[Cureslime]

Barf what do I level cooking on for levels 12+? Am I stuck with plums, maple sap, and sand forever?

[miokomioko]

So. Much. Sand.

Is there a general rule for how highly ranked you need to be in order to repair an armor/weapon? Is it based on the optimal rank of the finished item or what rank you need to be to attempt to create it?
For example, what would be the minimum rank of goldsmithing required to repair a brass dagger or brass rings & choker?

[Grey Jorildyn]

Some of said a general rule is ten levels below the item's rank to repair it, but this is not reliable with certain items.

[BerenTebogo]

For bronze haub are people using main hand or offhand?

[Elcura]

Is 25 a good time to start spamming canvas? I don't think I can handle another level of cotton.

[Ratatapa]

I started at 25 with a ration on 1 fail per 3-4 synth

Still break alot at 28

[Ratatapa]

How do you get more appraisal quality on Synth leaves?

Finish with like 90 durability 60 quality and only get 5 pts appraisal

[Rammses]

I'd wait for 5000 marks before skilling on canvas.

Durability has nothing to do with appraisal afaik, only thing that matters is quality.

[Ratatapa]

Been sitting on 4600 marks for like 4 leaves reset

Still nothing from LL today hope Uldah Pays off

Appraisal is a portion of your quality. The portion depends on how many items you need to create. If the leve requires that you create two items, each synth will increase your appraisal by 50% of your quality. Yes, you have 4 attempts at the synth, so you can definitely stack up the appraisal value. If you're required to craft 4 items, you'll have 6 attempts and get 25% of each synth's quality.

Could've sworn that your approval value was quality / number of synths (total). Not quality / number of synths (to complete).

Like in your example, if you need 2 synths to finish and you have 4 tries, each completed synth increases your approval by a 1/4 of your quality (meaning to get 100 approval, each item needs >100 quality).

Canvas: I know I should wait to get the weaving ability, but I'm 24 sitting at 2300 marks. I'm probably not getting any ability till 30 (considering I'm 1/21 for marks).

That's how it was in beta, but I'm pretty sure it's divided by the total number of materials you get now, instead of the number required.

A repair rank database needs to be done. There is no set rule when it comes to that. Each item has its own individual repair rank.
You can repair a Frayed Cotton Doublet Vest which uses Velveteen Fents as WVR 11, you can repair a Silver Scepter which uses a Silver Nugget as GLD 11 but you can't repair a Silver Choker which uses the same material as GLD 18, but you can make those at that rank with a decent degree of success.

You can repair anything if it's optimal rank is within 10 levels of your crafting rank. The lower your crafting rank from the optimal, the lower your success rate is.

Untrue. I could not even attempt to repair my Bone Armilla +3 (rank 14) at rank 15 goldsmithing.

[Elcura]

I think he means the optimal rank to make the item, not use it.

[qpoiuwer]

Untrue. I could not even attempt to repair my Bone Armilla +3 (rank 14) at rank 15 goldsmithing.

It's possible that HQ items work different... I heard a report that someone couldn't repair a bronze haubergeon +1 at 8 levels below. Every report I've heard for NQ items has been you can start repairing at 10 levels below the optimal rank.

[Zisa]

I made a few walnut wands at rank 25 carpenter, but I could not repair a damaged one I saw in someone's bazaar, giving me the "wait until you are a higher level" message. They are listed at the bottom of the 21-30 recipe list on Lodestone.

I was not able to repair my Dodoskin Harness (optimal rank 23, craft lvl 15 per YG) and Dodoskin Subligar (optimal rank 23, craft level 21 per YG) as Rank 12 Leatherworker, but when I ranked up to 13, I was "allowed" to repair it. I have not actually repaired the items so I cannot report on success rate of repair.

Additionally, I was able to repair the Leather Tool Belt (optimal rank 16, craft level 21) as rank 12 Leatherworker.
