Master Crafting Books II, Rotation help please!!

[HakuroDK]

One thing you have to learn when crafting in the endgame is to let go of your preconceptions that macros and rotations are optimal.

You need to learn to let those preconceptions go. And I say that with the most sincerity I can possibly muster, because I learned the hard way that relying on macros and rotations was actually causing my crafting skill as a player to be worse.

The best thing I can suggest is that you get every single crafting class to 50, fill your cross-class slots to the brim with a series of recommended skills such as Piece by Piece, Tricks of the Trade, Byregot's Blessing, Careful Synthesis II, Hasty Touch, Rapid Synthesis, Ingenuity II, Innovation, and others.

I recommend starting every craft with the following 3 skills in order: Comfort Zone, Inner Quiet, and Steady Hand II. Be sure to use Tricks of the Trade on *EVERY* Good Condition you get.

From this point, there is variation on what you can do. You can either start by improving Progress or Quality. It is generally accepted to work on Progress first, getting it high enough so that you can complete it with a single Careful Synthesis II.
