Has anyone seen any data regarding skill up food and shaper's shawl on desynthesis skill ups?
Gimme a min, I have some data somewhere...
EDIT:I didn't keep track of which synths were within 5 skill of the cap, so I've no idea which of the failed desynths could have skilled up. But here's what I've got.
From my notes....
Goldsmithing
Shaper's+Kitron macaron
95~102 skill + Stall + Support + shades
209 desynths
96 fails
113 successes
Skill ups from desynths 0.
I dunno if this was in the level range you wanted to know about, but it's what I've got. Maybe I just have crappy luck.
In case you're interested, my skillup rate for normal synths with shaper's+kitron macaron...
lvl 95~104
239 Synths
90 Skill ups
37.65% Skill up rate

I cant find any were what the cap for magic for drk is at level 24.Can anyone tell me and tell me a place i can check it next time so i do not need to ask later when i level drk more.
Go here find out the skill rating of the magic/wep that your job has then below that go to the level you want to check on and go over to the rating. Drk has A- in dark so at lvl 24 it caps at 75.

You sir, are awesome.
Many people would have said it was a dumb idea, however, you put your money where your mouth is.
Thank you very much. I was trying to avoid npcing my Silver Cassandra despite only needing .2 more.
Do we not know what ADLs Lv/stats and any other mobs for endgame?

37.65% rate of skill up seems normal for me w/o shaper's. 24-30 synths is what i plan on for a lvl 99+.
Guess its an increase though, just looked it up, i did 35 synths for 103-104. so a little lower.
Can a shadow breastplate be augmented with the same augments as the valkyries breastplate? Or can it be augmented at all?
EDIT: Answered my own question, forgot to check BG.

NQ versions have a lower maximum augment value.

I have also done this with Gold Hairpins. Despite noticing a dramatic reduction in break rate from synthing with 58+ total skill, I never received a skillup from successful or unsuccessful desynthesis.
Are any of the new tier II salvage zones better for farming alexandrite than SSR tier I if you're averaging 70-90 without a linen with a group of 3.
Can you be more specific? How much would you average on what ones? And this is again, for 3 people.
Do you have to complete all of the Gobbie Bag quests before you can do Lure Of The Wildcats(Jeuno)?
Trying to get it done for my mule and Bluffnix just goes on about Gobbie Bags.
Edit: Nvm, done it now, seems you just talk to him regardless of what he says, same with Shami and Sagheera.

Most nms can drop cotton pouchs quite a low drop rate though, NQ boss has a small chance at a linen pouch, HQ boss has a high chance (100%?) of dropping a linen pouch.
Most of the high floors are dedicated to Archaic mobs which all also drop alexandrite.
You're guaranteed over 100 alex, just by farming plans/bosses.
edit: uhhhh, Quote derp?

By HQ boss do you mean the tier2 Salvage ZB? I've yet to go into any of the tier2 salvages.
Yeah, Neo Salvage.
On the floor just before the top floor, you can fight the boss that would otherwise be on the top floor; it's exactly the same, this has a low chance of dropping a linen pouch.
DefeatingSpawning this mob will allow the HQ boss to spawn in its place on the top floor, giving you more opportunities for 45 pieces and it will drop a Linen pouch.
So even without dedicating a run to farming alexandrite, there's the chance of obtaining 50-198 Alex just from killing the bosses.

Ok yea im looking it over on BG at the moment here. So is pretty much all the alex from linen? Cause I don't see many archaic gear in this layout, or the types of mobs that drop alex. Are there any mobs that drop cotton's?

Some Plan nms can drop cotton purses, at which rate I don't know, but during last nights run I had obtained 2 in the same zone, so more than 1 cotton purse is possible, as far as which nms can drop it I don't know, it could just possibly be nms on higher floors.
As for Gear layout, you should see for yourself, each Neo-Salvage zone has a large amount of gears on the upper floors.
As Llewelyn said, Arrapago Remnants II yields slightly more alex.
If you read the guide to the salvage II zones, it'll tell you which floor (usually the last 2-3 floors before boss) you will find the gears in each zone.
All Acroliths can drop pouches as well. NM or not.
Is there any good way to trio Zhayolm Remnants I for the Mega Bosses drops? I can only think of Migawari tanking it or having a bigger group to survive Discoid. Any other setups I'm missing?
We did it without a NIN and just had our healer go /SMN. With an MDT set I never dropped below 60% HP on DRK, but the THF and WHM occasionally fell in the red since they didn't bring an MDT set.
Edit: Basically, yes you can trio ZR boss by either having your healer go /SMN or bringing a different kind of pet job. No MDT set required, but recommended.

Thw above is a little misleading, while technically accurate. The difference in difficulty is very noticible. My point being that pretty much any competent player can pull in 70-90 (not counting linen)in ssr, however to beat those numbers in salvage2 one of the DDs needs to be well geared (at least empy 90, nni gear etc).

Greatly appreciated input, Llewelyn, exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
Are there more locations for the Indescript Markings in Pashow(s) than listed here http://wiki.ffxiclopedia.org/wiki/Scholar%27s_Pants (or other requirements not listed?) There's no weather and it's not up anywhere at any of those locations :(
So I have people on my /flist from 2003... I think my list is filled, as I cannot add anyone else, but I can't figure out how to remove anyone. Anyone know? Thanks!
