Request for Community Reps: Can we have a chart with the 1.19 changes to HQ results?
Hello, adventurers and crafters.
I've just posted a comment on Yellow Gremlin's website (here) about a change I learned the hard way on Steel Ingots.
Crafters know that to make HQ +1/+2/+3 Ingots or Plates they have to use the Secondary Tool. However, after patch 1.19 it seems this changed without any mention.
In fact, I just created a High Yield with Secondary Tool for both Steel Ingots and Steel Plates:

So my request to the Community Reps here is: Could we have an official chart with all the changes to HQ results after patch 1.19?
I think it'd be fair to say at least the Tool that grants High Quality and the one that now grants High Yield, as in the past it was us adventurers who posted on sites like YG comments like: “Secondary Tool makes +1”, and do it all again I think would be very time-consuming for everyone.
Generally, I think having an official crafting chart on The Lodestone, with stats and all, and adding it to the Synthesis Menu on the left, wouldn't be so bad. Yellow Gremlin is out of date and I'm using the nice Mooglebox website, recently discovered, to search for items, but it doesn't list HQ/HY results.
I don't remember any mention or warning from the dev team or in the patch notes about these changes to HQ results, but if I missed them I apologize.
If there really wasn't any warning, then I hope the community reps will hear me, as in patch 1.20 should arrive the feature that ensures a HQ result if you use all HQ materials (according to a previous Yoshi-P's post), a feature I'm really waiting for, and since it takes a lot to gather them (at least for the time I spend in Eorzea), warning about these new changes to High Quality/High Yield would be very appreciated.
Thanks, in case!

Do you mean all new recipes apply this formula? Is there an official statement or could someone else confirm this? Considering in the past we had to test by ourselves which tool was for, be it High Quality or High Yield, this would be a pretty important change, in my opinion, and I don't remember reading about it in the patch notes or elsewhere.
In this case it would be Great news, if this is the formula for all new recipes' HQ (Main Hand = All HQ; Off Hand = All HY), but a confirmation would be appreciated. :)
