10 Hasty Touch 3-star rotation, my gift to the community before AFK

[CasuallySerious]

i just failed and got NQ following this. broken english doesnt help following the setups. especially from between steps 4/5/6/7..

I was confused by these steps also until I broke it down in a simulator. Here is what he meant.
1. CZ (if good use ToT)

2. Inner (if good use ToT)

3. WN I (if good and you haven't gotten a tricks proc yet then use ToT otherwise move to the next step)

4. SH II

5 - 9. These steps are handled based on condition priority (So this is what you do for steps 5,6,7,8,9). Here are the priority rules:

** Did you use tricks in steps 1 ,2 or 3 ? If not - use your first good condition for tricks otherwise skip to next priority.

** If the condition is normal/poor and you have not used 2 x Piece by Piece then use Piece by Piece. (so basically the first two normal/poor conditions will be used for piece by piece). If the condition is good/excellent skip to the next priority.

** Use Hasty Touch

Pbp = Piece By Piece (level 50 Armorer -- Increases remaining progress by 1/3)

MM = Master's Mend (level 7 Alchemist -- Restores 30 Durability)

In order to help those who still had problems understanding the steps (myself included, above picture I didn't quite get), here's a written step by step guide I tried to make as clear as possible using OP's post.

Obviously if you can't use Tricks of the Trade when it says to, move on to the next step.

Comfort Zone
Tricks of the Trade
Inner Quiet
Tricks of the Trade
Waste Not

=============If no Tricks of the trade before now, use TotT once (only 1 time max) when/if it procs otherwise don't use TotT
Steady Hand II
Next 5 Steps (Until Steady Hand II runs out)
--If Normal: Use Piece by Piece (Needed 2 times)
--If Good: Use Hasty Touch (Use 3 times MAX)
=============End if

If 2 Comfort Zone stack left (Happens if you have not gotten any TotT procs so far)
--------If condition is good and no TotT was used before, use TotT
--------else use Hasty Touch

***Should have 1 or 0 stacks of Comfort Zone left now
Tricks of the Trade
Comfort Zone
Tricks of the Trade
Steady Hand II

=======If you still haven't gotten TotT once since starting and get good condition between now and 15 or 20 durability left, use TotT when/if it procs, otherwise don't use TotT.
Hasty Touch until 15 or 20 Durability left

When 15 or 20 Dur left
--------If condition is good and/or 1 stack of SH2 is left, use Hasty Touch
--------else move onto next step

Tricks of the Trade
Master's Mend II
Tricks of the Trade

Until condition is 55 or 60
--------If Condition is good use TotT
--------else use Hasty Touch

Steady Hand II

==============================
If used TotT 3 or more times (116+ CP left)
--------Use Basic Touch 2 times
Else if used TotT 2 times (98+ CP left)
--------If Condition is equal to good or excellent, use Basic Touch then Hasty Touch
--------Else Use Hasty Touch then Basic Touch
Else (if used TotT 1 time) (80+ CP left)
--------Use Hasty Touch 2 times
==============================

If Condition is Excellent use Byregot's Blessing
--------else use Great Strides

If Condition is Good or Excellent use Byregot's Blessing then Ingenuity II
--------else use Ingenuity II then Byregot's Blessing

Byregot's Blessing
Careful Synthesis II
Careful Synthesis II
Careful Synthesis II

So I tried this rotation, and I failed before I hit 0 durability. According to the OP, it only takes 2 PbP and 3x CS II to hit the 100% progress. I have Cr 396, and the 2 PbP yield 244/445 progress. My CS II give 56 progress each. So the 2 x PbP and 3 x CSII only gets to 412/445 progress. Has something changes since the original post?

Never mind. I was missing the Ingenuity II...

I think that it should be better to reach 453 crship and use normal 12-13 HT rotations. It is not very easy to reach normal results with 10 ht rotation. And it uses RS - you have a risk to loose all making a lot of reclaims (50% of crafts will get IQ8 or less)

This is an outdated rotation from over a year back.. Crafting gear has improved since then and you have much more stats at your disposal now..
