I'm not really sure what toy don't like about it tbh.
Between the farming and the melding it is an unnecessarily tedious process just to eek out a few extra stats, that you then need to reverse and repeat every time you get slightly better gear.

If it were a simple slot-swapping system I wouldn't mind as much but the actual melding process, between the animation delays and the failure chances...it's just not a feel-good mechanic. But I have that issue with several things in the game like crafting and desynth. Actions that require a lot of repetition and just become tedious because of being locked to animations.
