Since making this thread I went and did the same synth all over again. I used just over 6 stacks of lightning clusters which should put me at 70+ synths. I received 0.9 levels of skill. That puts me at a total of 13 0.1 skillups for 130-140 synths. Does that not seem absurd to you? I remember doing the last few levels of clothcraft in retail and it being nearer to the territory of 25-30 synths per level. Searching online seems to suggest a similar skill-up rate.

To put this into perspective, this would be over 130 dalmaticas / blessed briaults for 1.3 levels of skill if I was crafting at 98-100. Worse if it was crafting Dalmatica when you consider that it would be in the 1-2 skill cap zone levels compared to the 3-5 I've been crafting at.

Try the same synth, but follow direction/day/moon, and see if it's any different.

Your estimations are correct. In 2016 it took me 226 synths of damaticas / blessed briault to go from 98 to 100.

took me around 25 rasetsue samues synthed and desynthed so around 50 synths for 98-99. 16 dalmaticas and 10 blessed bodies synthed and desynthed so 36 synths 99-100. I also was lucky and got two .3 skillups going from 99.1 to 99.4 on one synth and 99.5 to 99.8 on the same day. Rip New moon. Rip crafting being fun.

I did about 300-350 synths from 81-82 cooking Fruit parfs. It was painful.

I did safe direction instead of skillup direction since I rathered non breaking then skilling up; I still need to make more and I'm dreading it.

"safe" direction doesn't exist. Direction, moon, and day don't play a part in crafting at all, renala.

I appreciate you sharing your numbers although they are also confusing. Your reports are wildly different from one another.

Crafting yields wildly different results. Both back then and now. That's why anyone claiming to have figured out this new system entirely already is probably full of themselves. I did also say I got lucky.

What I don't understand is if we have the code to the game, why can no one give an absolute answer whether or not day/moon/direction play a part in crafting. There shouldn't be a rift in beliefs, just a simple yes or no from Nasomi.
