New rotation?

[Kenji1134]

Done some quick calcs in Excel. If you start the rotation off with MaMa (Makers Mark) and go triple PBP (Piece by Piece) you should get a ton of left over FS's (Flawless Synthesis) to fish for red balls, run 3 CZ's (Comfort Zone) and have a M2 (Manipulation 2) in order to restore mostly all your CP, have 70 starting Durability and have all but a handful of progress already made. Sure it ain't fast but gives you a real fighting chance of HQ every time.

Now to optimize the quality stage....

Yep, 3x PbP and then land 80% of your 90% success rate Flawless and you will be a hair from finishing, so 1 CS2 to finish the job, then focus on quality.

For reference, on these synths where you have 64 MaMa stacks, you can spare 20% or just shy of 13 and be well within a CS2 finish. Of those 13, 1 for IQ, 1 for SH, 3 for PbP, 1 for Manip... baseline 6 MaMa's used, leaving you with 7 for ToT. (Honestly more like 10 since CS2 is worth several FS's). I am pretty sure the above costs 173 CP total, which means you need to hit 7 Goods to come out with full Dur and CP, on 7-10 extra MaMa's.

All in all, other than being stupidly long, this is super effective.

That is pretty much what I have been doing, except I added in a whistle while you work. Lets you recover the CP faster and once you get some back can just use nymeia's to get the progress back up as well.

I can't help but feel like that was on purpose to stop macro's. Why else have it? I mean, seeing as it basically puts you within one CS2 away from finish, with full (or almost full) CP, and 70/70 (if you mend while wading through the 5k sea of FS.)

For those wanting a rotation, what I've been doing is: MM, CZ, SH1, PbP x 3, FS's to finish SH1, refresh CZ as needed, use TotT, use Master Mend 1, use spam FS for 5 hours (letting up for TotT and CZ refresh). This SHOULD take you within one CS2 away. Quality: SH2, prudent until SH2 falls off, Man 2, CZ, Ingen 2, SH2, prudent until around 140 or so CP (and hopefully 11.) Then I spot things, depending on how far the quality progress is and my CP. Ultimately, I like using the SH1, Ingen2, GS, Inno, BB, and finish with CS2 or 3 (I'll do three just in case if I have the CP. Why not, right?)

I know that leaves a lot to be desired but it's worked for me thus far. Greater crafting minds than I will make a tighter rotation. You really in Ingen 2 at the midpoint when building quality. That really, really helps.
