High Level Alchemists

[Xantho]

Hi am currently lvl 57 alchemy and make my money by crafting black inks from the nebimonites I catch fishing (57 fishing). I currently avg 36 or more inks with HQ. I was thinking about raising alchemy to 80 to increase the number of HQ i get. If anybody around 80 could tell me around how many inks I should expect it would greatly be appreciated.

It's about the same rate as yours. I have 85.5 alchemy.

This is assuming not during full/new moon, just any moon/day though.

So are you saying that I will not notice much of a difference between the lvl 57 alchemy I have now and 80 alchemy? Thx again for your help.

Since the test sample is small, you can draw such conclusion. However, I've noticed I did very well vs. beeswax compare when I had 50ish skill. Most of my combines are HQ when making beeswax regardless days/moon.

Also, when your skill gets higher, you'll be able to HQ syn higher lvl more profitable recipes. For quick money turn around, holy water would be one of them. 357 each holy water sell direct back to vendor with max fame. It's fast money when you can HQ syn left and right consider 1 stack of light crystals sell for 2500-3k. I've gotten HQ3 (4 holy water) few times, that's one way to make quick few K if you have few minutes to spend.

2.5-3k? Man, I wish I was on Ifrit T.T

7k a stack for the past 2 weeks on Carbuncle. Occasionally 6k in one of the three cities.
