In principle, one can tune 34edo by ear using only 5/4-limit intervals, using the fact that 17edo is very close to a circle of seventeen [[25/24]] chromatic semitones to within 1.5 cents, and using a pure 5/4 which is less than 2 cents off for the second chain. The tuning error, assuming everything is tuned perfectly, will be 3.5 cents overall.

The tuning error, assuming everything is tuned perfectly, will be less than 3.5 cents overall, or relative error of less than 10%.
