No, to answer your question, 2304 is not a reasonable sample size for crafting, not even close, no no no no.
Do you realize that's probably the approximate number of synths that occur in whitegate + zahbi + home nation in one game day on any given server at any given time?
No, that's not an accurate sample size, no it doesn't mean anything, friend is currently compiling the results of graphed / charted data on every synth for the past 5 months between 100 Bone and 100 Leather (including going 10/11 amemet +1) His results are amazing, he interprets them like a fucking moron (22-25% moon is HQ time!) but that doesn't change that over about 15,000 synths total his HQ range is even with a very low Sdev across the board.
He's going to continue his charting of it all and when I can maybe convince him that waning 22% watersday is NOT HQ+50% and to stop being a tard, he can post his results as they may finally shut everyone the hell up.
And to those of you asking why we get offended? Because every other god damn day "Onepostchump#8436643 -> Hi I just hit 72 goldsmithing, I heard its expensive, what direction do I face to make phat lootz BG"
When the excess spill over from the 'tard plant stops coming to the crafting forums I'll chill, as will skeet and the others I'm sure but ffs if you want a pat on the back for holding onto rare materials and getting inventory-5 or whatever for 2 days here it is *pat* Now go the fuck away.
That being said ->

Posting this ensures 100% that every LCer on Ifrit who reads this will be in my market by the end of the day, once and for all giving me a reason to not buy ridiculously jacked up wivre hides anymore. Done with this synth for a while, enjoy.
