Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[Vequi]

Wish I had more crafting options trying to move into heavenward levels, but ended up spending the time to farm up all the mats I needed and crafted 100 Archaeoskin Codex's for my Alch desynth skill ups, plus the one extra book I had sitting around.

Starting Skill: 90.24
Ended at: 116.07

With no boost I would have had a 7.50% success rate. 2 melds jumped that to a 17.50% success rate, then HQ Bacon Broth and HQ Tinker's Calm brought that up to 32.50% success rate starting off.

Only ended up succeeding 47/101 of my desynth attempts. Of course Alch had to be one to hate me :/
Succeeded over half of my attempts when I skilled up GSM and WVR in the same level range trying to get over the Heavenward hump.

My skillups ranged from 0.31 at the lowest towards the end, and 0.87 at the highest near the start.

In the end I walked away with:

Lightning/Water crystals,
15 Archaeornis Leather
8 Electrum Ingots
1 HQ Electrum Ingot
11 Hippogryph Leather
6 Enchanted Mythrite Ink
15 Battlecraft Demimateria II
4 Clear Demimateria

At least I started to break in to Heavenward levels, still a long ways to go though ._.

uhm, thats a lot for 32.5% success rate...

That was his starting rate. I'm sure it was going up every two successes by 1.5% and later by 2%, ending at (if he kept melding) 77%. I'm not going to do the math to see if the overall rate is above or below average, but what he was really saying was that ALC had more failures for him than the other two desynth classes he did this with.
