Calculating Progress & Quality Gains

TL/DR: Is this possible? Does anybody have the math? Figure out how much 100% Efficiency gives you in Progress based on Craftsmanship, Control, & Synthesis level?

I posted his in a different thread, that was not really about what I was looking for, and the thread died, so I think m post was just lost. Thought I'd make a new thread.

I don't want a widget or something, I was hoping to forward-calculate how much craftsmanship / control / CP I need to Macro certain synths. I know I need to get CRP to 50 for Byregots Blessing. As I don't have tonnes of gil floating around, I want to optimize my melds while I'm levelling, and make sure I meld only the materia I really need to start doing Darksteel Wire w/ Macro, and spend the rest of my gil on levelling CRP faster so I can start doing those Synths.

Does anybody know the formula used to calculate Progress/Quality based on stats and ilevel?

I am being a bit of a minimalist trying to get my foot in the door for crafting. I'm not even interested in taking over markets, just trying to get to a point where I can cover all of my own needs as far as BSM / ARM / GSM is concerned.

Hmm.

Thanks for linking that. . . It doesn't look like it is quite what I'm looking for, but I think I can get my answers from it. Certainly, whoever wrote that knows the math I'm looking for.

Without running experimentation, I was hoping somebody could provide the formulas and I could # crunch myself by changing up various things. That site looks like a next-best-thing though, so thank you.

Progress:
Progress = round ( (1 + 0.05 * recipe level difference) * (0.21 * Craftsmanship + 1.6) )

For every level a recipe is above you, up to 5 above, you take a 10% penalty to progress.
For every level a recipe is below you, up to 5 below, you gain a 5% bonus to progress.
For every addition level greater than 5 level below you, you gain another 2-2.5% (needs refinement) bonus to progress, until 15 levels below you.
After 15 levels, it continues to gradually increase until around 55% bonus


Quality formula:
Quality = round ( (1 - 0.05 * recipe level difference) * (0.36 * Control + 34) )
Level difference is only a quality penalty for recipes above your level, never a bonus for recipes below your level.

Taken from a different forum.

Thanks Summer Rider! Exactly what I was looking for. The mat doesn't seem quite to work out with m results mind you, but maybe I typed the formula in wrong. Been busy today so I'll have to revisit when I have time.

Either way, THANKS!
