    This^.

    here's a linke to a hread, a few pages back.

    keep in mind, you are going to want to watch out for 2* 40 Durability snths, and 2* 80 Durability Synths.

    Personally, I've found there are "one-touch" macro's buried in these forums, and I use those. Or slightly modified versions of them. They are meant for a nearly 100% HQ Rate with the fewest clicks possible. The ones for 1*, and 2* synths are all possible to HQ with one or two clicks. the 3* I don't think are there yet. Maybe for people with Luci's and full melds. Hell, maybe that's what i should have been planning for while melding my gear. I'll take that into consideration before melding my other artisan tools. And if I have to craft a new Artisan bodyfor ruining the melds, it won't be the end of the world for me.

    The thought just occurred to me yesterday that Mutamix or someone around there can remove all materia from an item. I have never needed that service before, but the thought occurred to me that if anyone ever wanted to redo their melds on these new artisan pieces, that is available.

    I figured since this talks about 3 star rotations I could post here rather than make another thread. Sorry to break in but I'm having a lot of trouble with getting the 3 star items needed for my book 2.

    I have 418 Craftmanship / 408 Control and 443 CP w/o food.

    I can get about 9 - 11 stacks no problem but when I go through the great strides and blessing combo, I can't seem to get past 15%, I lucked out and got a HQ off of one that I only got 8%.

    I was watching my condition, it was on Normal..can someone help me on what I'm missing? I'm not looking for 100% rotation, I'm looking for a bit of advice and some rotation tips that might not be so obvious from the other pages I've gone to.

    443cp without food.?????? I wish I had that.

    as for those items, well if you ever get past 50-60% its pure luck and not many people make to the whole 100%

    from my experience and the people ive talked to getting between 25-35% was the norm for those turn in items.

    It is definitely possible to do better. There have been some good threads about this. I recommend browsing through the forums.

    I try, usually get told I should be hitting around 50% - 80% and then linked to a rotation thread. Which I don't mind, gives me new ideas on rotations but my rotation isn't that bad. For some reason when I go through the blessing combo I can't hit past 15% on a good day using HQ items. Bouncing from Reddit and Lodestone so I'm sure I might of missed a nugget of golden advice. Just a matter of taking time to sort through and remembering where i've been.

    More what I'm aiming for, so i'm not doing it on Poor but I will do it on Normal or greater. Most of the time on normal. I guess i'll look up and ask ways of how to help "wait" while crafting hoping that a good or excellent condition comes up. I'm still rather new to crafting so this is my first craft for Book 2. Thank you.
