Alchemy Guide by Immortality for Skill not Gil
This is a note that all my guides are written for the express intention of obtaining skill with disregard to money spent, if the skill up craft recipe makes money that's a bonus side effect.
That being said you will want advanced synthesis support from the guild in order to control breaks.
This is a requirement until you are within 5 levels of a recipes cap. You will not get skill ups on breaks if you are more than 5 levels from the cap.
Nearly every recipe I'll use comes from ingredients you can get from shops.
You can farm elemental clusters in Sky or in Sea if you have access.
Path:
0-6: Tsurara (Ice Crystal + Distilled Water x2 + Rock Salt) : Buy the salt and water at Raimbroy’s in Sandy.
6-12: Poison Dust: (Lightning Crystal + Yellow Globe x2) : Buy the Yellow Globes from Cehn Teyohngo on the Open sea route to Al Zahbi. Yes you need to get on the boat. You can $tele out after buying the fish.
12-18: Poison Potion (Water Crystal + Mercury + Poison Dust) : Either use the dust you just made or buy from guild vendor. This is also your guild test item.
18-24: Silent Oil (Water Crystal, Beeswax x2, Slime Oil) Alchemy guild sells beehive chips, turn these into beeswax. Slime oil: Alchemy Guild Vendor.
24-29: Silent Oil (Water Crystal, Beeswax x2, Olive Oil) Same as above buy beehive chips from guild and turn into beeswax. Olive oil can be bought from Raimbroy’s in Sandy. You can skip right to this from Poison Potions and power through if you want.
29-40: Firesand (Earth Crystal + Bomb Ash x2 + Sulfur) : Materials are all available at the Alchemy Guild Vendor. Save all the Firesand you make for later synths.
40-51: Holy Water (Light Crystal + Distilled Water) : Super simple synth with super cheap ingredients. Distilled Water: Raimbroy’s.
51-57: Quake Grenade (Earth Crystal, Iron Ingot x2, Sulfur, Firesand x2, Bomb Ash x3) : Iron Ingot: Smithing Guild vendor, Sulfur, Bomb Ash, and Firesand are all available at the Alchemy Guild Vendor.
57-67: Venom Potion (Water Crystal + Venom Dust + Mercury) : Materials are all available at the Alchemy Guild Vendor.
67-75: Venom Bolt Heads (Wind Crystal, Venom Potion, Bronze Ingot, Animal Glue) : Use the venom potions you just made, Animal glue from the guild vendor and Bronze ingot's from the Smithing guild.
75-83: Ouuku Ranman (Earth Crystal + Firesand + Amaryllis + Bast Parchment x2) : Firesand: Alchemy Guild, Amaryllis: M&P Market In Upper Jeuno, Bast Parchment: Vuliaie in Norg.
83-93: Cannon Shell (Fire Crystal + Bomb Arm + Brass Ingot + Firesand x2 + Iron Ingot) : This is not a fun synth but it is one of the only ones where you can get everything from a vendor. Bomb Arm: Nogga in Metalworks, Firesand: Alchemy Guild Vendor, Brass Ingot: will need to make from materials sold at the Goldsmithing guild, Iron Ingot: Smithing Guild vendor.
93-99: Cantarella ( Dark Crystal + Distilled Water + Fresh Orc Liver + Mercury + Paralysis Dust + Venom Dust) : You will need to farm the Orc Liver's in Dynamis Sandy. Paralysis Dust: Stinknix in Lower Jeuno, Water: Raimbroy’s, Mercury and Venom Dust are both sold at the Alchemy guild.
99+ This is a work in progress and will be updated once I find appropriate synth recipes.
