    true that flexibility is needed with creating 3 star gear, but even then you still want to maximize your chances and having a good base pattern to work around helps a lot with regards to it.

    plus as ding ding said if we get enough cp in the future then its a guaranteed thing like 2 star. As it stands though there's rng to contend with which I'm fine with as I like a little gamble with my synths.

    Unless the crafting sim was updated recently, don't trust it. Quaduple checked my craft/control as well as difficulty of attempted synth. Simulator miscalculated progress big time and resulted in my breaking my first 3-star synth.

    User beware.

    I don't trust it, I know the progress will succeed since i've done that on other 3 star synths.

    I only used the crafting simulator as a guide to steps and percentages not progress.


    some testing confirms the rotation succeeds. however terminus putty only got to 39% after failing 3 hasty touch's, but with great strides.

    I also made a cashmere skirt of aiming, starting at 1703 quality, got 4 tot and used full rotation with 2 missed hasty touch's and it hq'd no problem.

    I also made a cashmere robe of healing, starting at 1703 quality. got 1 tot and missed 2 hasty touch's couldn't use great strides got to 76% quality. rng threw me an nq though, but still solid quality rating. although not what we would want to see.

    Just tried a cashmere skirt of striking starting at 1703 quality, got 3 tot but decided to sabotage my synth. I used one basic touch (failed) the rest hasty's although 2 failed. and the steady hand 2 to cover byregots blessing. skipped great strides and innovation in favour of a good proc of bb. got to 84% quality rng still gave me a hq though.

    in conclusion the rotation works and there's parts that can be switched around in favour of good and excellent procs. but even if you don't so long as you get two tot starting with most hq mats this works and if you have 1 tot and all hq mats it would work, even with a few missed hasty's youll still get high percentage of quality.

    I admit its not perfect and its a gamble but from what I see all rotations are a gamble to a degree.
