True rapid and synth is good for those recipes that you are higher rank than, but theres no reason for them to have higher fail rates at all since they already have their own penalties over using standard synth.

Just because you use HQ mats doesnt mean you will get HQ return. 400+ quality 5 times in a row yielded NQ all times when making something 35 ranks below me (Iron Nuggets). Finished items are much different. using touch up is the same as 'Refinishing' an item, so you get extra chances to generate the HQ process. Materials don't have this ability. They are a hit or miss, weather you have high quality or not. And you can HQ things with way less than 100 quality. The problem is the quality doesn't determine the probability that the item will HQ. it is all just RNG on that part. If materials and parts had touch up as well, there would be much less of an issue with all this.
