    Adv. Synth Support

    Ok currently I'm 92.6 CC and Im planning on making a few 95 synths. All the synths now are getting pretty expensive and dont really want to break them but at the same time I want my damn Skill ups. Can you use synth support and still get skillups or will it just push me over the edge and have no chance of a skillup?

    Answer: you can still get skill ups.

    In all seriousness without trying to sound like a jerk, how did you get 92.6 CC without knowing this?

    Everybody should put "Sky O" in their sigs because it's the cool thing to do.

    I always stopped using support or synthing on day of crystal when i was 2 lvl's from cap. There's no way i can tell whether or not this helped or hindered anything at all.

    I dunno about you, but Im personally interested in what the level of every job you have is, no matter how low. Perhaps up to date TNLs if you're feeling nice.

    Your chance to skill up at tier 0 with support or GP items is the exact same as your chance to skill up while being 1-5 real levels under cap without items. People say otherwise, but recording 3 crafts worth of skill up results from 60 to 85/90/100 tells me otherwise. Oh, and about 10 levels of clothcraft also, where I synthed over cap the entire time and kept the exact same skill up average.

    Short answer, synth over cap if the HQ won't be NPCd.

    Synth over the cap even if it will, lol. Personally, I always synth AT the cap. Just my superstition though.

    Well personally, I'm lazy, so I don't get support unless it's worth something..
