Old 4.3 Crafting Progression
Simulator
Introduction
4.4 introduces a new tier of crafted combat gear (iLvL 380, rLvL 380), and new materials. Beyond that we also see the introduction of mannequins that allows crafters to sell a set on the market board at a time. We are also getting new materials on existing nodes. Not much has changed for crafters, if at all, this patch.
If you have any questions contact me on Discord [sky#9999] or tag me in the Balance Discord: [@brojobs]
We see two tiers of recipes this patch:
[35 Durability]: 2486 Progress, 21138 Quality
[70 Durability]: 3729 Progress, 29529 Quality
In this guide you’ll see [Legacy] macros. These are macros that are mostly eclipsed by others in this very same guide, so usage of them are minimal.
Gearing
The new minimum stats is 1650/1600. We recommend getting 1680 Craftsmanship, 493 CP in addition as it helps you meet minimum requirements for the most important macros.
[Recommended Cheap 1680/1600 Stat Set]
This relatively cheap meld variant is recommended if you don’t mind getting some HQ mats to craft endgame recipes.
[Max Meld 1680/1810 Stat Set]
This highly expensive meld variant is recommended if you intend on crafting rlvl 380 recipes with non-specialist macros.
[Comfy Medium Option 1680/1730 Stat Set]
This somewhat expensive meld variant is just enough to craft current end-game recipes without any HQ materials with specialist macros.
Credits to Ari on The Balance Discord for these gathering meld variants:
[95%/15% 1650/1650 Gatherer Set]
This somewhat expensive meld variant allows you hit 1650/1650 without food.
[1650/1482 Set for 95% Gathering Rate]
If you do not need HQ materials, this meld variant focuses on yield rate.
[Legacy] [Max Gatherer Set]
This set is most likely overkill since we are unlikely going to get a new tier of gathering nodes.

Gathering Rotations (Optimized for 4.3 currently)
Credits to FisherRyu for the improved Triple IA2 Rotation
The most optimized ephemeral rotation is hands down the Instinctual Appraisal variant unless you have a very high perception (1943 for 2* nodes, 1686 for 1* nodes). The key strength of the rotation over the Impulsive variant is that it will almost never create a situation wherein you have to refresh the node, which synergizes with the optimal strategy of constantly refreshing for +1/+2 gathering attempts:
Ephemeral Node Strategy
- Check the node. See if it has a +1/+2 gathering attempts bonus.
- If it does, wait for enough GP to execute the 600 GP ephemeral rotation. Use the threshold 360, other thresholds are suboptimal.
- If it doesn’t, check your GP and the time remaining.
- If your GP is nearly capped, execute the ephemeral rotation. This is more optimal than refreshing the node.
- If the time remaining is under 1 minute and you have enough GP, execute the ephemeral rotation.
- Otherwise, leave the node and visit two other sets of nodes to refresh the ephemeral node.
- Repeat.
