Making Militia & AF for the first time

[QuCont]

Hey Val!

You can make HQ AF gear without melded Patricians, using only NQ materials. Use this rotation. It's perfectly doable with either HQ 48 off hand tools or NQ 55 tools.

* Comfort zone
* Inner Quiet
* Steady Hands 2
* Touch x 5 (replace with hasty touch if not enough CP)
* Manipulation
* Steady Hands 1
* Ingenuity 2
* Innovation
* the-next-level-touch-whatever-it's-called
* greater strides
* byregots
* perfect synth x4

You'll need about 350-ish CP. I used HQ fish soup, easy to make with full patricians's set.

Also, skip the head gear. Not necessary.

I recommend starting with Tailor -> Leather -> Goldsmith -> blacksmith.
Tailor, so you can make the AF for all the other jobs.
Leather, so you can make the AF for all the other jobs.
Goldsmith, for the jewellery you'll eventually want.
Blacksmith, for all the offhand tools.

If you're having problems meeting the requirements, just make an NQ55 spinning wheel, that should get you started. Once you have your HQ AF, you can do fine with HQ48 tools. I may have used FC actions, I don't really remember.

Here are some simulator results.


* 295 craft
* 288 control
* 311 CP (+33 from HQ fish soup)
