Refine until out of wards:

Refining with a 3% (or even 5%) chance takes a while if you are using preservation wards and it is kind of depressing as you have to sit around and watch yourself fail upgrade after upgrade, 1 upgrade at a time. I would much rather have the option to either select how many wards it tries to use (so it keeps attempting an upgrade automatically until those wards are consumed) or have a button that keeps attempting upgrades until out of wards. Preferably, it just runs the calculation very quickly and displays something like: "Failed 17, succeeded on try 18, 13 wards left." This would be a lot less depressing to everyone upgrading things.

    I'd only use it if you were able to set the number of tries and I would only use 5-10 at once.

    It sucks to keep getting rejected. But with my luck, or with the horribly rigged RNG, a stack of 99 wards would be consumed instantly and the 20% upgrade would still not be done.

    Also on success the bloody thing shouldn't remove the wards ! Especially now that there is no need to drag RP. You press
    few dozen wards, you get success, next one it auto fills because you have RP and it will fail with the ingredients.

    And when it's r12+ you end up like this:


    +1 hilarous but soooo true :D:D:D:D

    I like the idea and have presented it myself. That said, I would RATHER they just discontinue the ward system and just up the cost of marks proportionally, and remove the RNG altogether. They cost enough as it, no need to add RNG to it.

    They really just need to make changes to the ward system. It is frustrating and a waste of time I'd rather spend playing and the randomness of it all means you can use 70 wards on one enchantment and get nothing because you run out (as I did trying to upgrade a rank 13 the other day). I'm not complaining because other 13s upgraded easily and faster than they should but tbh you are still left with a bad taste in your mouth and lots of real time and money wasted.

    eliminating rng alltogether would be even better.
    and: indeed, refining as is (with rng and preservation wards) is depressing. stress. no fun.
