Alch/Synth: Difficulty vs Proficiency

Hey guys, what is the relationship between difficulty and proficiciency for alch/synth?

I want to be able to make high quality orichalcum, but I only have 209/320 difficulty and it says I need more proficiency (normal ori is 209/240)

My proficiency is currently level 87 with a cap of 100, but I can shuffle some skill points to increase this further, if required.

Can anyone tell me what synthesis proficiency I need before I can make high quality orichalcum? Or even normal orichalcum, for that matter?

 

Tech contributes to your difficulty level so you can try leveling your character more for tech stats

 

255 tec
I heard somewhere that dex also increases difficulty. Is this true? Should I put my spare stat points into dex?
Does wearing items with dex boosts also boost your difficulty?

My character is exclusivly synthesis/refinement (thus the desire to synth high quality orichalcum)

 

I read your level wrong. My bad. But yes, DEX increases difficulty but idk by how much. Wearing DEX equips can contribute also.

 

Thx. Good to know, I'll try this when I get a chance to login again. Ideally, I'd really like a chart that shows how many difficulty points you get for each proficiency level, and the formulae for any mods like tec and dex.

Hopefully some smart data-mining cookie will make one.....one day

 

Dex equips add 1 difficulty per 8 Dex.

 

not per 6?

 

1 dex, 255 tec, 209 difficulty.
I added stat points to dex 1 by 1.
At 6 dex i bumped to 210 difficulty

 

You're correct it's six my bad
