[Luminius]

Well after 45mins i got my first Lucis

[SubZero_DeZigns]

Here's my rotation that worked pretty good for me with maxed out gear.

Supra for main tool
iLv70 for offhand

Stats:
Craftsmanship: 356 - FC action Craftsmanship +10
Control: 404
CP: 352 - HQ Fish soup +33
466/404/385

I used 4 buttons for this setup.

Step 1
Title: 40D ***S1(382)
/ac "Comfort Zone" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Inner Quiet" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Steady Hand II" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Rapid Synthesis" <me><wait.3>
/echo >> Step 1 Finished <se.2>

Note: If Rapid Synthesis fails go straight to NQ

Step 2
Title: 40D ***S2(382)
/ac "Waste Not" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Manipulation" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Steady Hand II" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Waste Not" <me><wait.2>
/echo >> Step 2 Finished <se.2>

Step 3
Title: 40D ***S3(382)
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Hasty Touch" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Steady Hand" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Great Strides" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Innovation" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Ingenuity II" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Byregot's Blessing" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Careful Synthesis II" <me><wait.3>
/echo >> @ Synth Complete <se.6>

NQ
Title: 3*Token Waste
/ac "Ingenuity II" <me><wait.2>
/ac "Careful Synthesis II" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Careful Synthesis II" <me><wait.3>
/ac "Careful Synthesis II" <me><wait.3>

Now if you need more Synthesis you could take out a Hasty Touch for a Careful Synthesis
This rotation isn't the best but suited me ok. I did fail alot. Considering the mats were replaced upon NQ turn in, it didn't bother me much.

Good Luck!

Personally I discourage the use of Waste Not. It prevents you from using your ToT procs and if you use your ToT proc with WN up, your dura calculations get screwed.

My first Lucis tool run I got 20HQ with 6NQ (traded it back for the mats). The % is actually quite forgiving compared to the 4* turn ins. Crappy % like 50-60% still yields you a HQ turn in frequently. Took me like a hour total, in between waiting for queue for WoD to make one Lucis.

ToT procs and Manipulation is your friend here.

Hi Rui,

Can you share your rotation? Thanks!

Hi Rui,

Can you share your rotation? Thanks!

It's pretty standard stuff

CZ
IQ
IG2
CS2
CS2
HT

The rest is just HT until 10 dura, Manip => SH2 => HT again (remember if you are going to Manip at 10 dura you must follow it up with something else like CZ/SH2/ToT before using a touch, or it WILL break. Usually your SH2 burns in a way where it is just nice to refresh SH2 right after Manip).

CZ will be refreshed at least once, if good ToT proc chances you could probably have enough CP and steps to CZ a third time.

Continue the process until the end when your CP are about to burn out where you should finish it off.

Your ending starts at 20 dura left with enough SH/SH2 stacks (at least 3) for: GS=>Byregot on good/excellent or GS=>Innovation=>Byregot and finish it off with CS2.

The reason why I don't post "standard rotations" stuff for crafting is because players need to know the logic behind taking each step, so that you have the foresight to plan ahead how to manip (at 10 or 20 dura) without wasting SH2 stacks/resources or minimize any waste, and how to deal with bad hands. Knowing this is very important to be a successful crafter - too many people blindly follow a rotation without knowing the logic behind it, such as the difference between openers that uses SH2=>PbP=>PbP and PbP=PbP=SH2 etc. These all leads of failures when they are faced with bad RNG.

Thanks Rui. Very helpful!

I agree that it's important to understand the intricacies of the craft itself.

BTW, since you go with a 90% PbP chance, if it fails that early in your rotation, do you just immediately finish off the synth NQ? (Since you can turn it in.) Thanks.
