When crafting resources has anyone found a way to make high quality. All sites say that their are HQ versions of gems, handles, equipment heads, ect but how exactly do you get them? I have tried to just bust thorugh bold the entire sync not worrying about how durable the item is, I have tried being conservate and using bold when it won't hurt durablity as much, and i have tried using High Quality items to start with to give me improved quality and durablity, 99% of the time i just end with a basic item as if i just using standard the whole time with no concern about how it ends up. There has to be a way to get these HQ upon completion if they are availble and usable to make finsihed products.

For BSM using the Off hand tool will result in HQ equipment heads, nuggets, and such while the Main Tool will, if HQing increase the number of the results. I believe that the same applies to the other crafts depending on the tool used. As for the exact science to getting them as a sure thing, that is still up in the air (Haven't done much research though on other sites but I believe that is the main consensus).

I am not sure if this applies to gems, but when I do Carpentry or Weaving, at the end of actual equipment synths I get an option to 'Touch Up'. Using that will occasionallyconvert a NQ item into a HQ. You can use 'Touch Up' multiple times on the same synth (until durability is depleted) and each attempt can potentially HQ.

The touch up actually only becomes available when you are doing a finished piece of equipment, weapon or tool. I'm more interested in trying to get the Hq supplies that you put together for the finsihed product?
