    First question: which DoH do you have at lvl 50? If you only have a few it'll be a little difficult to HQ, especially without Carpenter and Weaver.

    Second question: what's your primary quality building skill? If it's not Hasty Touch (for 40 durability) then you won't have sufficient CP

    I could give a macro but currently out of the house and by the time I get back somebody may have already posted one. If not I'll get to it

    Try this, it uses 376CP.

    I put it together quickly, there probably are better ones out there, but it should help you for now.

    Part 1:

    /ac "Comfort Zone"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Inner Quiet"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Waste Not"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Steady Hand II"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Hasty Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Hasty Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Manipulation"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Steady Hand II"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Ingenuity II"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>

    (if excellent use part 3, else use part 2)

    Part 2:

    /ac "Great Strides"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Byregot's Blessing"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Careful Synthesis II"<me>

    Part 3:

    /ac "Byregot's Blessing"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Careful Synthesis II"<me>

    Or there is this macro I used to use:

    Part 1:

    /ac "Comfort Zone"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Inner Quiet"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Steady Hand II"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Manipulation"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Basic Touch"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Great Strides"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Steady Hand"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Ingenuity II"<me><wait.2>
    /ac "Standard Touch"<me>
    /ac "Great Strides"<me><wait.2>

    (if excellent use part 3, else use part 2)

    Part 2:

    /ac "innovation" <me><wait.3>
    /ac "Byregot's Blessing"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Careful Synthesis II"<me>

    Part 3:

    /ac "Byregot's Blessing"<me><wait.3>
    /ac "Careful Synthesis II"<me>


    I know it uses 381CP, but I can't remember what control was needed for best results, may be worth you trying.

    Heya

    So I'm pretty sure your higher than what my Leatherworker is at the moment but this is the rotation I've been using and it works for me about 80-90% of the time. It Requires 347Craftmanship, 358cp It's a 40 Dur Rotation used for the Master Recipe Books.

    Comfort Zone
    Inner Quiet
    Steady Hand II
    Waste Not I
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Manipulation
    Steady Hand II
    Waste Not I
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Hasty Touch
    Steady Hand***
    Great Strides
    Ingenuity II
    Byregot's Blessing
    Careful Synthesis II
    Careful Synthesis II

    If you get an excellent condition after you use steady hand, just skip to byregot's blessing, if you get a good after great strides use byregotts blessing, but DO NOT skip ingenuity II as you will not finish the synthesis.

    I got this off FFXIV Guild Three Star, Master Crafting Rotations, Hasn't failed me much. Good luck!

    hehe

    I also broke this down into a two part macro and just said screw the byregotts blessing possibility and left it as what i stated above. again my melds are full melded accessory's no melds on off hand, and just a +3cp +3 Control on both legs and feet and if i can do it with just that your going to be HQ'ing these no problem!

    It's exactly what you asked for. A macro to guarantee HQing Hippogryph Leather. It just requires a bit of reading so it works.
