Extremely Easy to fish up in Port Bastok Halcyon Rod (better the rod less chance of losing your rig) Sabiki Rig, this rig is very important you can fish up to 3 fish at once. Drop any "bad feelings" or "positive you dont have enough skill" or you will lose your rig.

File:Roast mutton.jpg

Fire Crystal - Dried Marjoram, Giant Sheep Meat, Mhaura Garlic
NQ yield - Roast Mutton

Buy the Mhaura Garlic (~60 gil) from Cooking Guild Merchants In Windurst Waters or Ahyeekih in Windurst Waters (H-10) if Windy holds Kolshushu Region. Buy the Dried Marjoram (~36 gil) from Cooking Guild Merchants In Windurst Waters or Upih Khachla in Windurst Waters (H-9), whichever is cheaper. Farm the Giant Sheep Meat in Konschtat Highlands off of Mad Sheep Drop Rate is 51%. Craft the Sheepskin to Sheep Leather and sell these in stacks for easy money or save for leathercraft. From level 11-12 you will need advanced synth support. Take to cap and DO NOT craft of spot, craft near an NPC so you can get your money back for the materials you bought.

Test Item 18-20

• Pea Soup level 18
  

Fire Crystal - Blue Peas x 3, Wild Onion, Dried Marjoram, Distilled Water

You know where the Dried Marjoram is, Distilled Water can be bought from nearly anywhere but Ness Rugetomal in Windurst Waters (F-10) just incase you do something horrible like try to buy it from AH. Wild Onions can be farmed in King Ranperre's Tomb of off Goblin Thugs (levels 4-8) 36.8% drop rate or bought from AH for ~1k a piece, your choice. Blue Peas (~25 gil) are a bought through regional vendors, Norvallen Region, Bastok Mines Mille (G-6), Southern San d'Oria Machielle (G-9), Port Windurst Posso Ruhbini (D-7). Seriously, save yourself the traveling and buy it from AH, Cooking Guild Merchants or Upper Jeuno Glyke (F-7) for ~1,400 gil.

• Meat Jerky Level 26
  

Ice Crystal - Dried Marjoram, Giant Sheep Meat, Rock Salt
NQ yield - Meat Jerky x 2

Remember the Giant Sheep Meat?? You'll need more. Dried Marjoram should sound familiar. Rock Salt (~14 gil) Cooking Guild Merchants. From Level 17 - 21, get advanced synth support. This is a 9 level synth so you will break, of course, but once you get the first level things should go fine. These stack so they are more forgiving than Roast Mutton, therefore, you can craft on the spot when you hit level 21. NPC These off or you can try to AH a stack or two to make a little more. You can take this to cap or when you hit level 21 you can proceed to Insect Balls with advanced synth support

• Insect Ball Level 29
  

Earth Crystal - Little Worm, Millioncorn, Distilled Water
NQ yield - Insect Ball x 12

Buy Millioncorn (~36 gil) from Cooking Guild Merchants or Southern San d'Oira Benaige (J-8). Little Worm (~3 gil) Port Windurst Babubu (C-8). Buy a Water Tank, it saves money in the end. Cap at 29 please. Then sell on AH in Jeuno or Windy for a minor profit, use as bait for Moat Carp or NPC the rest.

Test Item 28-30

• Vegetable Gruel Level 28
  

Fire Crystal - San d'Orian Flour, Chamomile, Frost Turnip, Rarab Tail, Distilled Water, Beaugreens

I HATE synths that need alot of Materials. Buy this from AH in windy/jeuno or see if guild has any in stock.

• Fish Broth Level 37
  

Water Crystal - Bastore Sardine x 4
NQ yield - Fish Broth x 2

Back to fishing. From levels 29 - 32 get advanced synth support, after you can craft on the spot. You can NPC these or on AH they sell average at about 1k a stack. Either way, take to cap.

Test Item 38 - 40

• Meat Mithkabob Level 38
  

Fire Crystal - Cockatrice Meat, Wild Onion, Mhaura Garlic, Kazham Peppers

Dont make these right now, Buy them from AH, Trust. HQ these when you get up to 60 for profits.

• Pie Dough Level 42
  

Water Crystal - Selbina Butter, Rock Salt, San d'Orian Flour
NQ yield - Pie Dough x 4

Rock Salt, you know. Selbina Butter can be bought from AH or made yourself:

   File:Selbina butter.jpg
   Selbina Butter level 20
   Ice Crystal - Selbina Milk, Rock Salt
   NQ yield - Selbina Butter x 4 (HQ 1 = 6, HQ 2 = 9, H3 = 12)

Probably better to make yourself as now you have a better chance to HQ it, P.S. Selbina Milk (~54 gil) can be bought in Selbina Dohdjuma (G-10). Buy San d'Orian Flour (~45 gil) from Southern San d'Oria Benaige, these flours do not stacks, so this synth is best done in Sandy. DO NOT NPC/SELL. thanks.

Fire Crystal - Pie Dough, Cinnamon, Maple Sugar, Faerie Apple, Bird Egg
NQ yeild - Apple Pie x 4

Pie Dough, you should have alot of. Maple Sugar (~33 gil) can be cheaply bought the Cooking Guild Merchants or Southern San d'Oria Benaige (F-7). Faerie Apples (~33 gil) can be bought from our friend Southern San d'Oria Aveline (F-7) or Cooking Guild Merchants. Cinnamon, costs a little (~195 gil), from Southern San d'Oria Benaige (F-7). Bird Eggs (~50 gil) can be bought in the Port of the 1st and 2nd place nations, Bastok Denvihr (G-7), Sandy Albinie (H-6), Windy Uli Pehkowa (M-7). From levels 42 - 45 you will need advanced synth support, after that you can synth in Sandy where everything is. You will make alot of these and you can't expect to AH them all, Just AH when you can for a profit/make up what you've lost and NPC the rest.

Test Item 48 - 50
