretty ideal? The Brass Rings of Crafting and so forth. Think I've reached the point in crafting where I need to start stocking up.

Nothing has changed at all for the tier 1's. HW stuff only gives 2's and 3's depending on level. The only possible change is if materials have become available from npcs. I use iron alembics on arm since iron plates and rivets are available from the housing npc. Not sure if that's always been the case.

So when you meld materia on an item for desynth what does the success % go to? I hate Archaeoskin Belts that just fail. Is there also a better materia level or just the lowest possible will work? I am LTW

You get a flat 5% boost to success per meld, regardless of the type/tier of materia. This can change an item from "cannot attempt" to the 5-25% range as well.

I still use brass rings of crafting for fieldcraft 1.

Dungeons or by 230 pieces with lore.

Got to Goldsmith 206 on iL180 PvP accessories. Hitting diminished returns.

Is there anything out there 190? 200? Or is it jump right into the 210 PvP accessories.

Looking at the MBs I see nothing between 180 and 250.

Edit: Also Balcksmith 139, what should I be blowing up here?

For your BSM question the guide already has the answer:
dSkill 130-148: Titanium Scythe (r139) [32% - 68%] (crafted, not bought, and preferably melded 1-2 times)
dSkill 148-170: Adamantite Pliers (r148) [50% - 73%] (bought from Junkmonger in Matoya's Cave for 15,966 gil) (melding is still a good idea)

As for 200+ there's several ways for both BSM and GSM:

- Drops from dungeons (mostly GSM)
- Drops from HW Primals (BSM)
- Lore Gear (GSM & BSM)
- Artifact Gear (Obtainable trough Centurion Seals)
- Raid Drops (Mostly GSM)
- Gatherer & Crafter gear obtained through Blue Scrips & Collectables

replica allagan gear for gsm is pretty cheap, or if you join a a1s light farm party you can get a lot of i210 accesories. After that dungeon gear or lore gear is probably easiest, unless you wanna blow money crafting.
