    Should I give up before venturing further? Should I switch over to a different craft? I have Smithing at 50. Is there a good recipe to bridge the gap? Any advice is appreciated. That 64 is burning a hole in my mind.
    I did a mix of platinum arrowheads and Mailbreaker's to 70. From there I made Ashura to 73, fusion bolt heads to 78 and phrygian ores to 80 and started cutting beads till 87.

    The only tip I can give (this applies to basically any craft) would be don't get worked up over gil loss for leveling. I did the same when I did goldsmithing again on my re-rolled character and I ended up stopping at 60 for a few months because of it. Just suck up the loss and dyna farm for a few days if you need funds to pull it off. It'll pay off in the long run.

    I will say though, if I could re-make the decision as to what craft I should of leveled, I'd probably choose smithing or leather. Seeking something other than disappointment when it comes to new GS synths, S-E.

    Spoiler: show
    Yeah I know I'm replying to a post from about 2 weeks ago, but I decided to respond anyhow in case someone else reads this page and was wondering the same.

    You have the engaged/attempt method down, and are correct.

    The comprehensive npc that tells you all recipes gets recipes added to it based on your current level. so for goldsmithing if your 104, the last recipe youll see on the list is Silver Cassandra, when you hit 105 then Ugol Haubert will appear at the bottom. If there are two recipes for level 110, lets use alchemy as an example, the "newer" recipes they have added are always at the bottom of the list. So since hexed bliaut is older than killer's kilij, killer's kilij is at the bottom.

    My guess is Sharur is 113 since the other delve weapons are turning out to be that level. We cannot verify since we don't have any goldsmithers that high visit the boards, we left it at a range for now.

    Was attempting to make a Razorfury for a LSmate last night and was unable to. I am assuming this is because it has an unlisted bonecraft sub on bg-wiki. My bone is 44 currently, I'll see if I can get the mats from him today to test it out but I am currently leveling bone, so no promises.

    It's probably the easiest/best accuracy if you are under lvl but if you are too close obviously it wont work. It has the benefit of being the only method based on current skill instead of base skill so you can play with it with gear and moglification and such. Comprehensive npc is a great way to check too since everything is listed in lvl order but you have to already be at the cap. The other npcs since they range kinda require checking them each lvl to narrow said range

    I can check the NPC later. I was able to attempt it today at 52 bone. Meaning it does have a bone sub and it is somewhere between 60-68 if I can add correctly.

    I wish I had caught this post earlier....could have advised you to check each level using the engage trick. You could have narrowed the bone sub down exactly.

    Having said that, I bet the sub is 60 since we haven't had a recipe sub confirmed over 60 since SE upped the cap to 110/70.

    I actually already knew about that. The problem was the mats are a friend of mine's and he wasn't on until later in the day.

    For what it's worth I had a skill up on bonecraft making a razorfury a few weeks ago. I was at 59 bone at the time, so it's at least 60 as we thought.

    I'm not entirely familiar with synergy. Is this how it works?

    Say I want to make something from synergy and it requires, say, 50 Leathercraft and 90 Clothcraft. Does one of the participants need both of those skills to level? Or can I have one guy with 90 Clothcraft (and like 0 Leathercraft) and the other guy with the 50 Leathercraft? And of course the Synergist can be 0 in all else too?

    one person can be both 90 and 50, one can be 90 and another can be 50, or one person with 90 cloth 50 leather and synergy can do it alone. as long as every one of the requirements are somehow fulfilled, that is all you need to do.

    It was down for like 4-5 days after the most recent ffxi update a month or so ago. Came back up without any rhyme or reason.

    My clear-as-mud point was it seems to be a re-occurring problem with no solution.

    I don't know how to use <strike> tags in this forum

    I see dead crafters.

    Is there any cursed gear worth making nowadays? my main crafts are: Bonecrafting (all subs, synergy maxed), Smithing, Alchemy, Woodworking and kinda of.. Clothcrafting (stuck at 85). Any suggestion? or is there any old and rare crafts some would like to buy? I like making these obscure items that no one care to craft, if only to put my name on the price history list...

    leather and cloth crafts..hmmm..I don't see myself having them at appropriate level anytime soon =/, you want them for the augment right?
    it's hard to search crafts based on their augments, to see what still viable to make.
