Tricks of the Trade

[Caztiel]

Hi all. I was thinking that since Tricks of the Trade now also procs on a "excellent" condition that it should give back double the cp it would from a "good" rating given you are giving up a big boost to quality for cp.

I initially thought this, but now I disagree.

You have to decide whether it's worth it to use ToT on that Excellent or to go for a quality increase.
The fact that it was changed to where you could ToT on Excellent was already a huge benefit on it's own. Can't tell you how many times pre-HW I'd get an Excellent without SH2 up, and then have to decide to gamble it or not... AND more often than not it's not worth the gamble. So I'd just ignore it and go about my normal rotation.

Now I have the luxury of getting some CP back in this situation and other rare instances where Excellent might show up outside my normal rotation... like Step 2.
