[Guide] Smithing to 110
Note: This is a literal copy and paste of the text from the original page. This was done in case Valhalla private server ever goes offline, taking this valuable resource with it.
This guide will primarily focus on break synthing, where you craft items that are much higher level than your current level in order to break the synthesis, thus leading to an overall less items (and gil) expenditure in the path to reach level 110. |
