For example... at the moment I am forging 99 copper bars, I am unable to "view recipes" on the "Toggle show professions" screens, as at the end of every forge progress bar, the screens close themselves.

 

It would be nice to be able to browse these screens, while forging bars, crafting potions etc.. while we are waiting  :)

1) i agree

2) that sucks that we only can do 99 bar at the time

3)that processus is way too long. It takes more than a hour each time to makes bars when bp is full copper/bronze/coal etc

Think of the bright side.  A great time to catch up on e-mail, news, forums, and other sites, or in-game chat.  Or clean the kitchen, get some laundry done.  A person can keep very busy while making copper ingots :)

I sympathize with this point of view, I rarely do much crafting at all in games. But if crafting was always quick and easy everyone would be a master crafts person. There should be barriers to entry for things like crafting. And as with any other aspect of a game, if you don't enjoy doing it then just don't do it. Leave it to those that do and send your gold pieces their way when necessary. Below a certain threshold of time investment crafting might as well just be cut out of the game entirely.

I have no problem with the time it takes to forge bars etc, I have been trying out prospecting/armoursmithing and it seems fine. Nice that you have to put a little bit of effort in to get the rewards  :)

 

Just would like to be able to view Armorsmith Recipes etc while doing it!  :P

Agree that the time it takes is part of the game.  Also, consider the bought XP potions for that craft.  When you take them, the time needs to be filled with crafting activity for maximum utility. As it is, they are too long.  (1hr & 2hr potions?  Way too long. Should offer 1/4 and 1/2 hr potions for a correspondingly lower price.)

 

And yes, 3-digit counts in all processing/crafting windows (and of lesser importance in trade windows) has long been needed.
