Synergy Findings/Discussion

Ahh. As you were then.

How much gil have you spent getting to 38 hehe.
cost me around 50k making my aern lance with all the fail attempts.

and this is what would result, seems low, maybe my skill lvl, which is 6 atm?

Have you tried to etch another slot? Wondering how many they hold.

[blowfin]

Has anyone successfully made the Alchemy hands. I capped on them but still for the life of can't get the balance right. I've even had someone operating the Safety Valve to give me that bit of extra room but still can't get the mix right. The problem with getting the 25 amount for lightning and light is you can go over it very easily.

yeah look at the next posts after that one, i've done up to 3 slots.

So I just spent the last 4 hrs farming crystals and skilling up my cooking to 8 and became a recruit and now the stupid synergy furnace says "that recipe is impossible at your cooking skill level" -_- this: is very frustrating. Isn't the recipe a recruit one?

I had the same issue, you need to hit the high end of the Recruit-test, which would be 10.

[Suljin]

well at least I know now, but seeing as my cooking is 8 and cc is 60 and thats really all I have lvld, I basically wont be able to synth pretty much anything but juice till like 15? this is kinda lame

So, the only available evolith slots on the shikoku togi are 2 vs family and 1 magic? If so... meh at these armor sets.

Oh badass, missed that. So have you etched the third yet? I'm just curious if there is a 4th possible. It's cool to see that they get a diamond. Gonna try to get the 3rd etched on a body tomorrow if I can get help. I'm really hoping the armor gets a diamond, but it's looking pretty slim.

I had the same problem, it wouldn't let me synergise my juices until i was level 10 cooking, even though I ranked up at 8. My current craft levels are Bonecraft 50, Smithing 42, Woodworking 94, Cooking 10 Leathercraft 10 and everything else is 0. Looks like I'm pretty boned on synergy until i level me some more crafts. :/

Also, what level synergy would make it the easiest to make the smock? I've tired it at least 10 times and I keep failing it. :/ Admittedly I most likely just suck, but my skill is 5.~5 atm just wondering if a higher skill would make it easier.

I wouldn't suggest making things way above your level. It will cost you alot more gil in the long run. Each time the furnace explodes you lose a random amount of fuels, that can be like 500 gil gone per boom. And stuff way higher than you will go boom pretty damn often. But if you're rich go for it.

Wait what? All I notice during explosions is HP dmg, status effects, and element power of that synth drops below what you fed it up to. I didn't notice my *stock* of fewell go down ever, unless I hit the feed command (IE: I was able to feed 99 times in a row then refill). What does it matter if element goes down from explosions if you don't intend to finish the synth?

Or am I misunderstanding? Shouldn't cost any extra gil from explosions (unless you are trying to success the synergy, and are forced to feed 1 or 2 more fewell into that element).

[Nishida]

Man..this is annoying..how come Engetsuto can be etched, but like next to nothing else can aside from the new gear?

because SE sucks

Haven't tried 3rd etch, it's kinda hard to solo it and get good quality. You need high quality to get max power etches, can't just barely make it from what I can tell. From what I read on the main info site, there's a max of 3 etch anyhow.

I managed to make this

http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l2...f1/staffhq.jpg

Once I hit lvl 50. I think you HQ if you have high synthpot hps when you finish. For the first etch 8/8 I was 75% hps. For 2nd etch 8/8, finished with around 25% hps remaining. Is no way I can solo HQ the final etch so not gonna do that yet.

Compare to my spear when I was lower lvl. Got 8/8 hq first etch, but 2nd etch I suck ass and only got 4/8.

I would get your fewell supply lowers when it blew up on me before. Maybe they ninja patched it? I do notice it says lose elemental power as well now, but before definately you lost from your supply. Cause I go merit and get 50 million wind crystals to fuel my pot, and spam only wind and nothing else, yet why am i missing tons of other elements? That's when I stopped doing the high lvl stuff. But they might have ninja patch it, I dunno.

[Bling]

It does blow up random other elements of your stock. I've seen it lose like 3 or 4 elements at a time. I haven't payed attention to how much it depletes, but I can be using only earth and when I fill back up some of the others will be around 80 or so.

Oh bummer only 3, I missed that. I hope all the "good" evo isn't diamond then :/

[urat]

Id suggest you get synergysts with fishermen's smock and I think leathercrafter smock for the special abilities that super boost HQ rate.

Also, so far I'm fairly certain 45~50% impurity ratio is the point of zomgesplosion for these, so you want to keep below that, and roughly 150~200 pzs for pressure.

[Khiinroye]

Light and Dark overloads cost fewell of the 4 elements of that type, i.e. light = light fire lightning wind, dark = dark ice water earth. VERY rarely do you lose fewell when another type explodes, but its possible.

Also, no grats to Mac on staff cause you lotted your 2nd over my first. /hate

[macross]

Bah so many of those things have rotted!
