Crafting cross classes

Yeah, I was looking into that as well. But doing so I lose a "Good" shot, don't I? Is it worth it?

Yes. The more CP you restore, the more Durability you can restore/not lose (Master's Mend, Manipulation, Waste Not, etc.). Which means more shots at Hasty Touch.

If you reach a point where you know Tricks of the Trade won't bring in enough CP to restore/save Durability, and you don't need the CP you've got for anything else, you can use a Touch on a Good to push for one last bit of Quality. Edit: Or if your CP is already full. Until you reach that point, Tricks is better than a Touch.

Think of all the times you've had a Good condition but you either couldn't do a Touch right then or it wasn't convenient to do a Touch right then. Now think if every one of those times you could've just had 20 CPs instead.
