when they released the new crafting/gathering gear...Follow
we're there also new recipe books that were added as well? or do we automatically have access to the newest crafts (and just need the new gear to be able to achieve them)?
Yes. Remember those previously-unHQable tokens you needed to turn in for the i75 crafting main hand tools? You now need to HQ five to get the 4-star crafting books; which is where the recipes for the new gear reside.

I'm working on that part for ltw right now, and I'm not sure if it only applies to that job, but it only requires me to HQ 3 of them. They may have decreased it in the last patch. Doesnt make it any easier though, pretty much demands a HQ hippogryph leather strap and two fieldcraft demimateria III per water logged HQ strap, and even with 450+ craft 420 control and 485 cp after food, I'm still reclaiming 9/10 times due to the stupid RNG.

Well RNG is horrible in this game especially cause so much rotations rely on hasty touch.
Put steady hand two up and should give you I think 10 percent chance of hasty touch failing and it will fail 4 or 5 times in a row. I think the percentage on hasty touch is way wrong. I have heard others say it too..
Funny this weekend Tesee and I were crafting and melding gear. I was melding some materia and the success rate was was I think either 33 or 36 percent for that slot and I went through 17 materia and still had not got one to stick.. She goes the people who thought of this being a good idea and programed this stuff must have been real idiots. LOL

It feels like a 30% with SH2 up...

Been there. Burnt 750k once to stick a crit III on the 10% fifth slot. Went through something like 20-25 materia.

Yeah, I got it a bit backwards. It's five NQ tokens for the i75 main hand tool, and 3 HQs for the 4-star book. OOPS

Oh man last night I had a 24 percent chance to meld materia.. I had 16 and went through all of them, bought 2 more still no go.. Tesee gave me I think 4 and it went on the last one. She did hers and it melded the first time..
I was wrong on my numbers.. SH2 and hasty touch is 50% and 30% percent so that 80 percent so around 20 percent chance of failing..
