The guides on wiki are alot of help, and pretty much the best ways to go about it. I used Xarc's guide. Demon arrows cap at 69, they are your next synth. Make sure you get guild support and even with a large amount of breaks early on, the mats are so cheap and come in stacks of 99 you should still break even at least if you quiver and ah them all.


Edit: Just noticed thread is 69+, not 61+ lol. It's early ><
anyway do the ancient lumber route, caps at 72, and save them all if you plan to go past 80. At 72 I just jumped straight to ebony pole's. Buying lumber from ah and npcing poles was very little loss and was the cheapest way to 79 I found. Then you can use all the ancient lumber you saved earlier to make mythic wands. I would suggest you start camping the ah now though for phoenix feathers, they really suck to get a hold of ><

One thing I did on woodworking, is level fishing and then invest in -- or fish up the carp for a lu shang's rod. (You'll be glad in many ways that you got this!)

It can carry you to 80 woodworking for the cost of crystals only as long as you're careful not to get smacked by a monster, or get zoned mid-synth.

If you don't have the patience to level fishing and get a lu rod, try and make a friend who is doing the ebisu rod quest. It's a lot of sitting around, but it's free skillups pretty much. Just supply the crystals and you should be good hehe.

I hope this helps~

From a quick glance, still looks like Petrified Logs until 72, then elemental staves until 75. I would them repair a lu shangs rod 72~ to 80.

Just pull up the recipe on wiki and find the cheapest thing within 8 levels, cap on it, rinse and repeat.

Only other thing (I can't remember) is do things that are reusable or consumable like bast parchment or ninjar tools

I was afraid of this :< I don't have fishing leveled so that might be a very expensive synth lol


funny how staves are now the go to synth-

I was hoping there might be a cheaper synth as staves are pretty much a loss now =/ But at least I have somewhere to start!
