So everyone uses Rath's rotation, I'm sure.
My problem is that... uh... I'm going to hit low-end 3 star crafting soon but with one issue that does not let me use Rath's Rotation: My LTW and BSM are just 15 and therefore I don't have Waste Not II.
I will try and get my LTW to 50 when I have the time. In the meantime... does anyone have a rotation for 2 star that does not need WNII?
If you're doing leves, ixali's quest and GC turn in you will be 50 in no time
Waste Not II is in the end a duration 'restore', just working differently. You save 40 Dura if it's used right.
So.. you can just go with Master's Mend (or goldsmith's Manipulation) instead, restoring 30 Dura. Be flexible, improvise ^^
It's less efficient / 10 less durability, thus one less hasty touch. Should still work though, even if it takes a little more luck.
I've actually been using it with WN, not WN2. Because of the PbP moves, I'm usually at 50/70 for 2 star (or 40/70 for 3 star) when I come out of Maker's Mark. I'll do two CS2's normally (should only need one with 3 star, because of the Progress added by the third PbP) then SH2->WN->Hastyx4, bringing me down to 10/70.
It may take a bit of finagling depending on the number of Tricks I can take during MaMa, compared to the number of Precise Touches I can take when doing Hasty Touches, but it works well enough.
