Ready for 2-Star

[KupoRupo]

I was about to give it posting on this thread. But I just had to.

You care about it's appearance, so why bother HQ'ing? Why bother increasing your chances of HQ'ing? You don't care. So why do it? Just go with NQ simple and easy. Then you wont' have to deal with "the worst community you've ever seen" for calling you out and needing a rotation. If you honestly didn't care a single bit, you wouldn't be trying to HQ any of it and just get it NQ. Why you want to dedicate your time and money to making one of the best pieces of gear in the game for only it's appearance and not a single care for it's stats is beyond me. For RP'ing? I don't know. Why not have both since you're making it already?

No one' saying your "playstyle"(there's a playstyle now for crafting?) is wrong. We're just saying it's not optimal for HQ'ing 2 star. You're asking for help on rotations, which is basically us giving you our rotations. Isn't that the same thing as you "playing like us?" All of us prefer to HQ 100% everything. Why wouldn't you? Of course, everybody has their weird logic I guess and I won't judge.

P.S. I don't know how you found me aggressive and rude but okay. I don't understand your logic anyways.

In OPs defense he wasn't looking for the very best way to guarantee HQ, he was looking for the best way to get the highest chance of HQ given his circumstances. Is his opinion shared by most that play the game? No, but it's his opinion.

Steady Hands II is probably the most important ability for reducing variance in longer synths along with tricks of trade.

My set up is kind of like this but I'm a weaver by trade. 362crft/348ctrl.
50gsm: Innovation, manipulation
50wvr: Careful synthesis II
50crp: Byregot's Blessing
37cul: Hasty Touch/Steady Hand II
15alc: tricks of trade
15ltw: waste not (rare use)
15bsm: Ingenuity (important for HQ2*)

You want to be hitting 100% on your HQ2s no matter what because you're investing at least a few days worth of boring synths and your stuff selling on the market to get the money back for a failed/nq synth. To the OP, part of the challenge of crafting in this game is to create a situational gambit where every option you have is fairly close to optimum. This is why I want to eventually get every craft to 50 pending my sanity of sitting through it

OP's logic :
I need skill rotation on HQ'ing gears but I don't care about HQ.

This is what I'm talking about on the worst community ever.
More like.... I want to optimize my chances of getting HQ but I wont be super disappointed if it doesn't HQ, silly little troll bumping a completed thread.

Oh please, you just made my post as an excuse to yourself being a genius.

If you won't be "super disappointed" then why bother put an effort creating this thread? You can just rambo your way to crafting 2 star gears since you said you won't be disappointed anyway.

People gave you an idea/what you need, yet you're stubborn enough to accept their advice, keep telling us you only want to work with what you have, then ALAS by all means work with what you have and never expect anything since you won't be disappointed right?

I'm a troll

Go away troll. I got the advice I needed here and I HQ'd it. Threads over. Go troll elsewhere.

Leveling a 50 CRP, 37 CUL, 15 WVR, 15 BSM and 15 GSM is all you need to guarantee yourself a 2 Star HQ.

I really thought crafting HQ 2 ** Items is nearly impossbile because i heard ppl talking/crying about and ment its incredible hard.
So i put some effort in the other classes before i tried it out.
Its a JOKE at least for every item where u need another preitem. (like chest, "shoulderguard")
What u need is all mats in HQ and your craftingclass to 50, + the following all on 15 (ALC,CUL,BSM,ARM,WVR) thats it, using HQ only mats give u close to 50% of the quality so u only need 1,5k quality which is piece of cake.
Finsihing off with rapid or standard synthesis.
The only thing u really need to care about is the 9 tomes mat like leather for me, just make sure u can progress it to 100% even if u need to cut HQ. You can make the preitem which u need for most of the armor parts HQ easy with a NQ leather.

my stats which are not incredible high (CMS 347, Control 322 and 360 CP(with buff food) i crafted about 10 hq 2 star items without any miss one had 96% rest was 100%
i repeat this counts for armor parts with preitems
i will try Rings where u need 2 Leather (probably on HQ to get a decent amount of quality) only after i got CUL to 37

oh and as LTW to LTW never use Waste Not I or II its not worth it

I have similar stats. What's your skill rotation? I'm going to be crafting my first 2-star tonight.
