So I tried the new crafting and while I was expecting it to be a bit harder, this is on another level entirely.

How I felt after trying...

So you came up with 42?

I like you.

I just gather random stuffs, sell them, and use the money from it to buy the things that I actually need to make something.

Yeah..not really worth it tbh unless you really need that mount. I harvested about 200k worth of mats, thought to sell t but decided to try the scratch tickets. Made 10 things, traded them in and even went on the guaranteed 2-4 rarity. What did I win? 2 grade V mATERIA and some moogle tchotchke. Sold those for a whopping 10k Gil.

Yeah no. I will just grind and sell my mats from here on.

Easier to just gather if want everything not in the scratch cards, just focus star items if got a Miner/Bot 80 & just kill the mob that drops +20 like for miner kill the Titan looking Golems only, I make around 3K scrips a full lockout.

Seems pretty fun to me.

I honestly hope they keep this style of recipe going into the future because it makes having good gear a lot more beneficial and also hopefully makes it impossible for people to automate the crafting of items with bots due to the amount of forethought that's needed to reliably max out the quality.

Uhm, don't you mean "Macros"?

Uhm, don't you mean "Macros"?

We already know macros don't work, but bots aren't out of the question because they aren't locked into a single sequence of actions like a macro and already vary skill usage based on item quality (Mostly for the sake of not botching crafts by using byregot's under poor condition)..
