Mythril armor as a component for Grand Armor, not Mythril Armlet..
===============================================================================
2] INTRODUCTION ==============================================================
===============================================================================
(the bread and butter)
Hi there fellow Final Fantasy Fanatics!(yeah, that sounded good!) Welcome
to my first FAQ that dosen't involve Cheat Codes. I wrote this FAQ because I
noticed that there was no other FAQ that detailed what you need to have in
order to be able make all the items in the synthesis shops. If you don't know
what I mean by synth shops, you probably shouldn't be reading this guide.
Now the point of this guide is simple; It's to make it easy to synth items
and still be able to have one of each, without needlessly buying lots of extra
items that you don't need and will never use. This FAQ is mostly made from my
own desire to have all the items without spending forever fighting random
battles to raise Gil. Hope you find this info as useful as I did.
===============================================================================
3] MINIMUM REQUIRED ITEMS =====================================================
===============================================================================
(the main course)
In this section you'll find the minimum requirements to have every equipment
that is made from common* items, in the follwing quantities:
3A] One of Each
one of each equipment you can synth from common items.
3B] One at a Time
enough to equip an active party(the four who fight that CAN equip it).
3C] One for All
enough to equip it on every character at once(that CAN equip it).
Keep in mind that my lists do NOT take into account during what time you have
to buy the items, so my advice is to buy the required amount as soon as you
can. Perhaps at a later date I will break it down by shop/town/disc.
BE VERY AWARE that these list only include items that you need more than one
of. The quantities listed INCLUDE an extra, so you still have an original
un-synthed item. For example, The quantity for Dagger is 2, because you need
one dagger to synth into a Butterfly Sword, and that leaves you one Dagger to
keep in your inventory.
*either bought or easily found(and not rare or limited)

3A] One of Each
_______________________________________________________________________________
This section has the minimum requirements listed to have one of every piece
of equipment made from common* items. Keep in mind that I have only listed
items that you need more than one of.
THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE ITEMS YOU FIND.
So if you never find any of the synthed items as treasure, this is what you
will need to get. The only included items are ones you can PURCHASE at a store,
so I will not include items that can only be found or stolen(or are very rare).
*either bought or easily found(and not rare or limited)
NOTE: Numbers in parentheses are synthed from items you have bought, and those
items are there only as a reference point.
