Crafting the Ala Mhigan Set

[Caimie_Tsukino]

Hey folks, I kinda skipped out since my last post. Since then I've gotten the Ala Mhigan set, though my CP is still sitting at 450 (no buffs), so I'm hoping to figure out some macros for the higher recipes. I wager the one that Liam mentioned is close to what I need (don't have the CP for streamlined stuff). Any attempt to look for macros still involves "YOU NEED 475-500+ CP BASE" which I've given up trying to reach as I'm not swimming in gil or red scrips to replace my melds (even though most of them are overmelded to CP cap).

Thus far (as a specialist) I'm at:
CFT 1505 - CON 1450 - CP 450

Any suggestions/recommendations? Preferably without HQ Temp or CP-Tea (I have NQ Temp from Kugane and HQ/NQ non-CP tea).

It you're talking about 3 star recipes, Katlyna's thread is your savior, as they require very minimal stats despite the RNG:

500 base CP seems rather unreasonably high... is that even possible? I have 470-ish base CP.
