Useless for most/Assistance appreciated with Astral oil Macro(2 buttons/all nq mats)

Anyone know how to improve this macro to 100%(unless a poor procs) & keep on 2 buttons?

I'm working with 853 craftsmanship/869 control/472 CP with hq seafood stew (no melding slots left & not an alchemist specialist)

/ac"Muscle Memory"<wait.3>
/ac"Comfort Zone"<wait.2>
/ac"Inner Quiet"<wait.2>
/ac"Steady Hand II"<wait.2>
/ac"Precise Touch"
/ac"Basic Touch"<wait.3>
/ac"Precise Touch"
/ac"Basic Touch"<wait.3>

/ac"Careful Synthesis II"<wait.3>
/ac"Careful Synthesis II"<wait.3>
/ac"Careful Synthesis II"<wait.3>
/ac"Careful Synthesis II"<wait.3>

It is an Astral oil 2 button macro (All NQ mats/always HQ unless a poor procs) if you have:
Stat requirements: 785 craftsmanship/912 control/466 CP

Base stat requirements
hq seafood stew: 785 Craftsmanship/881 Control/416 CP

Very unlikely someone will have these stats but possible.

Sorry for those that aren't on ragnarok, but if someone improves this macro so it can 100% hq with 853 craftsmanship/869 control/472 CP(with hq seafood stew) while:

- using all nq mats
- it's on 2 buttons
- procs(poor/good/excellent) aren't taken into consideration

I'll reward you or someone else on ragnorok with 1M gil for your effort/time

I think this is what you are looking for. Obviously adjust the Name/Brand for your desired class.

Perfect, just what I'm looking for. I appreciate your help KaldorN, If you have a character on Ragnarok or know someone else on Ragnorok that would like 1M gil then just say & I'll give it to them.

Would you like me to update the original post with this macro? I'll give you full credit to the macro of course.

I'm on Lamia, so don't sweat it. I didn't come up with that macro myself, but I don't recall where I found it. I just like for people to be aware of better options, especially as the maximum thresholds of our gear increases. I'm always on the lookout, myself, for ways to improve my own macros, either though increased quality or decreased time.

Here's an "improvement" on Kaldor's macro. It gets rid of the Poor condition BB. Drawbacks are it gives slightly less quality if you get zero goods, and it takes 30 lines to you can't do a <se> after the first macro ends:

/ac "Comfort Zone" <me> <wait.2>
/ac "Inner Quiet" <me> <wait.2>

/ac "Ingenuity II" <me> <wait.2>

/ac "Innovation" <me> <wait.2>
/ac "Byregot's Blessing" <me> <wait.3>
/ac "Careful Synthesis II" <me> <wait.3>

You sir....you....I see you....i am using this, and i have tested this....and ily....that is all!

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...rted-Sequences

also at upper 800s crafts you can use that seafood stew, drop the first ING2 to ING, and bump that last basic up to standard. and if you're manual crafting, take the second SH2 a step earlier. will keep you from using SH2 on good conditions.

and StouterTaru, neat use of brow.

it is for sequences like this that i never compromise on melded CP (or buy red scrip tools).

somewhat off topic but..

i've been dissatisfied with my efforts to make a good sequence to craft 35 Durability 1-Star mats like pterodactyl leathers. here is best i've come up with.

anyone have suggestions for improvement, a different approach ? no hasty please.

........fraudulent.............. you can't anticipate either precise touch usage nor poor conditions. At best you could have inserted a break b4 BB to check for conditions

Edit:

As the latter posts indicated I have been corrected, the marco DOES WORK! So I am WRONG!

Now on the critique of the macro....if you get no good/excellent condition its worst than the original...then why would u gamble on it? the original offers 100% hq (except for the case of poor BB...a real improvement would be to implement your if else statement on just that portion of the original)

It skips to the next line if it is unable to use pt or brow.

Look at the macro:

Quote:

/ac "Byregot's Brow" <me>
/ac "Innovation" <me> <wait.2>
/ac "Byregot's Blessing" <me> <wait.3>

Brow will only execute on a Good/Excellent condition, that's how Brow works.

Otherwise it fails and you use Innovation, then Blessing.

A poor can't happen during either Byregot's Brow or Byregot's Blessing.

Byregot's Brow won't activate unless a good/excellent proc happens so can never activate on a poor.

A poor can only appear after an excellent condition. Due to this Byregot's Blessing can never activate on a poor condition as Byregot's Brow would have activated on the excellent beforehand stopping the poor condition ever procing.

It's setup like an if then statement. The macro checks for a good and tries to use precise. If no good, the skill is grayed out and uses basic instead. Same at the end. Great strides. Check for good/excellent with b brow if not it's gray. If it is a good it takes the multiplier of good instead of innovation and without inner quiet stacks you can't b blessing which leads to a pause then careful synth. If not innovation is cast then b blessing then careful synth. Simple stuff

that first 1 star macro is OP!! good work; really really good work; before hand I had a hi hq yield 1 star macro; but this is 100% ftw!!!!

Here's one dropping the Innovation and CSII for an extra Basic touch. It's basically the same, with one more step having a shot at a precise:
