Agreed.

With decent melds (not fully maxed since I farmed the materia myself) I can 1-100% the new gear on NQ Chili Crab and nothing else, non-specialist. No need to care about HQ for the intermediate mats, new food, draughts or the rest. Just throw a macro together day 1 and churn out new gear. It's a little disappointing since Master Crafts are basically figured out right from the start.

Great rotations as always though
