Sadly already finished with Cosmic Exploration

Others might disagree, but the class A missions are way too hard. Gave up even bothering to try those after a time. Really disappointed.

The class A missions are hard, it's true, in the sense that you can't tune out and watch YouTube and mash macro buttons to do them. They force you to actually pay attention.

But I've managed to clear most of them on my alchemist so far.

I think a lot of the 100 penta melded crafters are opting to get gold on the A ranks, then swap back down to the less intense B ranks for grinding because you can just smack macros for those. (Even then, you better pay attention on what the durability and quality requirements are.)

Faster to spam B rank missions for I, II, III research points even as a pentamelded crafter.

A rank missions for IV research points, but I'll only touch one or two of the missions out of the bunch.

I've got pretty cheap pentamelds and most of the A-1/A-2 ones are very macroable. About the only one that gives me trouble is the 9000/23000 collectable one and a macro still works for gold about ~90% of the time.

Very few A rank missions are worth completing for research points. There's two that are the best, III-18 I-12 and IV-30 II-20.

Resetting missions is annoying af, so I end up spamming the III-6 II-6 I-6 mission instead.

They take 4-5 minutes for roughly double the points/rewards so it's more efficient, long as you aren't failing all the time for some reason.

All the A-1 missions and all except one A-2 mission can be consistently macroed for Gold Rank if you have BiS pentamelds and HQ Steak+Tisane. The 9100/16300 A-2 mission can too if you add in Specialist actions. I'm unsure tho on the A-3 missions as I've not done them enough
