I agree don't bother with it, it is not worth the grind imho! the DOTL tools are okay though. Use the yellow scripts for the materials you need to craft with. You can still make the requirements with Grade V's materia, you can compensate the control with HQ items which you should be doing anyway with the new 3*** recipes
