The title pretty much sums it up, has there been any research into working out PM evolution stages and stats as pertains to item synthesis?
What I've seen thus far has been suggestions that the PM's statistics influence the success rate like so:
Power - Melee Weapons
Dex - Ranged Weapons
Def - Armor
Mind - Force Weapons
Other people have mentioned seeing the success percentage rise and fall dramatically whenever their PM evolves. If the whole 'statistic = better synthesis' holds with the evolutions, then one can assume that the best melee synthesis will come from a 410 with 100 power, ranged synthesis from a 430 with 100 dex, armor synthesis from a 440 with 100 def, and force synthesis from a 450 with 100 mind.
However, is that the case in practice as well as theory? Has anyone leveled multiple PMs and kept track of their synthesis percentages to know if that's actually how it works?
Player-synthed equipment looks like it's going to be the way to get the best gear in the game, so having a stable of PMs optimized to have the highest success rate strikes me as being a player's best friend. Nobody wants to watch the Nei Claws board that's a one in a million drop result in a monomate, after all...
