This is a temporary enhancement to your skills that improves chances of successful item creation. There are a few NPC's in each guild that will provide this support, but only one gives the advanced synthesis image support (better support for a small price).   Choosing the Day For best results in synthesis, try to synth on the day that is weak to the crystal you are using, such as synthing on Earthsday when using wind crystals. Your chances of a successful result will be noticeably improved. Likewise, synthing on the opposite day of the crystal you are using will have a negative effect and decrease chances of success, though you will have a better chance of making a high quality synth then (better quality item or increased yield). Other factors that may contribute to a HQ synth are the moon phase, your skill level, and the number of times you try the same synth in a row.

If you wish to advance your skill further you must break this cap by visiting your guild to receive a promotion test. This test requires that you bring a requested item to an NPC in the guild and will be available as early as 2 levels before each cap.
