Master Crafts

After beating my head against a wall for 2 hours, running simulations, and praying to the RNG gods,

These 3 star crafts are a massive pain to HQ.

And yes, this is a not-so-subtle showoff thread, but let's post other master crafts here so people can see how they look.

Nice, where can I get the mats for this? How many CP do I need to make a HQ robe?
I'm a healer myself and lv. 50 weaver but I've never done any 1 or 2 star crafts.

I'm gonna be making my worlds 1st ever 1 tomorrow morning :) should be fun lol

this robe got sold (only 1 so far) on Gilgamesh for 1M lol - any sold on other servers?

None even posted on Siren yet, was kind of surprised as I know there are at least a few crafters on the server who probably have the resources to get there fairly quickly.

Did this actually make your pants disappear, or did you take them off because they'd be distracting? =X

Clerics Culottes does that. ._.

yeah our crafter in the fc - managed to penta meld one of those suckers. ;D
haha nvm i edit because he made his own forum lol

Care to share and save the rest of us hours of beating against a wall?

So after some practice on the mats, I recommend starting with at least 1k quality worth of HQ mats and using (HQ) Bouillabaisse. Still refining rotations because it uses unhealthy amounts of hasty touch, but the key skills you'll want are Comfort Zone, Piece by Piece, Ingenuity II, and maybe Waste Not (II) (and Byregot's too but that should be a duh by this level).

Turns out that the skirt is the same model as culottes, so that's exactly how the top and pants look together.

Hi there, I believe I am the first master alchemists in Aegis server here since I m the first person start selling them on market. However, despite I made HQ version on first day. My rate is only roughly 15%. .all start with NQ mat tho because they are from rowena.

So I want to know if you start with all nq how much quality you usually get. And what skill do you use?

Damn lol!
If only u were on the adamantoise server i would run to u to make me a spring dress NQ as vanity doesn't care about quality.
I'd provide the mats and even tip u lol.
But the weavers here are having a bit trouble with gearing up and crafting the new stuff for the requirements to advance further as the prices for materials have fluctuated Xp.
Been saving up gil ever since the new vanity stuff were announced Xo

If you're talking about the Terminus Putty, yes, that one is a pain because there is no way to start with HQ mats. I average about 20% on that, best so far has been 90% with a lot of luck on good/excellent conditions. My record on putty is 2HQ/4NQ. Again, skills are something I'm still playing around with and I won't pretend to be an expert on theorycrafting rotations.

I'm sure there's someone out there who has it unlocked. Have you tried shouting in cities/Rev's Toll?

I had a go without the new tool and hit 75% on saurian gloves of aiming, only making std quality. I'm the only one on my world making these though, and I'll have my tool today for leatherworker so that will help a lot more.
Can you inbox people on this forum? I'm sure if we compare notes we can come up with a good method for HQ

Okay thanks Lyriin, those are the skills I was thinking would be involved, but are you getting lucky with HQ on things like cloth/putty or are the twinthreads and such enough to build to 1k quality?

Nnnnnnnnnnnngh. I really, really, really wish I'd looked at this thread before I just lost 4 dress materials. Bah, it's only gil. :/

Thank you so much, do you use Basic or Hasty more? I'll get working on these and try to figure out how to refine if possible.

*Edit: Ooops didn't see the portion on hasty/basic depending on ToT

Depends on how many Goods pop up, but on average, I've been using just 2 or 3 hasty touches and the rest in basic.

How difficult would you think making the master foods be? On the same level or slightly easier?

Should be about the same. Not sure how difficult it is to obtain HQ ingredients since I think some of them are the new fish or 2 star BTN mats.

At least for the 2 star master recipe, gathering the mats is cake, especially as HQ. Only thing is I need quite a few for the new tool/hat (plus remelding my CUL set but that's besides the point)

Also looking at the new tank food, Popoto Pancakes (3 star) Seems to be the easiest, 5 of the 6 mats are simple mats to gather, but Dalamud Popoto are NQ only and cost 100 Myth 10 per

Thanks, also are you able to keep SH or SH2 up for the touches? It looks like it would fall off a few times with what you posted.

Naturally. I just left it out because I figured it was a given and I didn't want to type it out completely. >>

But yes, SH2 should always be up if you're planning on doing another touch and there should be enough steps to use comfort zone twice.

Okies, just want to make sure^^

thats actualy pretty close to my method, but however i havnt got the new tool, so thats likely where i went wrong, will let you know how i do after i get the tool sorted out :)

Okies last question, I run 380 CP will missing the 8 make a major impact or can I get away with 380? Have stats the exact same as you other than CP

Shouldn't matter, worst case scenario you use one more hasty touch instead of basic to make up for the difference. Again, it's a priority system that depends on ToT procs so there's no strict CP requirement like the 100% rotations do. If/when someone does come out with a 100% rotation, then you'll need the exact amount of CP.

Okies, that is what I was thinking Lyrinn but wanted to make sure. Thank you again for sharing your trials instead of hoarding them to yourself^^

Edit: Just tried this, messed up rotation on one of the cashmere cloths so only had 1 HQ, but finished the robe with 94% HQ and it HQ'd for me. I did my byregots on an excellent, but it was before I could get GS or Ingenuity II up.

Ok, just wanted to say thank you Lyrinn, With that rotation and hq mats, i've hq'd both a Heavy Wolfram Cuirass and a Cashmere skirt of Healing.. very happy.

I finished BSM/ARM/ALC 2 days ago, LTH yesterday. 30hours playing time. 4mio gil invested. Made 20 3-stars so far with 19HQ and 1NQ
I will finish WVR today and GSM tomorrow. Let's rock!!!
