View source for Synthesis tips (script)

This article describes the synthesis tips viewed from the "Synthesize an item" menu of a [[partner machine]]. 

==Synthesis time==

Some items you can make in Network Mode 
can take time to synthesize. The more rare 
or higher rank the item is, the more time it 
will take. 

==Synthesis boards==

Synthesis boards must be inserted into 
your partner machine to be used. 
Select [Insert board] to select a board 
from your inventory. Once inserted, you 
can synthesize as many items as the 
board's limit will allow. When the set 
number of uses has been reached, the 
board will disappear. You can view the 
number of remaining uses once you have 
inserted the board. 

==Board slots==

The board's slots are labeled with the 
type and number of materials required. 
The numbers (such as [1/2]) on the right 
show the number of the materials in your 
storage on the left, and the number of 
materials required to complete the 
synthesis on the right. 

==[???] slots==

Some weapon and armor boards have 
slots labeled with [???]. 
When you select the [???] slot, you will 
see a list of items you have in storage 
that can potentially be used to fill the slot. 
The item you choose will affect the 
success rate, as well as the elemental 
attribute, of the final product. There is also 
a chance of getting a completely different 
final product. 

==Synthesizing consumable items==

Consumable items, such as healing items, 
can be synthesized in batches. If you have 
the necessary materials in storage, you 
can simply select the number of items 
you want to synthesize. You cannot, 
however, synthesize more than the board's 
limit. 

==Material items==

When you find materials, put them in your 
storage so you can use them for synthesis. 
(Materials must be placed in storage, not 
your inventory, to be used.) 

==Types of materials==

===Photon===

A type of material that determines the 
elemental attribute of striking weapons 
and armor. Ranged weapons and 
TECHNIC weapons also require specific 
photons for synthesis. 

===Metal===

A type of material used to synthesize 
weapons. The metal required varies 
depending on the type of weapon and 
★ rating. 

===Ore===

A type of material used to synthesize 
weapons and armor. The ore required 
varies depending on the item's 
★ rating. 

===Wood===

A type of material used to synthesize 
weapons. The wood required varies 
depending on the item's ★ rating and 
manufacturer. 

===Hard material===

Often used to synthesize armor. The 
particle cluster required varies depending 
on the armor's ★ rating and manufacturer. 

===Chemical===

Often used to synthesize health recovery 
items, food, and other consumables. 

===Food===

Often used to synthesize health recovery 
items, food, and other consumables. 

===Chips===

A type of material needed to synthesize 
grinders, which are in turn used to 
upgrade weapons. 

===Gemstones===

A type of material needed to synthesize 
high-grade weapons. There are boards 
that can be used to synthesize these 
high elementals. 

===Biomaterial===

A type of material that is used to 
synthesize special, unusual items, 
such as a part of a creature's body, 
or a mysterious substance. 

==Giving items==

When you give items to your partner 
machine, its parameters change 
depending on the item given. These 
parameters affect its synthesis abilities 
and can change success rates, as well as 
the type of item it is best at synthesizing.
