DoH Guide For Endgame Crafting Rotations 6.4
This guide has our current best endgame rotations for Patch 6.4 to go alongside our endgame meldsets also listed on the site.
Endgame Crafting Rotations Patch 6.4
Below is a range of endgame rotations for the current endgame gear crafts and other three-star items unlocked from Master Book X. You can purchase these books for 1200 white scrips from the scrip exchange in Radz-At-Han once you complete the quest "Expanding House of Splendors" from Ofpilona in Radz-at-han (x11.7, y9.5)
These macros are expected to be crafted using the meld sets from our endgame crafting melds guide. The rotations will list minimum requirements though so any other meld sets may also work.
Crafting Macros and Rotations for 6.4
Endgame Crafting Rotations for Patch 6.4
Recommended Macro for 35 Durability
This is our general use recommended macro for intermediate crafts. It has various breakpoints listed in the description depending on what food you want to use making it very flexibile and a good opportunity to use cheaper foods or foods you have in excess.

Recommended Macro for 70 Durability
Below is our recommended macro for 70 durability crafts and with our recommended meld set, only needs 2250 starting quality to guarantee 100%. This will generally be in the form of the Alkahests because they give three per craft, but you will still need a few other HQ mats if you do not hit 2250 starting quality.

Low Stat Macro for 35 Durability
This is a lower stat requirement for 35 durability crafts making crafts slower but allowing much lower stats. This macro does not use a CP draught so if you have lower CP than the minimum requirements you can add the draught to make up for that.

Foodless Macro for 35 Durability
This macro is a foodless 35 durability macro. It takes more steps than the recommended macro so it is slower but it has benefits such as being able to craft between nodes especially if you are using food on nodes and you do not want to replace your food buffs every node as that would get expensive.

Foodless Macro for 70 Durability
This is a foodless macro for 70 durability crafts and has quite low stat requirements. Mainly only to be used for food and pots, as while the rotation is fast, it costs you more in both time and gil due to how long it takes to make all the materials on non food/pot crafts.

1 Button Macro for Specialist Crafters
This macro is a single button macro only available to Specialists that allows you to craft any of the newest items with only one macro. It does, however, require every HQ mat possible on a craft so it should mainly be used for potions as they only have one material you can HQ.

70 Durability Macros for Indagators
This first macro is for the recommended set and allows you to 0-100% Indagators gear using food and draught. Alterations to the melds or specialist would allow you to do it without a draught if you planned to regularly craft Indagators.
