Macros for Crafting.

Bored of pressing the same 1,2,2,3,2,2,1,1 to craft??
Quick Synthesis only gives 1/2 the exp, we need more.
SO how do we get through this mindless press 1, 2 ,2 ,3 etc etc??

MACROS!!

so here is my set up
/action "Basic Synthesis" <me> (durability 30)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Touch" <me> (durability 20)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Touch" <me> (Durability 10)
/wait 5
/action "Master's Mend" <me> (Durability 40)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Touch" <me> (durability 30)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Touch" <me> (durability 20)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Synthesis" <me> (durability 10) (this one should finish it)
/wait 5
/action "Basic Synthesis" <me> (durability 0, if this one fails, craft fails, but is very unlikely since its a very easy craft to make)

So, i just activate synthesis, then press macro, and done.
I added the durability to better understand.

I recommend for easy crafts to grind on for exp.
Was this info useful? any suggestions ?

Looks good, I would say, especially if you are using or willing to use the +10 CP food, for early levels, or if you are trying to HQ stuff to add in another line right after the first initial basic synthesis.

/action "Steady Hand" <me>

Just sneak that in to make sure your Basic Touches have a 90% chance to hit.

Not saying I see anything wrong with your current macro list, in fact I am adding it to my macros as we speak. Just a suggestion for a second macro used for trying to HQ materials easier.

Thanks for the syntax, I may play about with macroing the basic stuff at some point.
At the moment I am playing the item state game, where I vary when the basic synth is used depending if I get a normal or good.

Crafting macros will hurt you in the long run.

They're extremely nice for crafting large quantities of lower-tier materials you need for your combines, like cotton yarn for weaving. I can set up a macro that gets it to 80-90% HQ chance with 0% failure rate.
