Thread: Rotations / macro for Lv.60 one-star

Looking for a resource that has rotations and macros for some of the new crafting items. Melded out my gear and would like to start making some goods for profit, but can't a good resource -- I'm basically using my old 4-star rotations from pre-HW. Specifically, I'd like a reliable rotation or macro for some of the CUL one-star master foods. Thank you for your time!

I don't have macro for 1 star yet. Apparently, progress is an issue. At 730-ish craftsmanship, we need about 5 to 6 steps to complete the item even if we use Rapid Syn. But Rapid Syn is a bad idea for macro anyway. I think at higher craft like 800, we can probably use MaMa+FS, then Ingen2+CS II for completion. Yes, FS is hard to predict outcome, and it'll take up nearly 1 macro button's 15 lines. So we'll end up with a 3 part macro. But FS can reach more progress than MusMem and will consume no durab. For quality, i'm positive it'll be MM2 + WN2. The rest is probably fitting here and there with Hasties and a finisher Byregot. Nobody likes a Hasty macro, and that's probably why we haven't released any of that...

However, I do have some macro for items below 1 star which could be useful to the public. They all use zero hasty, and are very reliable:

Evian, good attempt! But that rotation has only 6 touches in there... For 1 star, we usually need about 9 touches to get it HQ. Your rotation will require the use of all HQ mats, and still, you may not get it to 100% HQ rate... :/

Katlyna's 1 star rotation above is much more viable as it has a lot more touches. It is exactly like I expected - consisting of MaMa+FS to save 10 durab, used WN2 and MM2, which are the 2 best durab-conservation skills we can afford in a macro at the moment with our CP pool, and then finish off with Ingen2+CS II spam. Still, I'm not a big fan of Hasty in macros... I will definitely manual craft my 1 star at the moment.

Thanks Caimie. And you're right you're better of manually doing one star... but I suspect the macro I posted would be ok for cheep food. Actually I think I'm going to post a slight variation of what I posted as my recommended 1 star approach. The only change being you would want to cast inner quiet after the first CZ.

I gave the instructions on how to get it to 100% HQ, yes, you will need to use some HQ mats OR get lucky with Precise Touches. Macros are for mindlessly mass-producing products anyway. If you're that concerned with taking 1-star items from purely NQ materials to a 100% HQ synthesis, you should definitely be crafting manually and using a reliable rotation. I don't like including Hasty Touches or Flawless Syntheses in macros, but I will craft manually with them, no questions asked.

As for 35 durab rotations with zero Hasties, I made a comparison of Mithrie's, yours and my rotations here:

With both 444 CP, although you have an extra IQ stack, I think I am able to squeeze out slightly more quality with my rotation, since I have an extra Great Strides & extra Innovation in there.

Anyway, personally, I have been using my rotations at 412 CP because i150 gear with melding provides at least 395 CP, and all I needed was a NQ Stone Soup (37 gil from the Gold Saucer) to add 17 CP to reach 412, which I pop at will and require no crafting to make.

With i170 accessories, my CP is much higher now and can afford stronger version of these rotations. But before I had any i170, all my 412 CP rotations were still usable.

As for the lvl 58 rotation, I have tested and compared with many, many other rotations. I am very confident and dare say that it's MAXED for 412 CP (without the use of Hasty). If anyone can get more quality squeezed out than that in 412 CP, I will gladly pledge myself to be her/his apprentice! LOL! :P

I'll test your macro right now and see. The one I created is doing pretty well actually, but if yours is better, I'll make the switch. Mithrie's macro is useless right now, some of his stuff sorely needs updated to reflect better crafting stats. I usually love his stuff, but it's part of the reason I went out looking for another macro and ended up creating my own.

EDIT: Your 35 durability macro (444 CP version) does come out to having more quality in the end product (just by a couple hundred progress, but still more). Now I have to decide if I want to use your macro and lose the extra Basic Touch and losing a possible Precise Touch proc or going with the more reliable (slightly) higher quality outcome. Good work!
