Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[gentlemisfit]

I actually enjoyed lvling desynth. It was rewarding going from a low percentage of success and watch it go to a higher percentage once one desynth succeeded.

Q43:
I feel like the amount of time/effort required to level desynthesis and the returns don't match. Do you have plans to make major changes to the desynth system?

A43:
Will be making large changes to Disciples of the Hand and Land-related systems in 5.1. Desynthesis rates will be changed to be 100% guaranteed, no need to level up skills. Desynthesis will be something used when you have a surplus of something. That’s the plan we have in mind. I’ll provide more details on this when we’ve solidified the details.

Uh...not sure I like that. Do you still pick 3 skills? Or does everyone get to desynth everything, thus crashing all its value?

They gave no further information, but «crashing all its value» is hardly a good reason not to rebalance a mechanic.

The hell are you talking about? If there's a general list of reasons not to change a thing, "making it worthless" would be right up there at the top of it. Not just for this but completely in general.

I would like them to make leveling more easy and lift the 3 job restriction.
Making it all free for all seems a bit exaggerated.

Its cheaper and easier than actually making it rewarding again.

Mind you I would prefer they made it rewarding again.
