Lvl70 HQ macro(all NQ mats/no RNG skills) - Possible with well melded ironworks gear

[tayler1480]

Sorry, basically a repost of my lvl 69 macro. Same macro however stat requirements for it to work for lvl 70 crafts are slightly higher. Good thing is, you can use this macro for both lvl 70/69 crafts as long as you meet the lvl 70 stat requirements here.

Lvl 70 crafts - Difficulty = 2952/ Quality = 13187/ Durability = 80
No skill RNG rotation
Example where this might be useful: Twinsilk Suspenders

Instead of going to my lvl 69 80 durability macro post I've also added requirements needed to use this macro for lvl 69 80 durability crafts here.

Craftsmanship Required = 1137(70)/1060(69)
Control required = 955(70)/938(69)
CP required = 399
Specialist required: Yes
Food required: No/Maybe

Cross class skills needed

Comfort Zone(Alchemist lvl50) - Only needed if you need comfort zone to meet CP requirements
Steady Hand II(Culinarian lvl37)
Piece by Piece(Armorer lvl50)
Innovation(Goldsmith lvl50)
Ingenuity II(Blacksmith lvl50)

Notes

- This is by no means the easiest/fastest rotation, just a rotation I quickly came up with when trying to make a macro using my old lvl 60 Ironworks gear.
- Condition procs e.g. bad timing on excellent/poor proc could result in not hitting 100%
- 413/427 CP required if not using 1/2 comfort zones respectively
- The CP requirements don’t take into account the chance for CP reduction.
- lvl 60 4* stat requirements were 995 craftsmanship/955 control so craftsmanship requirement is quite high however something cheap like emerald soup should suffice if needed.
- The ingenuity isn't affecting quality unless you're under its level so you can move it after brow if wanted.
- This macro is assuming you're level 70



Easy way to reach these stats:
- Using HQ Emerald Soup
- Buying & using the NQ level 70 crafting head/chest/gloves/waist/pants/boots bought at Kugane (11.9, 12.2) from "Muto <Armorer>" npc.
- Buying & using the NQ level 70 tools at Kugane (12.7, 12.2) from "Shichiho <Tool Supplier>" npc

The above tools/gear will cost you 234,489 gil.

I don't think you can buy any crafting accessories that are higher than level 50 (excluding useless non-meld-able level 60 green accessories). You can even meet CP requirements by crafting or buying the old heavensward accessories listed below in either NQ or HQ & melding them:
- Dragon Fang earrings
- Hallowed Chestnut Necklace
- Hallowed Chestnut Armillae
- 2* Hallowed chestnut ring

The rotation/macro requires 399cp or 384cp if you have the "Stroke of Genius" triat (level 70 class quest)

If using the NQ npc gear & then all the accessories I mentioned above in HQ this will leave you at 359CP.
If using the NQ npc gear & then all the accessories I mentioned above in NQ this will leave you at 339CP.

HQ accessories & have the trait = Meld 25CP
HQ accessories & no trait = Meld 40CP
NQ accessories & triat = Meld 45CP
NQ accessories & no triat = Meld 60CP

In order to get this CP I recommend melding CP+2/CP+3s/Cp+4s which should be reasonably cheap. CP+3s are generally alot cheaper e.g. atm for me they're 20 times cheaper than CP+4s. Meld what's best for you.
Of course you could always get newer accessories etc. Just showing how easy crafting this new stuff is. Something like a maker's mark rotation would allow for a lower stat requirement but lets not go there.
Hope this helps

Thanks

- Renegade241(Dracen Renegade) pointed out that this rotation requires 399cp instead of what I originally posted which was 391.

Thanks for sharing this. For anyone else that tries, I had to change Observe to <wait.3> instead of <wait.2> for it to work.

Thanks for mentioning that, I forgot to change it. Will update the macro/rotation.

i have never felt like a God crafting before. thank you!

Thanks, glad you like the macro. I've recently posted a Level 70 1* macro/rotation as well on reddit & will add it as a separate post on the forums soon. Stat requirements are a lot higher though but that's to be expected with harder crafts.
If I'm correct we should be getting better gear soon, will be class specific in the same way the heavensward ilvl 170 crafting gear was. I'm really close to a lvl 70 15 step rotation alternative & the new gear will allow that to easily be achieved.

Are you sure, that the CP are correct? I tested the macro with 382 CP (+15CP of Lvl 70 trait) and Byregot's Brow couldn't be activated cause there aren't enough CP. Did you maybe only tested it with 405/419 CP? So you wouldn't have the problem with "Confort zone".
It works great with 384CP (+ 15CP of Lvl 70trait). So it would be 399CP instead of 391CP.
Could it also be that you use "Ingenuity" instead of "Ingenuity II"?

Thanks for sharing this and putting something up for the betterment of everyone for collaboration, however I had to stop where you stated Specialist: Yes. If it requires being a specialist that makes a MASSIVE difference whether or not someone can use this/improve on it.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll update the cp requirements to 399.

I do have another lvl 70 macro that requires extra cp but reduces the craftsmanship/control requirements.
I need to figure out the exact stats, I'm not really prioritizing that atm since these requirements are fairly low

The main reason I haven't posted a non-specialist alternative is because I play multiple accounts & so have all specialists. It's possible I might look into a non-specialist alternative in the future but I doubt I will & if I do it'll be based on the new crafting set trying to get a non-specialist lvl 70 15 step macro or something.

That's all fine great and dandy, but for most people, who run one account and are going to be changing Specialists because we only have three of eight classes as Specialists, it is more important to do things without the Specialist than with, because more classes than not lack those stat points and Specialization moves.

Remember, we are limited to one Specialization change per week now. Gone are the days we could amass a number of Souls over a number of weeks then change all those times within the one week.
