Machinist Forging

This is a guide to the Machinist's materials as well as their deconstruct ability. Most items in the game will break down into special material. This is modeled after my weapons/armor list and is contained here for the sake of compressing it. For a list based on the materials, go here. In addition, a list of enemies that drop specific ore is listed below.

Some materials are bought in item shops.

- WIRE: 5G
- BOLT: 15G
- LENS: 25G
- CELL: 35G
- TUBE: 50G
- SPIKE: 75G
- CORE: 1000G

So what about the others? Particularly: where to get the best deals on deconstruction? Well, as I stated in my job thoughts, buying from Onrac is always going to be more expensive (100G for 1 for everything but Silver). They are generally the best option for bulk except for SILVER. For the rest:

CLOTH
- Cheapest: Cloth at 5G/1 in Coneria will always be available.
- Best bulk: Wool Scarf is 200G/2, but if it's not available, just go with Cloth. Everything else is bad.

WOOD:
- Cheapest: Tough one. Wooden Staff at 5G/1 in Coneria or Wooden Nunchuck for 10G/2 are the best value. Wooden Shield is 15G/1 at Pravoka is right behind. You might have lesser options in Coneria depending on your jobs. Worst case: Wooden Armor in Coneria at 50G/1.
- Best bulk: Long Bow in Pravoka and Oak Harp in Crescent Lake are the only reasonable options besides Wooden Nunchuck.

METAL:
- Cheapest: Small Knife at 5G/1 in Coneria. If unavailable, Iron Hammer at 10G/1 always will be.
- Best bulk: Iron Armor is 800G/8 and will always be available.

LEATHR:
- Cheapest: Gloves at 60G/2 in Pravoka.
- Best bulk: The only other things that deconstruct into leather are whips and Buckler, which are too expensive to consider.

SILVER:
- Cheapest: Silver Knife at 800G/4 in Crescent Lake. Otherwise, Silver Hammer is 2500G/10 there.
- Best bulk: The Hammer above is still half as cheap as they are in Onrac.
