Very Helpful, thank you

Most looks fine and well done for all the effort gone into this.

However I think the 4* macro is a bad idea, to get a decent success rate on these people are much better off learning how to craft manually and adapt situationally based on the RNG they are given, it also allows for more optimal progress skills to be used.

I do absolutely agree. The 4* macro doesn't finish the craft, which allows you to Reclaim if needed. In fact by the end of the second macro in the set, you might have to also Reclaim and try again. However, the guide should serve as a basis for what rotation works for 4* in case you have no clue. It's worked incredibly well for me so far, getting all my Artisan armor crafted to 100% HQ and couple other items for others without much issue.

For the items to unlock the 4* recipes I do that 100% manually for the reasons you've explained.

If you insist on suggesting that macro, at least change the Steady Hand II at the end to Steady Hand. Byregot's Blessing doesn't need Steady Hand II, it's 90% success rate. This saves you 3 CP. There are a few other improvements that can be made to it.

Still, people should really learn how to craft for those. The macro is reducing your success rate quite a bit, as shown by how many times you had to reclaim.

What else would you change in it? You have any links to good 4 Star rotations?

Just saw the video for 2-star 40 Durability crafting. When your quality meter jumped to 100%, that was absolutely insane! Then again, I'm still a rookie crafter who's been having trouble getting to even 30% on 2-stars, so yeah.

It's done by stacking Inner Quiet then using Byregot's Blessing. If you look at the different guides I've made I've explained it all. I have more than 75 crafting and gathering guides on my channel if you want to check them out.

Hey, just a quick note, you say the following:

The macro is as follows:
Replace ( and ) with square brackets:

I believe it should be angle brackets <>

I just subbed to your channel. And I realized that my materia melding is utter garbage compared to what is needed, so I have to revamp my entire materia meld just to get those fancy guaranteed 100% 2-stars. C'est la vie. Just gonna grind for coke and cash. Which is hilarious, considering what that implies out of context.
