    You have to have a certain minimum skill level to desynth an item. Gotta start desynthing low level stuff until you build it up.

    I thought they said the tomestone would be independent of the CT gear lockout too? Or did I just dream that up?

    Although I guess the tomestone might be and the oils/sands are not since it's not a 'gear-enhancing' piece

    After doing the Uldah/Blackbrush quests....

    I've been desynthing random accessories for the past hour or so.

    Have gotten 2 Clear Demi I for Copper Earrings and 1 Fieldcraft Demi I from Silver Chokers.

    It stands to reason that you're going to get Clear from all of them, Battle from Battle gear, Field from Fieldcraft gear - I know that's a pretty obvious statement to make, but that's what I'd imagine.

    I'd also say GSM is probably invaluable to have for Desynth, simply for the amount of accessories it can break down. After that maybe LTW.

    Anyway, no Demi II's yet, but there are already some up for sale on my server (for 500,000g lmao) so it's just a question of finding out which level items will give different tier demimateria.

    Gonna keep plugging away at this as I can see those shifting for silly prices in the coming days, with people who can't be bothered to desynth just buying them all up.

    Oh and for those that are DoL/DoH freaks like me, check Talan on Rev's Toll if you haven't already and check out which new 2star/demimateria you need for your 'Supra' mainhand tools.

    Fun.

    Yeah started gutting fish, silver sovereign nq's were saying can't do it @ first, now up to 30% success @ 65.81 skill.

    HQ does not affect success rate.

    I'm getting demi ii's off lvl 35ish fish.

    Killed a giant gremlin in South Shroud around 18/22. Can't give an accurate assessment regarding his strength, hit non-tanks for 900 and applied a debuff. Went down slowly with a tank and a healer, but fell relatively quickly when 8 people or so arrived.

    Dropped 20 notes, 80 myth and 20 soldiery.

    So an elite mob dropped something that you can trade in for 250 allies notes? Or am I misreading that?

    He dropped a book, which you trade 250 marks to get that book usually. 2 of those books get an oil, 3 get a sand.

    Sorry if I derped my post and made it sound bad!

    So I'm confused, the Elites you are all talking about, it's this Hunt thing? So the loot described (notes, myth, sold) can only happen once a week? Or you can farm this as much as you want all day?

    CT2:
    Scylla is the new Bone Dragon.
    1st 2 Bosses drop 20 myth, 3rd drops 30 myth and last drops 30 myth and 15 sold.
    Got WHM belt off Scylla (1st boss), BRD belt off 2nd boss, casting head off Amon (3rd boss) and DRG body of last boss.

    how easy/hard is CT2? the mechanics should not be too difficult considering it's already down...

    Yep, its the hunt. Can do as many as you want, we've done two B's and one A so far. The myth and soldiery is good too (30m 10s on B, 80m 20s on A)

    Lodestone is up again, yet another crown without parry.

    Damn, definitely, and a lot less mind numbing than spamming the same dungeon. Ah I just re-read the patch notes, now I get it, you only get the bounty once (I guess), but the myth soldiery are all the time. So what is the actual reward from the GC for the hunts?

    We've been getting bounty's from B and A ranks that aren't in the hunt board, you can just keep doing them.

    Rewards are new GC items, Myth items, Sands, Oils, Alexandrite and a few others.

    I am kind of surprised at the Oil / Sand prices. We were all predicting way higher in the other patch thread. You almost don't even really need to do SCOB to get to 110 in a fairly reasonable amount of time.

    To add, the book is a random drop. We've since done another A rank and no-one got one.

    Gotcha. Now it all depends how long it takes to take them down, what is the repop timer and basically, how many you can kill per hour by teleporting zone to zone.
