Element Percentages

[eightball]

Soooo i've heard different things...i synth a decent amount of time and barely ever make anything over 24%...does anyone out there synthing these 50% weapons have any secrets or tips...i've heard you can feed it certain things, i've heard you synth on female cast luck days...etc. Any help would be appreciated

You must have the luck of the psu gods at your side.

First you must succeed at the syn then you have to worry about the %. Before you know it you would have wasted all your photons on just crappy % in the (10-18%)

-_- i just failed all my Ran masaki. Im bitter.

Mass produce a bunch of weapons at once with a single element choice. Increases the odds slightly.

Slightly. mainly luck.(None of that daily race luck, but real life luck.)

I always had to worst luck synthing Lightining Yamata-Senba. Many failed and/or could never get one over 18%

Tried again one day- 3 at a time and got one at 34% Lightning

I just synthed a 50% Dark Ran-Misaki the other day and it was my second round of claws. I would suggest mass producing, as CyarVictor said, but it really comes down to luck and patience.

I synthed two 50% weapons both an ice and light Falchion, it's just plain ordinary luck. Though I did get both to +5 so far http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

i always synth more than 4 weapons at a time. When i ran out of photon i just play with my FO and solo S2 linear line for more photon then repeat the cycle until i got a 50% weapon. To get 50% u have to continuously make them and hopefully one day u get a 50% that is all. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime1.gif I got one 50% light nightwalker and 50% fire phantom line, but i already traded them. Just keep at it and u will eventually get your 50% one day. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/anime2.gif

If you don't Mass Produce said weapon or armor, you're wasting your time. Sure, you could get lucky, but you probably wont.

It's purely luck... my amazing Crea Doubles are purely luck, but none of my massive number of other synths has ever been anything good.

alright all thanks a lot for the input

[Suz]

Honestly, it really is all up to chance. Yeah sure you can craft 36 fire buccaneers and you KNOW some will pass with good % but a good hefty ammount will be low and crappy. The first light buccaneer I crafted came out 44% light. highest i've ever done, just spam whatever item/armor you want with your element of choice. And if the game spazzes out for a breif moment and decies to bless you with high% then it will happen. Other than that, welcome to the 10% and the 12% weapon makers. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

I basically hate folks who can afford to mass synth items.

until I can too. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

All you mass sythers must be on PS2/PC

::cries::

[Shiro_Ryuu]

Haxeta ftw =D

[CyarVictor]

Nope, just thanks to Lab S2. I'm the 360, but i mainly mass produce 6-8 star weapons. My bot is 80/20 and I'm too lazy to reset her so 9* and Vahra Claws i tend to shove into a friends pure strike bot.

I made something in the neighborhood of sixty Survivors in quick succession earlier this year and of that I only got two with 50%. Two of sixty-some-odd. Broke one grinding (like an idiot), too.

I would grind a 50% B rank weapon. All the way to 2.

So, to some up the tips on making 50% weps, there is none. Just keep on trying, and keep you fingers crossed. I still think it has something to do with Moon phases and what color car passes you house at 6:42pm each day. I always wait for a full moon and hope I see a green car. Not to mention the placement of my room decorations.

[eightball]

thanks man...i have a friend with a green car so maybe i'll just have him keep driving passed my house while i'm synthing...thanks for the advice..hahaha

I synth on average 32 Armors & 32 melee Weapons daily , & I've gone streaks where i'll get a 44% one day , a 50% the next , a 44% the next , then 5 to 10 days with nothing over 30% , it's all so random it's not even funny. All I know is about the time you don't even worry about getting a 50% , & you pretty much stop looking at the %'s, then you'll have a 50% fly your way & surprize the crap right outta ya

Over all though , my experiences are as follows

Synth 200 of the same exact item , of the same element .... 100 of those will pretty much fail for sure , & if you're lucky, about 100 will come out good .... out of those 100, you should have (1) 50% in there , if not , maybe (2) 44%'s , least that is what I am finding here
