Probably this one.

I wouldn't just go with well jp book says so must be true... I mean surely there is some real testing on it no?
Not as far as I know, same story with rusks improving HQ rate. JP reference a book, taken as law.
Thanks for the link, was hoping I could find it by searching NA amazon, translating the page isn't having a whole lot of luck. Where would a book such as this gather it's information from? Do these guides have contracts with square enix in which they are provided "confidential" information?
edit: also, how does this type of guide differ from the Brady Guide that was filled with such terrible information?
AFAIK these arn't different from Brady Guide in terms of how "official" their information is, so their info is basically about as reliable as a player's. They probably do actual testing to some degree.
Though, I think something a lot of people tend to forget about the Brady Guide was that it seemed like the guide was written with something like a level 60 cap in mind (or at least it felt that way, especially given the item lists in the back), and it didn't have a lot of actual outright false information; it's just that it's kinda pointless to write a guide for an online game if you don't plan on being as up-to-date as possible.
I've only tried coconut so far. I was planning on basically putting up all my parses at once... but expansion kinda put things off. Mind you this was just for a single craft T1 recipe with just 1 HQ so for those people who claim different rusks effect different HQs I have no idea so far
Fair enough, look forward to the eventual sharing. Thanks
