The crafting & gathering thread.

Which ones have you gotten a Mastercraft from? I've never gotten anything but Clear Demimateria I/II/III while skilling up CUL desynthesis, but I almost exclusively fish the bathing suit/cotton fish.

[Madeline]

It's Titanic Sawfish I believe.

It was actually in this thread. Safe to assume whatever gives Fieldcraft 3s will be equally painful to catch.

[Obsidian]

Ah, I've still never caught one of those, haha...

I laugh but inside I'm crying.

That is said to be a Hoax. There has been no other confirmation of any Mastercraft demimateria that comes from the Titanic Sawfish. Until someone else can confirm and show proof, its safe to say that there is no way of obtaining Masters/F3s from CUL desynth.

Idk if this is the fish in question, but are you suggesting that this screenshot may be shopped? http://www.bluegartr.com/threads/117...=1#post6176732

[Madeline]

Yeah that's the screenshot and that's the post I saw it in.

Struck me as real just because of how absolutely absurd it is.

I've been tainted by Square! That said I don't have anything to go on beyond that. I'm not about to go fishing those things. Half the problem as it is. Everyone has the same mindset as me!

New crafting gloves were added with the patch link.

Seems you end up giving up 3 CP to gain 3 control over melded i55 gear. They don't really seem like an upgrade as far as BiS, but good for people who haven't fully melded.

[Madeline]

I imagine you'll get those late in the Ixali reputation grind. They look like an upgraded version of the standard lv6 gloves.

Yeah, was excited until I saw their stats. Funny thing is that gloves are the current easiest piece to max meld, so they're not even really that great for new crafters, unless that control just happens to push them over a star threshold.

1035 seals for myth gear turn ins

1035 seals for myth gear turn ins

Regardless of gear slot? Even though they cost different amounts of seals to buy?

What's that make the allied seal to GC seal conversion rate then... 20 Allied seals to 1035 GC seals. That's 51.75 GC seals per allied seal. Just shy of 50 allied seals per philo mat. Mehhhhh, I'll probably still stick to turning in Militia Necks for seals.

Can you desynth any myth gear?

[Hiryo]

Can't desynth any

[Eldelphia]

Yeah I turned in 4 pieces of SCH gear cos I hate the myth look. All the same reward

[PROBOUND]

I was hoping they would re-introduce the HQ rewards for turning in items as they once had pre 2.2. I havnt tested it yet but i have a feeling they did not come through.

The HQ bonus must have been too OP. 633 seals is still good i guess. Just makes speedrunning a new FC to rank 6 that much harder. aprox 580 Militia Turn ins i think.

Tested this just last night while getting some ventures. No bonus for HQ, sadly. On the bright side, don't have to spend time adding quality, so at least there's that?

[Niiro]

I'm confused, what are you guys talking about?

You still get double seals for HQ items.

[Raldo]

You get double seals for HQ of the items they ask for, however if you're just turning in green items for seals via the 'give me anything pink/blue/green' menu (where you normally turn in your primal/dungeon gear for seals), HQ isn't taken into account. They'll accept crafted i55/i70 items, so people will sometimes just churn out a bunch of Militia Necks (Hippo Leather + Raptor Sinew) for easy seals & FC credits.

i55 crafted green stuff is worth 633 seals, HQ or not.

[Niiro]

Ah, gotcha.

Titanic Sawfish

[Kacey]

So I've scoured a few pages and this is the only rotation I found for aspected weapons. I was wondering if other people have come up with different rotations that have more quality touches in them. Though I've gotten really lucky with this variant it's seemed really flaky in getting the quality in there unless I get 0 fails/goodcellent on BB.
