You can have great success with skillups and HQing if it is earthsday.

Can someone confirm the level cap for the third recipe, Lightning + Yew Fishing Rod? I tried this 4 times with level 16 woodworking, on watersday, and failed each time.
That is a desynthesis recipe. Desynthing isn't very consistant and results in many fails even well above the given caps. Being below the cap just makes the odds that much worse.
The only experience I have with desynthing below the cap is with Beetle Rings in order to attempt to get the Beetle Jaw back for further skill-ups. I was failing about 75-85% of the time.
i've synthed about 12 stacks of these with level 51 woodworking, but i haven't leveled at all. even more strangely, i seem to be getting quite a bit of HQ synths (about 1/6 of the time). does this seem strange to anyone else?
The cap is lvl 59 ONLY if you use the lumberjack key item.

The cap is wrong, it's 22. I suspect someone with skill 59 sent this info.

No, as far as I can tell, all the lumberjack synths have the same cap as the normal synths.
And with that, I mean 'tell from experience'.

I can't confirm it yet, but that is the new recipe from the CoP expansion. The bundling twine should be available in the furnishing shop in San d'Oria and the lumberjack is supposed to be a key item obtainable from the the Woodworkers guild with Guild points.

I went from 13 to 20 almost entirely on Yew Lumber. The guild sells Yew Logs for about 550 G on good days (for a total of 6600 G for 12 logs) and on Seraph, in San d'Oria, a stack sells for 6000 G, so if you farm the Wind Crystals yourself, you lose comparatively little leveling up on Yew Lumber.
Oh, and in response to the previous post...you can log Yew Logs in East Ronfaure or Jugner Forest, and then use the recipe listed above to make Yew Lumber.
He sells them for about 330 i think in North Carpenters Landing. He sells the budleing Twine, The only use i can see for it is more logs for your money.
The only experience I have with desynthing below the cap is with Beetle Rings in order to attempt to get the Beetle Jaw back for further skill-ups. I was failing about 75-85% of the time.
