Only one recipe has been revealed as of now, and as many zun recipes as there is...well
Anyways something I've been interested in is crafts that deviate from the basic rules.
Sometimes (usually discovered during drunken crafting sprees) sup grip/shaft mats seem to offer the greatest boost to the more weird amp combos out there, although it appears as a nerf in the precraft.
Anybody else notice silly stuff like this?

1) the (preview) x 0.8 + 20 = result stat
2) the max preview boost from focus alone to after adding shaft/grips seems to be 15... meaning if you want a 100/100 you need to start with an 85 or higher with just the amber/eyes/shrooms/buds... think you get the point;P
I am not sure what you mean in point 2 but as far as I know boost formula is nearly the same as precraft formula:
(preview + 20) x 0.8 + 20 = boosted result stats
20 been apparently the minimal stat that can be made.
So the extra stat is not linear but will depend of the preview stats...
Preview 60: ((60+20) x 0.8) + 20 = 68 boosted (8 added).
Preview 97: ((97+20) x 0.8) + 20 = 113 (113.6) boosted (16 added)
I think this work whatever you are crafting: PF for armurs, dmg for weap and so on (TBC)
Edit: I Re-read your post and I am talking about something different

If you're talking about rubarn boosts, that would be
(preview x 1.2) x 0.8 + 20 = boosted result stats

This could be a silly question but, how do you know the value of a postcrafted stat?
Let' say I'm crafting an armor and I've "protection" precrafted stat of 10, then I "know" that postcrafted it should be (10 x 0.8)+20 = 28
If now I look at the armor info window, what will be the number showed after "protection" ? Will it be 28% ?

precraft*0.8+20=postcraft is only valid for magic power/speed stats on amps as amps magic speed/power postcraft value range is 20 to 100.

The Formula is valid for all conversions. It's just a base value and a range value added to it, the preview numbers are just scaled to the range.
For Magic it is Base 20, Range 0-80, hence our "creepy" "mysterious" "legendary" "ultimate" formula that only "works" with amps.
For HP it's something like this Final = 100+0.9*Preview, no idea bout the range actually. Also depends on the plan used, every final stat has a base and a range, sometimes the base is 0 so the stat is scaled 1:1.
For Jewel resistance it's for example Final = 0 + floor(0.8*Preview), base is 0 but you never notice because the 3 highest values are chosen, you cannot end up with a 0 protection.
Just my 2 cents.

I'm curious to know if there's such a thing as +2 parry MA...and if it's possible to craft +1 dodge/+1 parry LA without boss mats?

MA no,
LA yes.
Though somewhat pointless imo, as you cant take advantage of dodge AND parry at the same time.
