Desynthesis. help!

Benefits for desynth really only exist at this time up to about level 110-130. That is high enough that you can get every type of Demimateria in the game. After that you're leveling it up in the hopes that they add something in the future.
As far as I know the only profitable uses of desynth in 3.0 has been for a short window of time when Luminous Fibers were going for 200k+, but at this point I wouldn't justify all the leveling for that alone.

CRP and ALC are by far the WORST desynths to level. CUL(fishing is easy) GSM, WVR,LTW,ARM,BSM all aren't too bad with dungeon drops feeding you levels. CRP/ALC you're pretty much relying on bows and book weapons, with a few canes and spears, and if you can't Need roll on them, you won't be seeing a whole lot of them. I personally crafted ~300 Dispelling Arrows to level my CRP from about 150-190. My next step will be either farming for BISex, RAVex, or Raijodo (centurio seals) weapons for another 10 levels. Please don't join me in my masochistic campaign.

Take Mnemosis' suggestion and pick up CUL/GSM and something else. But if you want them to be at all useful in 4.0 (assuming SE hasn't truly forsaken the system) you'll need them leveled at least to 200 to start desynthing 4.0 gear at a reasonable %

I actually found this thread shortly after. i'm finding it really useful. I've decided to level my WVR first, and then do GSM and maybe BSM/LTW
