So, I got a BL key from map completion today and opened one of the ‘new’ BL chests.
The Boost Enchantment Powder looks nice, since it enables me to transform the useless Armor Boosters (who needs 5% less damage anyway) into something more useful.

But I found 2 things to be very inconvenient:

For one, it doesn’t let me choose which booster to transform. I had a Crafting Booster from the same chest in my inventory, got the Armor Boosters from my bank, double clicked the Powder and expected some dialogue window where I could choose which one to transform – no.
It just transformed my Crafting Booster into the multi-purpose-booster thingie. But I wanted to keep that?
Why can’t you choose which one is transformed? Do you really have to sort your inventory and make sure you only have one booster type before using that? Hardly convenient.

Secondly, albeit minor, when you activate the booster, you can select the type (see, there’s a dialogue window!), but upon accepting you immediately activate the chosen booster. Again, it’s only minor, but why doesn’t it just return a booster of specified type so I can stack it with the others I already have in my bank? The MF recipe that allows you to merge Boosters into a Booster pack (which I find incredibly useless, I might add) will return the boosters, too, not activate them.

At least the first thing should be adressed if you want the Powder to become a thing, I find.

Yah if you have a more than one type of booster in inventory it will convert one at random. Just have the booster that you want to convert in your inventory and put any others in the bank. It stacks with itself. I guess they think people will get lots of these and convert various boosters over to this to get one stack of enchanted boosters.

What’s going to be a pain is if don’t have any boosters and you get a key. You open a chest and get the powder, a booster that you don’t want to convert and then 2 sets of additional powders instead of the other items like scraps or bank accesses.
