Desynthesis Endgame Guide

Also, I have not figured out how to get Thavanarian Silk.

I'll be very surprised if Thav Silk isn't from the highest maps, just like Dress Materials were from Peisteskins. I don't expect it to be from desynthing, but maybe they'll be nice and throw us stuff we can desynth to get it as well. Chances are that we currently cannot get it from desynthing, but in a later update, an f60*** fish will have it.


So, the new dungeon gear drops BC2s, not BC3s? Or do you mean the crafted stuff? I haven't made it through the story yet, but anyone know if the items dropped by the new Extreme Primals are desynthable? Or HM, if those drop weapons? I'm really hoping that the new primal stuff is not desynthable, so in a later patch they can give us more Primal demis. There are no new demis at all in the game's item list according to datamining sites, so if those items are desynthable now, chances are extremely high that they will not add those demis later.

I'm not that far in, well, anything yet. Despite this thread, I tend to just derp around in game and do stuff super slow xD How valuable are Holy Ramie Thread and Chimeric Felt? Are those craftable?

I don't understand why they would "block" FC3s/BC3s. FC3s at least are now pretty worthless. BC3s are tanking as well. Having so many more ways to get them while not adding new things that require them really hurts those markets. I mean, there are a few new i95 Bright Primal weapons, but that's about it for BC3s and those are pure glam.

18k, 59k. Probably craftable, but you need to unlock 56-60 item recipes tab first.

Hi Nya,

I can corroborate what Gil is saying, and to answer your question:

* On Weaver, desynthing Rainbow and Holy Rainbow *crafted* gear, you can randomly get Battlecraft 2 Demimateria (not 3). Pretty worthless.

It does feel strange, because you're progressing through the highest level items for Desynth and Crafting in 3.0 now, and yet, it's Tier II demimaterias?! Strange.

Err, yes, I'm well aware you get BC2s/FC2s from crafted gear. Level 50 crafted gear gives BC2s also, as does 50* gear. It's not until 50** that we started being able to make items we could desynth into 3s. It makes some logical sense that we won't get 3s again until we can make 60** and higher items. Weird, but follows a consistent pattern, I guess.

I was asking about dungeon gear, especially from the level 60 dungeons. Are you both saying that dungeon gear also gives BC2s/FC2s and not 3s? That would be inconsistent, in my opinion...

Hi Nya,

Ah oops. Well so far I've been Converting all my Dungeon Gear (in the hopes of getting a Tier V Materia . Didn't try Desynthing them, but I might try one or two pieces and update if I do.

Thanks.

They said in the patch notes Materia V could only be obtained for Mutamix until they patch in Alexander (Savage I think) in 4 weeks.

Nah, the patch notes mention it's only Gathering / Crafting Materia V that's on hold. From the Notes:

[3.0] Players can now convert gear into grade five materia.

* Grade five materia for crafting and gathering classes will not be available at the release of patch 3.0. They are scheduled to be added at a later date. However, it will be possible to receive grade five crafting or gathering materia via materia transmutation by speaking with Mutamix.

They are.
