    How to HQ radiant astral eye?

    Ok, managed to get the +1 astral rocks, but since the aqueous isn't +1 as far as I know, the max it start is 333 quality. Any tips of skills and gear to get hq on that?

    The same way you HQ any other synth :x
    Just use abilities that increase you quality gain and the like~

    Did the same way and didn't work. 0/1. Maybe it was bad luck. Any other tips on certain set of skills for this item at 333 quality is appreciated

    usually abilities such as byregot's blessing (CRP 45) and Magnum Opus (CUL 45) Should give some of the most dramatic increases in quality.
    Though if you've been HQing other items with no problems then this shouldn't be too different regardless of starting at 333 quality or 500

    I use Byregot's Blessing @ first Rainbow glow to combo with Magnum Opus. While Byregot's is still up, I'll use heart and soul(or whichever +125% you have.) Master's mend for +30 durability back, and finally By the Book to complete the synth.
    I usually use 1 to 3 standard(depending on fails) and the rest are careful.

    I'll be amazed if your Magnum Opus combo actually give you decent quality on this recipe.

    Thanks. Gonna try that. But one question. I though that of you use one skill like byregot, then use another one , the byregot would vanish and give place to the next skill?! Can you combo now?

    Another thing. You guys using standard with byregot or careful?

    Noir: Abilities which last three turns can stack with abilities which last one (Byregot's Blessing is 3 turns of +100% Q and Magnum Opus is 1 turn of +150% Q). However, a 3-turn will overwrite a 3-turn and a 1-turn will overwrite a 1-turn.

    Also it is most likely Careful they use because of the base Q gain but I cannot say it for sure

    I actually tend to use greater calling instead of by the book 3 rapids will give more progress than 30% unless you are unstable, then its about the same, that way you don't need to worry about the standards generally.
