Always HQ?

To do this I always use this rule, at 2 ticks left in SH2 I have to decide if I'll have enough CP to activate both Great Strides and Byregot's Blessing, if I do I'll use it, unless I get lucky and rainbow crystal comes out in which case I can max it by simply using Byregot's Blessing while SHII is active. If you don't have enough for both then your focus is simply building quality with Hasty Touch until you have 1 tick left in SHII and use Byregot's Blessing. Either way by this point you should have pushed your quality into the 70+% even if you had several botched rolls with HT. When your durability hits 5-10 depending on how long you had WNII active you should use Careful Synthesis one last time to finish out the craft and your done. Remember that finishing with 0 durability is still a win for you so long as the last action maxed out progress, and for the most part that's about it.

This method does require several other cross class skills but after making the end game items, this has proven to be the most effective for me. Hope it helps!
