FYI: 3 stars aren't easier than Ala Mhigan

[StouterTaru]

yeah thats not how "faster" works

It's faster than spending an extra 60-70 steps HQing the ingredients, so yeah it is.

There's already multiple 35\70 macros even on Day 1. But hey you do you if inefficiency's your thing.

It ultimately comes down to his stats and whether he's able to fit the entirety of the rotation into around 63 steps and achieve HQ from all NQ mats. If he's able to do that with minimum/low stats, then, yeah, he's being far more efficient than if he were to do it using Initial Preparation of Muscle Memory. Not that I'm a fan of it.

Where are you spotting these?

Yes, and they each take at least 15 more steps than my half-fast 35 macro and are 50% HQ at best.

These new 3* items are a lot easier.

An Example

I can 100% HQ these 3* items with all NQ mats. 1525/1642(including seafood stew) are minimum requirements. Tested in game.



Actually impossible to 100% the ala mhigan stuff using all NQ mats (Excluding Maker's Mark):
