Most of the searches here have me overly confused (a usual state of mine for sure) regarding **40 durability rotations. I'm trying to unlock some recipe books, for example need HQ Hard Hippo Leather for LTW. My gear isn't all melded to max, cp is probably a little lacking. That said what is a decent suggested rotation? I'm not looking for 100% by any means just want to maximize my potential without spending a fortune for materia. Right now I try: CZ, IQ, SH2, WN2 then back and forth between CS2 & HT and use Manipulation at some point, then GS, BB and finish with CS2. I keep running out of durability/cp and can only get to about 20-40% chance of hq. Is there a better rotation or skill I'm not using that I should be, which materia is a necessity if I'm going to spend some to upgrade a few things? Oh and Excellent almost always equals "Fail" for me, even with SH2. Is that a low control or craftsmanship rating thing? Or am I just unlucky?
