Another way to get Artisans Spectacles, No max meld needed.

[Divine_Intervention]

Hey guys, so i spent a lot of time and a stressy hour making the Spicy Tomato Relish to turn in for Artisans Spectacles the other night. Now I'm not max melded, and i don't have all lvl 50 skills (specifically armorer, blacksmith and leatherworker). I thought i'd share how i did this.
Please note, this is NOT a 100% guaranteed HQ rotation, but with a little luck, and enough HQ mats to work with, it does work.



Requirements
CUL level 50
Cross Class Skills (I had all relevant except Ingenuity).
4 x level II craftsman materia in your Culinarian Set (be prepared to clear this out if you want to max meld your culinarian, go for armor side only , not accessories).
HQ Rolanberry Cheesecake
Free Company Buffs to increase craftsmanship + control.


Progress Phase
Inner Quiet
Steady Hand II
Standard Synthesis till 30 durability (use tricks of the trade whenever it comes up!)
Careful Synthesis II
The above should see you at enough synthesis to finish it in one step. I go with progress first on this, allowing me to either take a chance and complete if my HQ is enough, or reclaim it.

Quality Phase
Masters Mend II at 20 durability.
Steady Hand II
Waste Not
Hasty Touch till 20 durability, using ToT when available.
Great strides
Innovation
Byregot's Blessing
Depending on your luck with the above, either reclaim, or complete the progress.



So, give this a go. Yes, it's kinda messy. Yes, it relies on luck a fair bit. But it worked for me. I failed a few, but more often than not it worked. Took me a few breaks to figure out just what i needed synth wise xD
Good luck, let me know if this helps you out!
-edit notes- I'm sure this can be improved on, saving CP here and there, if you give it a go, and figure something more effective, just let me know
