Faster Mystic Forge options
I totally agree with this. Especially when crafting lots of lodestones or other legendary items or even just bulk items to flip on the TP. The Mystic Forge needs some serious work. QoL changes are needed. The ability to craft a recipe multiple times, a recipe list of recipes you’ve discovered, and crafting more than one item at a time. For the love of Dwayna, PLEASE!
A repeat last recipe button would be extremely nice to have

One of the reasons that certain mystic forge recipes remain profitable is that it’s a pain in the tail to use them. So I think ANet would have to review all the recipes with a couple of key principles involved:
- Does it really need to be mystic forge recipe? Perhaps anything with a guaranteed result should be moved to regular crafting, e.g. mystic weapons, legendaries, and promotions (although that last would need to given standard output amounts).
- For anything with a random result (rarity promotions, clovers), offer some sort of bulk option, including “repeat last recipe”.
- If economic considerations are important, they could offer a time-gated bulk recipe and the current single recipe. For example, we could be allowed to promote as many cores to lodestones as we like, if using the one-at-a-time recipe, but limit the use the “100 cores to 50 lodes” recipe to once per day.
Adding my two copper… A mystic forge merchant UI for those that have the Mystic Forge Conduit would be nice too. I have the thing to be able to MF stuff whenever I need to it kinda defeats the purpose of the convenience item if I have to go to the actual mystic forge just to buy something from the merchant.

I’m for loading up the mystic forge with mats and be allowed to keep crafting until there isn’t enough of something to continue. I promote fine mats every night to use my daily spirit shards. That’s 4 clicks to load for each promotion. If it didn’t clear each time I could load 3 of the slots up with dust, phil stones and output material once and load the input mat once for every 5 promotes. For me that would reduce the clicks from 120 (30 promotes) to 9.

I cannot believe it’s still like this, it’s sad. I haven’t played the game in almost 2 years now, but I was on since beta. I once made a few legendaries, OMFG I had to go see a doctor and buy a new mouse. not kidding. you’d think having a selector like in the crafting window would be a common sense update, but really, after all these years still nothing?

YES, we NEED a “Repeat last combination” button. Forging a bunch of Lodestones for some of the more expensive weapons is a real killer on my finger and my mouse. >.<
