Oh well, I can afford 10 more breaks atleast.
4 of my 5 tier0 HQ's ever were without support. Support means nothing unless it breaks a tier.Originally Posted by Airshort7
Atleast next time I break when not using support, I can blame you! jk ; ;Originally Posted by Raineer

second try for the same guy :O
no skill up
third try, 20 minutes later, i NQ. poor dude ><; at least i didn't break his ABJ !
ouchies D:
I blew up my fourth c slacks the other day. I swear this synth is bugged. Anyone else notice a higher than it should be break rate on these things? I doubt there is any hidden sub craft skill since I've never gotten a skill up other than cloth back when I was under cap. Other ppl are posting macrame breaks, so maybe it isnt just me... (though it probably is lol).
I would sayyyyyy that you're just unlucky.Originally Posted by Meilyn
I synthed 26 consecutive macrame+slacks pair without fail, starting from about March 2006 until about a week ago.
I broke the 27th macrame (53rd synth) and remade it+slacks.
I broke the 33rd slacks (67th synth).
Since then I am up to #34 (69 synths) with only the above-mentioned 2 breaks. 34th pair on sale atm, waiting for it to sell before making #35.
(Before I started counting, I made at least 30 slacks for contract and broke 3-4 synths)
Why cursed slacks tho? Galetia had a price crash on our server, at 700k now and they are pretty reasonable for you to go to 97 (same cap as slacks) with blessed pants synth. HQ one...send to my d.box. I am currently 0/11 on it and still counting. Even if NQ, it's not as big loss as Cursed Slacks and sells much faster.Originally Posted by Meilyn
Dance Shoes <No thanks>
I've crit failed more slacks than any other expensive synth, and I never synthed one until I was 99+ and every one has been contracted lolOriginally Posted by Meilyn
slacks are 200-300k profit on our server, where blessed legs are about the same in loss. Never failed a slacks synth/macrame yet outta 4. never got a skill off them yet tho ;_; @96
Cursed cloth synths on Siren sell like shit on the AH, EVERYONE wants to "hope for HQ", because of course Mitts -1 cost like 1m all you have to do is tip the crafter
Not as bad as some i've seen on here but this was only my second Shura synth. Poor guy saved for a long time to get that log.

Highlighted a bit for you there Wop. Back when I was going 96 -> 97 Cursed Slacks were about 1 mil profit, Blessed Mitts were break even, and Blessed Trousers were ~150k profit. So ya, I was doing those instead of Dance Shoes. All three have pretty much dropped down to fluctuating around break even or slight loss now though. The point I was using is that I've never recieved any kind of subcraft skillup. And ya, the price crash of Galetia has been nuts, along with a number of things across the board. The Aristo's I made a month ago has dropped from 35 to 25 mil in that time. It makes me sad, I blame the increasing numbers of crafters at the top. Seems profit margins are just going to continue to fall until/unless gil buying becomes cheap again (which is probably how some of these crafter got this high in the first place).Originally Posted by wop
Sad to hear my luck might just be bad on this synth lol. Now that the profit has dried up I think its going contract only for a while. Thanks for the replies.
6th behemoth hide today. orz
Yesterday's Full moon, Lightning day, SW direction with Terra Staff does absolutely nothing

Try lightning staff? Also I have like 140 lightning element in my moghouse which of course gives off Moghancement: Desynthesis. I'm 3/6 NQ, 1/6 HQ, 2/6 break. Might just be a bit luckier than most, but I think it has a lot to do with stacking mog house with lightning shit.Originally Posted by wop
No, not fucking lightning staff, that has nothing to do with shit. SE did not design crafting with player levels god fucking dammit. Mog house is somewhat believeable, but thunder staff is level 51, all crafting gear is level 1 for a reason. Being on a job below 51 will never ever give you any crafting disadvantage, so please for the sake of my fucking sanity stop recommending this shitOriginally Posted by Bukkorosu
Hi there Hocho. Not saying the staves do help, but you're assumption based on MOST crafting gear beinglevel 1 shows nothing.Originally Posted by Zalius
Why do you have 140 lightning element when the requirement for overwhelming lightning energy is only 100 or 101 (one of those two I can't remember). Is there a proven study that I missed somewhere that states that having 140 lightning element has a better rate than 101 element?Originally Posted by Bukkorosu
