Desynthesis Tiers?

[Spekkio]

this may be a stupid question, but does desynthesis follow the normal crafting tier system? i've noticed a lot of HQ desynths just a hair over the cap, enough for me to think it's more than coincidence, but i'm curious what those with more experience and actual numbers have to say other than, it sucks. sentiment from searching SEEMS to indicate that, no, they do not apply which links up with my limited experience, but hunches are not science. does anyone know of a study showing if there's a significant or any difference at all between being at the cap for a desynth or a few dozen levels over?

As far as I can tell, desynth is 100% effective at cap and does not change thereafter. I desynth errant slops / rainbow capes at the same long-term rate as I do goblin armors.

Over about 500 synths that I tracked at one point, long-term stats were pretty damn close to 33% success 33% break+loss 33% break, leading to an overall 50% successful desynth rate per item purchased using 1.5 crystals per.

The only teirs I'm aware of are in the negative direction, where the chance of break+loss seems to increase drastically below -3, but that's on smaller sample sizes so it could just be a steady decrease in success chance plus placebo effect.
