what up KB!
hey I know I dont play and know very little about WW but I do know if you want to get it to 100 your best bet is to choose your own path. Just because someone says this path is the easyiest doesn't absolutely mean its the right path for you. A clear example for me was doing leather...the guides are great to reference but they didn't always suit my needs.
Sometimes the guides will be the fastest way, no always the cheapest. In my case I wanted to level up very cheap, but once I got to 80 (as far as leathercraft goes) I realized the cheap path could take alot longer. So really its up to you in terms of what synths you do, there are many many things to consider... costs, ammount of mats, does the synth require rare items, can you get the synth mats off a npc, etc.
there really is no set path, just research WW on ffxiah and look at your possible synths, do some research. Sometimes there will be a synth you can do but the mats for it can be rare on AH although you might save yourself a few 100k in the end just by doing it. Do whats best for YOU, not what other people say.
Also I know seeing other crafters pop 50mil HQ can be very deceiving but don't make that influence you to level a craft. I know for one that watching what other crafters did and made greatly impacted what I choose to level a craft, and why I even chose leather. I eventually just really started to enjoy it because I knew I could do it, it was my goal. If you do recall though KB, towards the end 70ish I was not playing in endgame(besides dynamis), I was only logging on to craft. Also to finish the goal I sold nearly all my equip to have a good bit of money on hand. I will say, focusing on just crafting made it alot quicker than I ever expected. Although in the end getting 100 was just a other accomplishment, it meant nothing much once I got it. I didn't HQ dusk like I wanted, and it went downhill from there and I eventually just quit. So best of luck and reconsider it before you do it, people dont lie when they say its time consuming and costly. Keep in mind also, other people can make HQing look alot easyier than how it works out for you.
PS: Not to bash but, WW is no money craft imo and CC is over populated with 100s... be smart and join the leather guild.
I appreciate your comments/advice/warnings/bribings, though, Juve. lol. Nice to hear you're still around, prowling the corners of QCDN.
