Guide: How To Lock Desynth Level and Choose What Skill To Delevel

[Rath]

I have been experimenting all day with this "lock". I have been changing my classes alch>weaver>gsm> desynth alchemy. For 15 skill levels in alchemy now and I have not lost any points in weaver (67.23) or gsm (100) while leveling my alchemy from 61.13-77.34. I am pretty sure the "lock" just requires the job to be activated or referenced by the server in any way. Changing your class seems to do that.

Edit: I did lose .01 at some point in gsm. But, I am unsure if I forgot to change or I am having extremely good luck and changing class does nothing.

Edit 2: I tried to repeat my success and it did not work. I don't know if it locked inadvertently before or I did something else to lock it, but I logged back in today and was losing skill within 20 desynths. I am going to play around and see if there is something I did that could have locked it besides changing classes.
