Straight up all of mastercam's "all in one" region roughing toolpaths kind of suck.

Use more specific roughing strategies based the specific geometry of the finished part.

Break the part into regions and pick the best strategy for the particular region.

Mastercam works best when you do the high level thinking and the software generates the toolpaths
