Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[Nyalia]

In the GSM section, you recommend Hardsilver Magnifiers/Monocle for 138-148, but Hardsilver Needle from the same vendor seems to be just as good for about 5K less gil. That adds up over time.

Sorry, all hw sections need heavy updating. I actually have some calculations in the spreadsheet that tell you the best desynth at any level, taking into account the values of the resulting items. Unfortunately, I need to do several hours of data entry before it will be useful. Don't have time right now, 'cause holiday.

Is there a large gap in between big fish and level 51 fish or does culinarian need to be over level 51 to desynth new fish. At around 75 level for desynth and cant desynth new fish

That gap sucks. The earliest you can desynth hw fish is actually about 85 if you use Tinker's Bacon and are okay with a 7.5% success rate. I recommend grinding to 85 with Gigantclams, then switch to r120 fish with both hq tinker's calm and hq bacon broth. Succeed 20 times and you'll be around dSkill 100.

I spammed Rainbow Ribbons to level WVR from 90 to 120 with Tinker's up. I did indeed get .9, and sometimes even a full 1.0, per desynth at 90.

Thanks!
