Your 2* 40 dura seems doesn't have any durability gaining moves (Manipulation/Master Mend/Waste Not/etc), or maybe I'm missing something here? :?

That's because it's a rotation he pinched from another thread ;)

It's actually for 80 dura 2 star, he has the craftsmanship required wrong and the CP could be 3 lower is the last steady hand was 1 and not 2.

Sorry about that, just a typo that led to me putting the rotation in the wrong place.


Also, I've gone ahead and cleaned up the thread to include all the rotations in the first post. Sorry! I didn't realize that you can bypass the character limit by editing the post.

I have also referenced all original posts and their authors for their rotation contributions. I will continue to update the thread with new and better rotations.

Requirements:
- If you want 100% every time (this includes two star) you will need fully melded gear plus your Artisan Tool:
-- 392 Craftsmanship, 375 Control, 381 CP which means:
-- +36 CP to your 345 base. This could be either a HQ Bouillabaisse or +3 CP on your Off Hand and a HQ Fish Soup. See above.

01 - Comfort Zone
02 - Inner Quiet
03 - Steady Hand II
04 - Basic Touch
05 - Basic Touch
06 - Manipulation
07 - Basic Touch
08 - Basic Touch
10 - Great Strides
11 - Steady Hand *
12 - Ingenuity II
13 - Standard Touch
14 - Great Strides **
15 - Innovation
16 - Byregot's Blessing
17 - Careful Synthesis II

09 is missing :) It goes from 08 to 10

Thanks for a great thread.

Why is there such an early Careful Synthesis II on the 1-star 80dur rotation? Can that not be placed at the end with the rest? What's the reason behind this?

It's actually a 2 star rotation and it makes no difference if it's early on or at the end.

Okay I figured so, but can't be too sure anymore with so much theorycrafting going around! I want to put it at the end so I can lazily and mindlessly still use this rotation for lower level 80dur items, without the early Careful Synthesis II finishing off the craft! Thanks scarebearz!

Probably a decent change then, it's already fine for 1 star, but I don't do much lower lvl crafts and when I do it's very fast to HQ them manually using much less skills. (GS-AT, GS-Inno-AT, GS-Byregots etc)

Hi great post,

There are a few pointers that would be nice for people that are working for their 1st master book so without an artisan tool or hat.

- 1 star 40 dur (no artisan tool or hat but fully melded except off hand) you got it covered :)
- 2 star 40 dur (no artisan tool or hat but fully melded except off hand & HQ materials) I used the 1 star 40 dur but used Hasty touch so could throw 2 manipulations but there is RNG factor and I have to finish with 2 careful synthesis II. Not 100% but did the trick - EDIT : should have searched better will try this for next master :) link rotation pre artisan tool 2 star recipes
- 2 star 80 dur (no artisan tool or hat but fully melded & HQ material) i will use this post link rotation to get your artisan tool by "SeleneVenizelos"

This is helpful
