I believe in the k.i.s.s. method fully.

There should be two ways to craft, automated and manual

In automated, you select what you want made, and how many. You get half the sp with no chance of HQ. It'd just be a set-and-forget style that'd have a random thing pop up at different areas of the screen asking if you're there still. Maybe at the cost of anima.

Manually you get full sp and HQ chances.

Wanna prevent botting? Change the crafting system so it's not so brain numbing or required for nearly everything. Many who play MMOs are quite patient but there's a line even they cannot tolerate.
