Endwalker Expert Recipe Guide by Caimie Tsukino

Well thank you for that. It's a lot to digest and over multiple readings.
I've been following a few videos that mainly show people crafting these due to luck. Lots of ".. and now if could just get a... YEAH centered there you go"'s.

You mentioned " one may succeed in doing these Expert Recipes while the other may fail miserably" well I fall into that latter category. Our stats are nearly identical except for the FC buff.
The opening synth phase is easy enough - it either works or it doesn't, due to bad RNG but at least you find out earlier rather than later to just hit the Quit button.

Its the quality phase I'm having a devil of a time with.. but that's nothing new with me I've hated Expert Recipes since they first debuted and that hasn't changed one bit.
I'm on a mission this time to get this figured out.

Yes and no... I found that I can usually afford 3 to 4 failed Rapid Syn. If I fail 6x or more, I'd probably just quit it. But otherwise, I usually try not to give up too early.
Spamming of Rapid Syn while Vene is up is a common thing to do... even I do it sometimes. But I now tend to refrain from doing it too recklessly. Sometimes, it seems burning 1 step of Vene with something else (like observe) to get the conditions to roll really helps. If we can just get most of the Rapid Syns to land on a Sturdy, Centered or Malleable, then the chance of "final failure of craft" can be reduced. But because of the "delays" induced by actions like Observe, sometimes it's just hard to know whether you should quit it or not at the opening phase. That's why I said "yes and no", because it's not always true that one can identify early whether it's a dead craft or not (unless one set up Vene+Rapid Syn spam 2 times in a row, and fail like 6 to 7 Rapid Syn within seconds).
