    I hate crafting.

    1/60 and counting on a tier 1 synth. Earth crystal synth, half synthed on watersday, half on windsday, first quarter moon. Also went 2/30 on a tier 2 synth.

    So who was it that was saying day doesn't matter?

    On an alchemy mule, the hardest part about getting to 100 was the high demand for Wyvern Wings...

    Mmm, I hear you.

    As unbelievable as it might sound, in all my time as a level 100 crafter, I've only HQ'd t1/0 once. I am just about 1/500. I've dropped more gil into trying to HQ than I can count.

    So yeah, crafting sucks.

    yeah i find leather pretty stingy with HQ on tier 1/0

    i synth a lot of stuff on 0% wind and fire, 100% light, and other various windsdays but so far only HQd wise braconi +1 and penance hat. Both tier 1, i'd say im about 2/100 on tier1... currently trying to HQ dusk legs, with guild gear and support its a tier 1 synth, 0/10 so far, only enuff gil to do 1 at a time, few days between sales...

    im convinced you can get HQ burnout. I went on a synthing frenzy for months and then all of a sudden had insanely shitty lucky on hqs. So i took a break for awhile, came back and got my luck back.
