    Is there a way to Synthesize a bit quicker?

    Forgive me for asking, but I was wondering if there was a way to mass produce items, at a quicker rate.
    Say I have 100 moko grass, and I want to make hempen cloth.

    I don't mind doing them individually, but I become rather irritated when I finish one and have to reset the material, and do to that 50 times over.

    100 grass > 50 yarn > 25 cloth

    Is there a way to do it, like when doing a request, it just says askes if you want to continue, then you can go again.

    Sorry for the stupid question, I hope I don't sound too lazy.

    There's a "Recipes" option at the top of your crafting screen that will let you choose from your most recently-used recipes.

    Use the hasty Hand skill to easily and quickly complete lower-level syntheses. If you do it with higher level ones, you'll usually break them.

    I'm pretty sure you can do 3 at once with fiber -> yarn and yarn -> cloth.

    E.g. Do 6x Moko Grass -> 3x Hempen Yarn (twice), then 6x Hempen Yarn -> 3x Hempen Cloth.

    Hasty Hand and/or rapid synthing, but you want to be well above the item's level to do it. Also keep in mind which tool you're using, primary or secondary. Depending on the craft, one will give you +1 items when you HQ, the other will double your results when HQ.

    Hope that helps.

    I wish for all the mass produce items that are bases for all synths... like moko grass, cotton balls, hempen yarn, cotton yarn... After you finish one, it would pop up like in a leve and ask if you want to do the same synth again. It is very slow and tedious just to do that, especially with the UI responses sometimes.
