I honestly don't know what I should desynth to get from 200 to say, 250?

What method should I use??
have you tried desynthing the ilvl 200 weapons from the centurio seal vendor in ishgard? I know it might hurt to spend centurios on that but you really just need to get high enough to reliably desynth the ilvl 230 weapons for poetics. Consider trying a 230 now while using high quality bacon broth and tinker's calm. If the chance is acceptably high enough, that might just be your ticket. Also remember you can toss some cheap materia into anything that accepts materia for additional bonuses to desynth success chance.
