Nick,

As per my suggestion in the last twitch stream, here is my suggestion/request.

Auto-rune crafter:
Enable a feature at the Alchemist that will automatically craft the selected rune until it is successfully crafted.

I think my words could be confusing, so maybe think of it as an auto rune combiner.

I'm not asking for a feature to create any/all/or some random runes.

I envision this feature as a tick box or two that has a few options to help automate the rune crafting procedure, to avoid lengthy delays in combining/crafting a rune due to the rng rolling for success rate.

I'd like an option for the auto-combiner/crafter to use luck spheres or not (this might be harder to implement since there are many different percentages of them, but there are ways that can be done like selecting a percentage of luck chance to hit that the auto-crafter would use the correct sphere).

Essentially the auto-combiner/crafter would just keep attempting to make the rune until it was either successful or until it ran out of gold to perform the successful attempt.

Taking this one step further I'd like to see:
1) Making multiple runes of the same type - ex set auto combiner to make 10 small augmented runes of mana
2) Automate the whole process = select the amount of and type of rune, and the fully automatic procedure will craft and combine all ingredients and runes to make the amount of the targeted final rune. Eg - simply just having gold and rune dusts in inventory, set auto mode to create 30 Large Augmented runes of the void. The auto-crafter combiner would create all the required dusts and runes then combine them all, without intervention of the user.


I ask for this because Alchemy is a really grindy process, one in whcih takes a lot of time waiting for the game and server to make 1 single rune, which becomes extremely tedious and frustrating when having multiple failures in a row of trying to a make 1 simple small rune and having it fail at 80-90%.

I'm 'lucky' in so much my game play is setup that I don't have to worry about gold to make runes. I just want something that saves time and is efficient. It's a very tedious and boring aspect of the game to get stumped by failures making simple runes. I'm fortunate that I figure out how to do runes in a such a way that I only have to waste about 30 mins once a month to make the runes I need.
