They are not.
They are not.
Has anything been found to effect the rate of tier I demis?
There seems to be a minimum ilvl for them to even show up. I did 30 amateur's needles (ilvl 12) since they're just 1x bat fang but no demis (clear or field), brass rings of crafting (ilvl 18) did tho.
Other than that I didn't notice ilvl effecting the rate of getting demis. Did electrum/mythril/brass rings of crafting and noticed no real difference (did 30-40 each of electrum/mythril, eventually settled on just doing brass since it's the cheapest).
Hardly the largest of sample sizes but have any trends been noticed?
I use Bone Rings to keep my GSM locked to 100 and they tend to give me clear demis pretty often. ilvl40-50 items to farm demis because they tend to yield 2.
Desynth can suck a dick. Am 100 dBSM and trying to get some FC3 for my supra rod. Make 8 summoning bells, break 5 get 2 wood back, make 2 more, end up with 5 breaks and 5 feathers.
Nothing from about 1-> 43ish
Lv 43-> 46 ish 1 battle/field
Lv 46-> 50 (no star) Possible 2 battle/field
1 star 1-2 field2/battle2 (stuff like body armors/weapons give multiple, where as accessories give 1)
2 star 1 field/battle 1-3 master (2 star artisan weapon gives up to 3, while glasses/hood gives 1)
3 star 1-2 field/battle ?master materia Haven't messed with this, but I don't think I've seen anyone mention master materia at this range, but you can get up to 2 battle from fully crafted items (like glasses/furniture...?) and field from "parts" i90?
need clarification on 3 star, I've not messed with it yet, been working on my i70 tools for all classes and only just recently finished.
Your low range is a bit off, fairly sure I've gotten battle/field 1s from level 26 gear as GSM while I was leveling.
I did a bunch of Wolf Fang Needles (ilvl40) and I'm almost certain I got 2 Field Is off of one of them so I think the threshold for getting 2 may be 40.
Also I'm not sure what you mean by "Nothing 1-43sh", do you mean you have no data? Cause you can certainly get demis from low level gear, I've been doing Brass crafting rings (ilvl 18) for Field Is.
Is the material from desynthing forager's hat a vanya silk? I'm guessing so since its weaver and all, but just curious.
I have not heard any info on fish producing Master, but again a lot have not been caught and or successfully synthed.
Guessing some fishers can identify the fish used to desynth

was thinking it was sort of common knowledge considering how low master materia prices are lately, and falling fast (maybe this will help it drop faster!)
Is that a motherfucking titanic sawfish?
Edit: Thanks gulk, was able to buy out MB of reasonably priced ones before alerting my fishing LS.
UGH of course that fish, fuck him.
I'd love to say that's reasonable. It took me a week to get one for the damn quest lol.
Got my sawfish for 90k each and MC here are at least 600k
Well if you got a weird economy like on whatever server SathFenrir is on, you'd still make good gil not having 100% chance. I'm presuming the fish are i70, so having a desynth of 80+ cookign would be a good profit gain, and an insane one if you got 100 desynth.
too bad the market on gilgamesh is flooded to death, think the server has more crafters then PVE/PVP'sers combined O_o
speaking of which, its about the same for gatherers... the marketboards flooding >.>
Making my GF level dCUL to 100 currently since all mine are full. She's at 65 currently for 0 gil invested (since I made her start leveling fishing too).
Should be able to desynth them within a week.
