Caimie's High Fidelity 1 Star 35 Durab Rotation (Specialist Recipe)

[PROBOUND]

I have my GSM is at desyn level 179.90, and yet my desyn of i170 gear is only 59%. I can safely assume that when I reach level 180, it'd be 60%. Tinker's Calm adds 10% and Bacon Broth adds 2.5%. The highest one can achieve is only 72.5%. That's not very high imo. Quite a bit of risk to desyn i170.

True, but your forgetting that each meld adds 5%. So with a pentameld with cheap trash materia you would get much higher results with that extra 25% boost.

Oh, right!! I did forget about it! 72.5 + 25 = 97.5%. Now that'd be worth it.

Afaik, the sky pirates set can yield tier V materias. Won't be of much use to me, I'm still too far from these stats >.<

We have still yet to see proof of this. Do you have a source or screenshot? Not that i dont believe you but a picture is worth a thousand words.

I have updated the original post with a new Low CP/ Low Craftsmanship rotation that utilizes MaMa+FS to accommodate crafters without the high stats.

I have also included the "Brand-Name" rotation in the original post as well now.

So there are a total of 3 different rotation blue prints there with multiple variants of them.

I can personally confirm this to be true as I've so far bonded 13 Sky Pirates pieces and obtained 4 TV materia. Unfortunately, I do not have a screenshot of the conversions but I do have proof that gear as low as the i160 Chestpieces can convert into TV materia:

I can now test the rotation. HUGE thanks.

Thanks sollux for the confirmation about skypirate stuff !
Did finish 3 pieces and got only T4 materia (but good one)

I will work hard to make more of them (and i don't even have to HQ them thanks to the diadem)

....

Like cgb said super thx for the low rotation!
Those stat are quite reachable even with low gear

You guys are welcomed. Please don't forget to use 1 or 2 HQ mats since the rotations can only provide up to 6K-ish quality. One precise touch would bring it close to 7K though. So 1 HQ mat + 1 Precise touch will almost be 100%.

Alternatively, take some possible Tricks along the way, and buff up the last touch into a Standard or Advanced Touch before the Byregot.

I've been using the original version of the rotation myself, and it's extremely consistent... Maybe I don't get 100% HQ rate every time, but pretty much everything just goes HQ in the end, and not a single step fails, which made me really happy. I hate Hasty fails.

Noted !

I did saw that in your third pic
Having half comp HQ would't hurt.

Plus it's quite easy to gather them HQ (I have one hq for one nq ptérodactyle rate right now)

Plus... More then 70% HQ rate is more than enough XD
When I remember the old 3/4star craft where you sometime fail and have around 20% quality... But still manage to HQ
I think that more than 70% is good xP
(Plus i've always been far too lucky in craft)
