Macros I adapted to make Neo-ishgardian materials and gear no longer work.
They were written for non specialist, won't even complete as specialist.
I haven't made any high end crafts since the Neo-ishgardian market crashed. Did I miss a nerf somewhere?
Any ideas?
What is the rotation you're using for the macros? Would have to see that before we could say what is going wrong.
Actually the question isn't why aren't these macros working. Its why do macros that used to work fail now? But thanks.
Same gear, same food. Neither fills nor completes. Yet I am wearing gear I made with these same macros.
Did I miss something somewhere?
Yes, I will have to build new ones, I know that but this just bugs the **** out of me.
Well, nothing has changed with how abilities work, so the first step would be looking at your macros to see if somewhere something is wrong. Next step would be double checking gear to make sure nothing is broken/unequipped/changed, etc. If you're not gonna provide info we can't help you.
It would help if you can post the macros here, Shady, so we can analyze.
Unless you post said macros there’s not much we can look at. You can also check out the simulator at ffxivteamcraft, it’s pretty accurate and I’ve been using it since 5.1. Plug in your stats, select a piece of gear and you can import your macro to check out if it’s completing early, not filling the progress bar and thus breaking or something else. As long as you’re not using any rng based skills it might be a rotation issue if it’s not completing.
Thanks again all, I just wanted to be sure I didn't miss a stealth readjustment.
As to the macros themselves, I will have to build new ones. The old ones are tuned to a farethewell but, as I mentioned, neither fill nor complete any more.
P. S. I </3 the simulators. I <3 practice materials. I used to blow up actual materials tuning my macros, that's how much I </3 the simulators.

Well darnit, I just fumbled the finishing part away.... /headdesk
It opened with innovation.... I had enough CPs left to try 3 observe - focused synthesis and it STILL wouldn't complete.
Craft 2554, Cont 2434, 541 CPs before HQ BB.
Yeah, just looking at the 3* macro, it definitely doesn't get you the quality you need. Observe+Focused Synth x3 plus a Careful Synth will still finish it, though. You seem to have a large amount of CP left over though (88CP), so much that the blood bouillabaisse isn't even needed. This seems to suggest you had more moves in there at some point.
Without changing any stats or messing with the rotation that much, you can make that rotation 100% by adding an additional two Prudent Touches after your basic touch, and then using Veneration after Byregot's Blessing. (assuming that what you are doing manually after the macro ends is Innovation+Byregot's Blessing and three focus combos)
EDIT: Since you are doing more steps after the macro finishes, I thought maybe that is where you are going wrong and it isn't the macro itself, so I tried to make a rotation that works without changing the macro itself at all and still doing more or less what it seems you are doing after the macro ends. So, after the macro as you have it now ends, if you do: Innovation>Prudent Touch>Great Strides>Byregot's Blessing>Veneration>Observe+Focus Synth x2>Basic Synth, that will also complete the synth 100%.
