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

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!

But his rotations have much room for improvement. I think people like Katlyna, Jade, Rath etc put in a lot more effort in refining their rotations, so their rotations are usually more effective and CP-efficient.

Yes, my thoughts exactly. You were just more elegant with your words
