    My Ala Mhigan Rotation from NQ and 3 star from NQ 100% rotations

    Caime that is an extremely good guide, and I love your quote as its true! :-)

    I am going to Share a couple of my rotations I made these myself with the calculator to tweak them :-)

    sorry, the screenshots are not the best :P

    They are full NQ mat rotations for Ala Mhigan gear and 3 stars, which I use mainly as my non-specialists.

    Ala Mhigan full NQ my stats are 1583 control, 1560 craftsmanship, 471 CP, I use HQ tempura and HQ cunning tea to boost CP to 553 to avoid a bad build with flawless synthesis.

    requires 1 TOT. hence the extra 20 CP:- Use during Flawless Build

    See the rotation below on the calculator.



    the 3 star one is exactly the same just you need to get 3 tricks of the trade and have around 1548 and 538 cp control to pull it off.

    Requires 3 tots Hence the 60 extra cp. Use during Flawless Build when CZ is up only.

    Thanks so much for the compliments!

    For your rotations here, I feel like there are a few minor issues...
    (1) The stats requirements are too harsh... 1583 control is over the top... I have doubts whether it's even achievable with overmelds if you're using Tempura. You're gonna have to overmeld your heart out on your mainhand and offhand. Especially that you designed this Ala Mhigan rotation for non-specialist, which lacks the soul stone. So that means even less stats are available. For me, I have pentamelded all my gear (except tools), and my non-specialist classes have only 1428 control.

    (2) You didn't have much room during the FS spam phase for Trick of Trades.

    As you can see after the 5th CZ, CP gets pretty close to max. If you take 2 Tricks, it may hit over max CP, and the CP would be wasted. I'd suggest spending some CP earlier, so that you have more room for taking Trick of Trades. Also a minor issue, but you could move the 2nd CZ 1 step up.

    (3) The best location to take ToTs is during the FS spam phase, but you cut the progress so close (for the 3 star rotation) that if you take 3 to 4 ToTs, you may not have enough progress made from the FS's. You may also need to prepare for a few FS failures.
