But at least with WN, you don't get a big fat BOOM if the buff wore off in an inopportune time, or something, there's still a chance you can complete the synth even if you take an action without WN being up depending on how close you are to running out of CP/Durability. Also the fact that WNII is 8 steps instead of 5 helps a lot too.

I had several times earlier when Excellent proc'd right after WN wore off and I snuck in an extra Touch action to take advantage of that.

With Steady Hands, 99% of the time I tried that, the touch would always fail. Always.

So glad you can do everything with 100% success now. Failures were so lame. And they would happen constantly. I can't count the number of times that I'd have SH2 up and use HT2 and despite me supposedly having what was that 80%? 90%? success with the two combined? and I'd fail 3, 4, 5 in a single recipe.

It was always SO lame when the game decided "Nope, you ain't HQing this no matter what you do".

I am GLAD that is gone.

Manipulation is still there (and most likely still superior to Waste Not in most cases). It's just not available until level 65 now.

And a tip for those who need to change all their hot bars, you can copy from one to another to save yourself a lot of time and pain. So, if you got your ALC set to where you want it, you could copy it to all your other crafters by using the following command:

/hotbar copy ALC 1 CRP 1

This will replace your first CRP hotbar with the same skills as your ALC. You just change the hotbar or job based on which bar you want to replace (ie, /hotbar copy ALC 2 CRP 2 or/hotbar copy ALC 1 WVR 1).

I recommend just copy-pasting one command and altering it or making a macro and altering that (if you can't copy-paste).
