Umm... he was talking about synthing... but yeah, grinding's a pain! I must've broke at least 12 weapons trying to get about 8 C rank weapons to the 6th grind when I had level 3 luck. XD Darn you Sega!
But yeah... general rule of thumb... using better materials won't get you a better weapon overall, it'll just make sure you get the weapon the board is made for. Using Kubara Wood at any point will produce a Kubara product... which always have lower stats and success rates, but much like Namillus said... grind that sucker a few times and its stats go up like there's no tomorrow... but due to how much I hate grinding... I tend to avoid them. XD
I tend to always just buy stuff from Player Shops now though, because I don't like synthing when the rates are so low. They better allow a PM to go above level 100... cause it's a real pain trying to synth anything higher than a 4-star weapon.
