Heavensword 2* Red Scrip Crafting Rotation

[Sollux]

1.) If you save IQ until after the FS are done you have an additional FS and a useable ToT chance as well. Not like you will use PT before then anyways.

MMrk uses 20 CP. PbP uses 15 CP. CZ will return 14 CP. The entire MMrk section uses 21 CP total meaning if you get more than 1 Good it will essentially be a waste as it isn't worth using ToT for 1 more CP. Using IQ early brings the total cost of the MMrk phase to 39 CP meaning you can ToT 2 Goods and will only lose out on 1 CP, AND pay for IQ at the same time. Yes you only benefit from using it early IF you get a second Good however you can hold off on using IQ until you've already gotten your first Good. Either way you do not have to use IQ during MMrk and can just delay it until afterwards.

Assuming I'm looking at the right rotation our rotations are VERY similar however yours is much more limited in flexibility:

1. Your rotation has 9 more steps than mine where ToT is not advised due to your large reliance on 9 FS being successful.

2. This in turn makes it much more complicated to fit in a PT (Assuming you didn't start with 455+ CP).

3. You mention the CP cost of my rotation, however if you don't plan to use INN then the cost is only 422 CP, 15 CP cheaper than yours.

4. Without additional stats (445 CP and 738 craft) and a perfect MMrk phase your rotation only has 11 HT compared to my 12, then 2 average HT failures puts you at 9 HT on average. Combine that with limited places to ToT and consequently PT and you have much less likelihood of reaching 11 stacks.

Your rotation is more stable than mine Progress-wise, but Quality-wise it has much less flexibility. Mine also gets more flexible the higher your stats are where yours stays relatively the same, save for an extra PT with 455 CP to start.
