Orphanage Donation Rotation

[Alsar]

Anyone got a good rotation for those?

[DrWho2010]

depends on your gear. i can do it in like 6 steps of innerquiet/hasty touch then innovation great strides byregots and just CS II to finish it. pretty basic.

Varies on Gear and what cross class you have unlocked. So could you be abit more specific? Example what classes you have unlocked or what your able to HQ 3 start or 4 Star rating currently? If you can HQ 3 star you should be ok. It's not like you need to max out quality just min req. same amount reward.

Fully melded IW, just wanted to know the fastest rotation for those. 1019 craft, 955 control, 430cp

I'm using: Muscle Memory, CZ, IQ, WN, SH II, Basic Touch x5, Manipulation, SH II, Basic Touch, GS, Innovation, Ingenuity II, BB, CS II x3.

This is enough to do all the custom deliveries, including the 60 1-star, without food and without hasty touch (so no randomness involved). It's also pretty fast and can be made into a macro.

The only drawback is that it requires WN and Manipulation (as well as Muscle Memory and both Innovation and Ingenuity II at the same time), which might not be standard cross classes that you have for other rotations.

Since you're at -35 at that point, can't you use Master's Mend instead of Manipulation there? You're only saving 3 CP anyway, and that puts it at 422 if I didn't miscalculate. To be honest, however, I have all of those cross-class skills on Blacksmith, which is the class I use to craft those things.

That's exactly the same as the one I wrote for myself!

Thank you. Made the macro

A variant is to remove CZ (convenient if people don't have it yet, or want to keep cross-skills to the minimum), and switch the second SH2 to SH1 and use a standard touch instead of the last BT. 425 CP.

Good to see you active here, cgbspender! *wave wave wave*

Actually, ST is 14 CP (+) more than BT, and SH is 3 CP (-) fewer than SH II, so the extra CP in the end is 11 (+).
418 + 11 = 429 CP needed, and this is still using CZ. If you remove CZ, then it'll be 443 needed.

Considering the fact that I personally have 425 base CP, it is actually valid since I can eat a Stone Soup and reach 442 CP.

If you're using ST, I think it's actually more beneficial to move Innov earlier to cover the ST. This renders Ingen2 unable to cover Blessing, but the final quality might be higher.

However, with this arrangement, you won't be able to fit in Byregot's Brow as a "Poor" condition protector for Blessing, because SH makes Brow unsafe, and also fitting Brow over GS doesn't make sense, as GS is 2x in power, while a "Good" + Brow would be significantly less powerful.

Omitting CZ does make the process 1 step faster. But with all these complications, I'd rather swap out Manipulation for Master's Mend instead like elfolampo suggested earlier. It's only 4 CP more, but it does the job of saving a cross class slot, and I can still fit in a Byregot's Brow.
