Desynthesis Endgame Guide

[ChameleonMS]

I was attempting get some FC1 with my GSM, to help a newer crafter with levelling by making a Dodore Belt. I have not done this since before 3.1 but I remembered it was about a stack Brass Ingots and Rag Wetstones to produce 10 FC1. Assuming consumption of all material returns too.

My memory has been re-inforced by great work of this thread.

GSM: Brass Ring of Crafting [r20] (Yield: 0.1) - Crafted: 275; Vendor: 416 (gil/demimateria: 2,750/4,160) (Credit: Mathild Greyashe of Faerie)

Unfortunately, after 141 desynths, I have 6 FC1 and 8 Clear.
Is the formula still pretty much 15% chance of demateria, then split in half between FC and Clear?
My results are closer to 10% dematermia and equal split between FC and Clear remains.
Just bad RNG or have the demateria rates changed?

Your sample size is still small, you are still subject to the whims of the RNG.

Fieldcraft Demimateria 1?

I craft Thousand Needles for those.

you need 1 Cactuar needle and 1 Basilisk whetstone, (cheap enough if you gather the eggs yourself, Miner Northern Thanalan)

I crafted a batch of 65? ish yesterday and returned 35 FC 1 Demi's \o/

Hello! May I make an item suggestion for BSM 80-90? It may even be good for 70-90 but I'm not sure.

Bloody Lance Head, Bloody Bardiche Head, Bloody Knife Blades

All three of these are very cheap (less than 1k each) on my server, and desynth into valuable items on my server. Actually, the Weapon Parts category on the MB in general may be a viable source for leveling up from 80-90...

*edit* By "valuable items," I mean: Darksteel Nugget, Cobalt Ingot, Fieldcraft Demimateria II

I hope this suggestion helps.

"Fieldcraft Demimateria III
Best: LTW (bridesmaid's sandals, best man's gaiters)
Good: GSM (rimless glasses), WVR (bridesmaid's tights, best man's slacks, moogle walls - value highly dependent on Moggle Mog XII Whisker price), ALC (grade 1 aetherial wheels)
Mid: CRP (straight stepping stumps), BSM (summoning bells)
Worst: ARM, CUL"

You might wanna change that, I get a lot of FC3 with ARM by desynthese the darksteel parts to craft the darksteel armor! On my Server they was 5k-10k and I got 30-50% FC3

Hey, bringing to light a couple relevant patch notes:

[3.0] Gear from the following trials and duties can now be sold, desynthesized, or submitted for expert delivery missions:
Esoterics Gear (Item Level 200) / Esoterics Gear (Item Level 210) / Alexander: Gordias / Alexander: Gordias (Savage) / The Limitless Blue (Extreme) / Thok ast Thok (Extreme) / The Minstrel's Ballad: Thordan's Reign

[2.0] The following items can now be desynthesized:
Iron clapper / Item Level 210 gear obtained from the Diadem.

[2.0] Maximum desynthesis skill has been raised.
Maximum desynthesis skill has increased from 180 to 220.
Overall maximum desynthesis skill has increased from 560 to 680.

I accidentily messed up my desynthesis skill levels, so I'll be able to test at 179 and 180 if I can't fix it by patch day. I have an almost-full inventory tab of these items to desynthesize, mostly Alexander: Gordias gear.

Anyone know what this means from the pre-lim patch notes?

[2.0][3.0] New de-synthesizable recipes have been added to currently existing master recipe books.

If a player has already used these master recipe books, the recipes will be automatically added to the crafting log upon the release of patch 3.2.

[Zorlinta]

Anyone know what this means from the pre-lim patch notes?

that means new recipes have been added to currently existing master recipe books, those new ones are also de-synthesizable.

Anything worthwhile from the Ravana / Bismarck / Thordan primal desynths?

[Nekotee]

My guess is...

Desynth from bahamut coil stuff will give item to craft glamour outfit (dyeable stuff)
