I concur with Rosa, first CP, then craftman and finally control. Pentamelding is really a chore, but I'm sure there should be some minimum-stat meldings on Aryala to give you an idea. For the former crafting gear, there were melds only using three slots, so we should have the same thing for the onishi.

Isn't it 40% recovery chance for grade VI ? At least it is for combat materias.

I was posting that from memory, and it seems i got the percent wrong. Youre right that its 40, rather then 20. Ill edit the original post to avoid any(more) confusion.

The legs and feet both take 8CPs to cap. In those peices a cunning VI makes a lot of sense. I also used a cunning VI in the earrings.
