    The RNG of Synthisis

    I am lvl20 cooking.

    I pick up a Lv20 cooking leve.

    It asks me to make some food that has magic stats.

    So I put on my magic crafting + control gear (it is not +1 gear, but it is the best NQ gear for Lv20), then I get the guild buff and eat magic crafting stat food, find it to be divine, and then make sure I have all of the right abilities slotted.

    Fulfillment - (increases chances of success for Synthisis)
    Harmonize - (Reduces risk)
    Masterpiece - (increases chances of success for Careful Synthisis)

    I am not a Lv10 Blacksmith or Armorer yet, so I do not have Makers Muse or Blinding Speed.

    I can only have 3 abilities slotted at Lv20 cooking.

    I choose to use my main hand tool and begin the leve.

    I fail the leve.

    I retry the leve and fail again.

    I retry the leve and barely complete it with very low score of assessment.

    Synthisis is extremely frustrating for me - hoping that RNG doesn't cause me to fail when I craft is too annoying.

    I am done crafting in FFXIV unless the RNG nature of Synthisis is removed.
