Apologies - I posted bad info then. OP will be corrected. Again, I rely on other people's reports for stuff I don't do (or can't do), so please let me know if anything here seems wrong!

Also updated OP with Crowned Pies (r48, CUL desynthable). I dunno how I missed that these were desynthable, but they've always been. A good stepping stone when leveling desynth, but so far, my wife hasn't seen any demis from them, only silver and brass rings. The value of NQ pies (at least on my server) is the same as the value of the best item we've obtained from them so far (HQ silver rings), so this is not a useful way to make a profit at high levels. But, at low levels, it's a good way to cheaply level if you don't feel like fishing, since you make back a good portion of what you spend. Of course, fishing is still cheaper, but time is a cost too, and the pies can be quick-synthed and are stackable, which is rare for a desynthable item.

splintered chest (drop from sastasha hm--the drop itself not the finished "dead man's chest" furniture) is an r90 (armorer) that gives darksteel ingots, wolfram squares, darksteel rivets, and 1-2 FC 3's (maybe possibly 3 FC III's but I never saw it in over 100 desynths)

Presumably same mats from desynthing dead man's chest but you'd never do that since that synth takes 3 splintered chests...

I can confirm Artisan's Needle gives 3 MCD

Also did about 150 and have never received a FC2.

Has anyone gotten anything nice from the Artisan's/Forager's off-hand (secondary) tools?

That would be insane to do. 6 ehcatl sealants to make one of those.

Why isn't BSM doing these for desynth? Mythral Baslards at lvl 41. Or Mythral Pugiones lvl 45. Horned hatchet has so many pieces. It's hard to rinse and repeat.

Anyway, those are the items I did and felt like I broke pretty close to even.

guide was made before ninja. and there's a lot to it and a lot to update. Just use common sense more than the specific item recommendations.

Got a Rose Gold Ring from desynthing Better Crowned Pies. And then had the good fortune to desynth that into a Rose Gold Ingot!

Nice! Thanks for letting us know that. But... why would you desynth that ring? Those things go for over 100k on my server. They're BiS for DoL retainers and Fishers.
