Whether doing it that way is better than getting each crafter's individual af, I haven't a clue but it's possible if you wanted to do that.

It is not. If you want the best you have to go with individual class specific sets for each craft. Other than that the options are Patricians set or a combination of that and a HQ Dodore Doublet. It will be extremely difficult to hit the required craftsmanship and control required to make the highest level recipes with a universal set and it will require forbidden melding.

That is disappointing but at least I have an answer. If it takes 5 meld patricians to get close that isn't exactly easy either. Most of the discusions I've seen require double to triple meld material to get enough for two star recipes. Even having to do it multiple times would probably still be easier than 5 meld patricians.
