Hello everyone, i'm casual crafter and i wanna fibnish skill upping my leatchercraft 99>110
my plan is spam:

Aetosaur Jerkin (skill 109 with earth cristal)

and if i understood well with this informations:
http://ffxiclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Crafting_Skill_Ups?file=Chart.jpg
http://ffxi.lokyst.net/timer/crafttimer.html

the best choise for this craft is wait:
-New moon(increase skill ip+),
-lightday(same propriety as darkday with less chance of break),
-And craft faced South-East(increase skill up+) ?
can you confirm me i'm right or correct me to improve my skill rate ?
thanx to you veterans crafter !

Everyone will tell you day/direction/moon phase has no part in crafting, and to be honest they're not wrong, I've gotten great results at any given time regardless of day/direction/moon phase so it could be superstition or not even tho I still pref to do majority of any attempted HQ's during certain time/moon. In reality what you can do to best help yourself is get Orvail's Ring from Adoulin storyline and craft in Adoulin w/ Ionis on and Kitron Macaron. Those 3 options are the only thing that will definitively help you skill up w/o relying on superstition. Edit: minus shaper's shawl which is the forbidden fruit of the crafting world.

I've always done facing direction, as for day, I always either do it on the day that is strong to the crystal I'm using or darksday, both have enchanced skill up rate and data to back up that this is the case.

Moonphase however has no evidence to support it has an effect.

yea that's why I say none of that is really supported as evidence, in my screenshots I have 4/12 Cursed Cuisses -1 done on lightsday/full moon facing NE. Tried it same day/moon/direction again few days later , not a single -1. And it varies like that.

Really, the only know about cardinal direction and elements is that in the night sky, if you look up, there is a star in each of the 8 directions that is a different color, corresponding to that directions "element".

No. The recipes you can gain skill ups on are based on your base skill. I was getting skill ups on a 102 recipe, when my combined skill was 118.

Difficult to say, when I did it I used Dija swords, but with the changes to skilling up you'd be able to reach 110 with Saline Broth and Sun Water but at a slower rate.

So I'd still say Dija Swords since the mats are easily obtainable.

Thanks, I'd not seen those :)
