New crafting rotations

[Mayoyama]

I started HW with lucis for all crafts and fully melded artisans and found myself able to basically use the same rotations I have always used.

40/35 durability I used a lucis hand in rotation, just making sure to keep in mind how much progress I got from a synthesis (alternating between rapid>CS2 and CS2>CS2 depending on the synth). WARNING: CP heavy

Basically it goes CZ, IQ, SH2 3x hasty, master mend.... repeat, making sure to tricks every good/excellent proc, and refreshing CZ once after the first CZ wears off. This has never failed me in being able to HQ (short of RNG being a cow and failing all my hasty)
When you hit around 100CP left, do a BB finisher. I did tend to do the rapid at the beginning if I needed one to ensure it wouldn't blow up in my face at the end.

70 durability I have used the 4* rotation (no WN/WN2) with a modified start depending again on how much progress was needed vs amount gained. I found usually either rapid>rapid>CS2 or rapid>CS2>CS2 was sufficient. I've stopped using PbP for everything except lv60 1* furnishings as I usually get the same amount from a rapid, without the CP cost.

Biggest piece of advice I can give regarding progress and not ending up short (if you are really unsure and not comfortable/confident in winging it): have reclaim set and do a rapid and note down how much progress it gives, then do a CS2 and note down that value. Reclaim and blow the item up. Now, knowing how much progress you get, you can figure out (mathematically) how many progress steps you need to make items of that level. You may also wish to note down the values given with Ing2+rapid/CS2 if you are really short on craftsmanship (in which case, you may want to look at upgrading your gear some to make it easier on yourself)

OR.. just leave an extra step at the end in case your CS2 doesn't quite finish.
