What i saw were recipies in the "awarded" tab of the synthetise interface. Also i noticed that text from completing leves was also recipies. I just thought that's where you're supposed to get them. Instead of some YG database. However it seems like they don't add up over a period of time and last cycle's stuff is gone now.

I'm doing repairs now but i have yet to craft something because of this base recipie thing. I'll just have to write down everything i need because my monitor sucks and resolutions don't go high enough to play windowed. That or i'll just drop crafting. They need to fix alt tab and that directX bug.

So far FF14 has been challenging and fun and i'm looking forward to learning new things.
