*note* -I had full AF when I was testing- I am not sure if it was because of the Ability on the AF body and AF feet gear that had effect on this. I know that the ability on the af makes it stronger when curing. Using this healed my pet for 154 HP but I also took notice that it cured my pets 'paralyzed' status. I tested it over and over and it does remove paralyze from a pet. Again, I do not know if AF has to be equiped for it to cure Paralyze from a pet.
this is my first post but i was making them today and my cooking is lvl 51. i was hq synthing 8 to 10 even 12 at one time.i really need help in making money with cooking pleae help with any suggestions
I make these for profit. Not the best profit compared to other things you can do per hour, but somehow it works for me. If I synth for 2 hours and make 36 stacks, I make about 15k when selling it back to the vendor. I have Hero fame in San Doria and Cooking 60.
1. If you have Rank 5 and your Nation is in 1st or 2nd place, you can buy the Eggs at the Airship merchant: 600gils a stack for me. 2. Buy the crystals and meat for as cheap as possible (during non New/Full Moon days), sixth stacks at a time is what I do. 3. Buy the Horo flour when your nation has control of Aragoneu and buy the water from a merchant.
If you do all this you can make 15k in 2 hours. I often get HQ when doing this on a New/Full Moon, I get 8 or 10 instead of 6 per synth.

lol, im finding posts that i did when I was like 20th level. What was great gil at 20 isn't all that good at 62^^. This was meant for the lower level characters.
making money with these? i had to buy the flour at 40 bucks a pop to put into these biscuits...an npc only wants to give me 54 gil for one. Where is the best place to pawn these buggers off at ^^. My email addresss is Ford_Cobra@excite.com if you dont want to post it in here. THANKS for any help you can provide!
NPC buy rates are attached to your fame. Get more famous, the price of each biscuit goes up. But I promise you you won't get much more per biscuit (maybe 2-4G more per).
Are you expecting to get rich running the pet food treadmill? 14G profit per biscuit is what you can expect to get from ANY recipe where the NPC sellback rate is higher than the cost of the materials. People who sell dhalmel meat aren't stupid. They know that their customers are treadmilling cooks and they know at what price treadmillers are going to soak up their product.
If you want real money from your cooking find a recipe that sells well at the AH and is in low supply. Then buy the cheapest ingredients and cook away. That is how crafting is supposed to work.
But I promise you you won't get much more per biscuit (maybe 2-4G more per).
The yield is 6 biscuits MINIMUM. Your "Promise" is based off of a yield of one. This is ridiculously profitable. I'll do a P&L for you so you can understand how this works:
(All Prices Shiva 8/2/04) Earth x 12 400 D.Meat x 12 600 Horo x 12 480 Water x 12 132 Egg x 12 600 ------------------------- Cost For 12 Synth = 2212 Yield = 6 Stacks (MINIMUM) @ 660 / Stack ------------------------- Revenue = 3960 Cost of Goods Sold = 2212 NET PROFIT = 1748 !!!!!!
I have done first two gobbie bag quests so I have 40 Inventory slots. I can bring 5 Stacks of Crystal/Meat/Water/Egg and camp infront of Horo flour merchant (Flour does not stack) and just synth until I get a PT. Original author stated he makes 15k / 2 hr. I did a dry run last night and made 15k in 1 hr just from NPC. If I have nothing else on AH, I'll put up 7 on my main and 7 on my mule since AH buy rate is 1200 compared to ~600 from NPC.
Other tips: Killing Dhamel in the Peninsula often yield two meat per Dhamel. It is a common drop. Do not drive the price of meat on the AH over 900 gil/stack. You are doing yourself a great dis-service if you do so. I buy the meat in Windy since it seems to have the greatest surplus. I sit infront of the Gobbie cook in the junk shop of lower jueno for my flour because my HP is always in Jueno.
Is there a HQ version of this synth that will give more then yield 6? Like with Delta bisquits. Please lemme know if there is, I'd really appreciate it.
There is a HQ version. I was making these for my own use, and once made 8 instead of 6. But because I have a lvl 93 cooking skill, and only made 1 HQ after about 20 synths, I would consider it almost not worth metioning.
