Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[Dynas]

For 200-220, do hunts. Buy 3.0 AF gear from the vendor at the Forgotten Knight in Ishgard. With the rate that hunts are being done with 3 instances for each zone right now, this method is really really fast. You will also get poetics to buy 230 gear from Idyllshire with while doing this.

So apparently at one point they were going to call Dawn Serge "Steppe Serge"



cue "literally unplayable" meme

also even without coming from desynth its own description refers to itself as "undyed steppe serge"

hey all. i haven't really got into desynthesis before. i've been too busy at everything else, but finally ready to start this venture.

my biggest trades i use to craft are GSM/CRP/LTW/BSM/ARM.

is there any path i should take for my 3?

from my experience desynth is more tied into your battle class than your craft classes. if you don't tank or DRG you shouldn't desynth ARM, other jobs never get ARM gear to desynth without having to go out of their way to make/buy them. GSM and LTW are almost always good.

alright thank you i never thought of it that way. my main is Dragoon and will be Red Mage as well. so what would you recommend?

[SendohJin]

GSM, LTW and WVR are the easy ones for anyone that doesn't main Tank/DRG. you can always pick 2 easy ones and one hard one just because. if you Fish alot you can CUL.

[KumiNeko]

any way to level CUL past 250 seems like the fishies dont work...

[aldoxzx]

Fishes from the lochs work. Rock saltfish is a very high catch and still gives some desynth at 297 rating.

For anyone looking for help with BSM desynth, I found that the Replica Alligan weapons are good to bridge the gap between HW and SB gear if the materials are cheap. Went from 200 to 215 pretty quick, and could continue that way if I wanted.

[ElaTris]

Getting from 313 to 320 is a pain, everything that can be desynthed is at 100% and the i300 dungeon gear is only giving like .1-.2 skill gains, I expect it to drop to less than .1 at 315.
