Testing 1436 synthesis

[cearka]

Seems that way, yes.


My data: 749 Craftmanship
12x Flawless synthesis 480 progress

[Ingen II finisher]
1th Brand: 343
2th Brand: 273
3th Brand: 217
CF II: 176

the 3rd hit was bigger then CSII, I checked again, but thats irrelevant since you don't need the 3rd brand to complete. you can use CSII instead and still save 6 cp.

it would appear between 749 and 752 you get 4 points different on the brand 1, 3 points different on brand 2, no difference on CSII.

using Aeyis's numbers, that 3rd brand is also unnecessary. if he were to drop the 3rd brand in favor of CSII, he'd still get 1448/1436, meaning still completion with 6 cp saved. Even if he opened iwth muscle memory, that still makes for 1441/1436. basically that 3rd brand is causing him to overshoot and cost 6 extra cp, which may or may not beable to contribute to something else.

so there isn't a descrepency so much as simple change in numbers from only 3 points of craft. I would go as far to say now, seeing aeyis's numbers, that 749 is now the BOTTOM craft you can have to complete with 2x brand 2x csII vs 3x brand 1x csII

EDIT
actually that descrepency might not be from those 3 points of craft now that i think about it. The descrepency comes from the fact that brand is affected by remainign progress. Aeyis does his brand at 480. I do mine at 473. This, AND/OR the difference in craft, could account for the 4 point difference. in my original test, I tried doing a brand at 0 progress, and the difference was massively different (442), so brand is obviously really sensitive to its starting point.
