Thread: Desynthsis: will this ever be fixed (devs)

Not doubt be raised before but has there been any statement relating to deleveling issue?
im currently 90.44 gsm 72.34 bsm 5 weaver, its extremely frustrating having to cycle between each class in order to level a desynth without deleveling another
it just makes no sense at all that we need to do this, desynth is the most expensive craft to cap yet this issue is still on going

If you weren't aware, if you successfully desynth for a class, that class will not delevel for the next 3 successful desynths, no matter what.

So, if you succeed a GSM desynth, then do 3 successful BSM desynths, you won't get any delevel from GSM. I guess ideally you would cap 1 desynth to 100, then while working on your second one, do 1 GSM, 3 BSM (successful ones, breaks don't matter), repeat. Leveling your third desynth skill would be really annoying, of course.

I think the more annoying thing is that you don't have enough possible points to get 100 desynth in 3 different skills. It's like, what, 100, 100, then 96-97 or something? Gee... thanks.

Anyway, I doubt they will ever "fix" this issue, since it's exactly how they designed it to work. And honestly, the delevel is like 0.01, and only happens sometimes. Not that it's not annoying, but it's not exactly game breaking.

We already get a finite amount of points in regards to leveling up Desynthesis and we now have the means to reset that level.
Given that the above is true, there is no real rhyme or reason as to why Desynthesis levels aren't locked like normal crafting.

Great thread. I was thinking about this recently as well. Here's the old quote from the Devs:

Hi Grekumah & Dev Team,

Just wondering if there's been any update on this Desynthesis Lock feature? Can we expect it soon?

I know there's a workaround, but this is just a nice feature to have from a general quality of life point of view. And it makes the whole Desynthesis system feel more user-friendly.

Thanks!

I agree. We could really use an update on this feature.

I have like 50 million NQ calibrated rose gold cogs to keep mine stable. Of course, if you've already gotten your master II...though they're not all that expensive to make. They're stackable, I assume the same for other DoH too.

any news devs really dont want to start leveling my 3rd desynth it will be a nightmare
