Deconstruct all option?

Chicharron

Anyone know if there is any method, addon maybe to deconstruct all Blacksmithing, Clothing or Woodworking gear/weapons at once?

Not too sure, but I'd also like to say can we separate our bank from the deconstructing menu and have an option "In Inventory" or "In Bank" because I rarely decon due to the sheer amount of gear i keep in bank for potential builds and the risk of deconning items in there when I want to decon only inventory items

@Casterial - the only clue I think is available on the "in bank" or "in inventory" (on PC - don't know about console) is the little bank or bag icon to the right when you're in the decon screen. And at this point, I don't know if that's due to an addon, or is a vanilla UI thing.

I think its an addon, Ill double check. Please post your potential UI addons

Crafting Writ Assistant; GearSetsSort; Game Information; Advanced Filters Updated; Collection Bars; Dolgubon's Lazy Writ Crafter; Daily Provisioning; Daily Alchemy; WritWorthy - think that's the lot.

Assuming we're only talking PC, as I have no knowledge of console (and equally no knowledge of addons on PC), there is the opportunity to lock items so they cannot be deconstructed, and that applies to both inventory and bank. That deals with the issue of separating bank and inventory. I never transfer stuff to the bank without considering whether I need to lock it.

I think the major concern with a "deconstruct all" option would be the number of support tickets it would generate. That, I imagine, is why you can deconstruct multiple items at a time but need to select them all individually so that you can check each one before committing to it. Even so, judging by the forum there are enough people who deconstruct or delete items accidentally and put in tickets to get them back for ZOS to be justified in not wanting to exacerbate that problem. Doubtless it is addons that lead players into that particular trap - Reason #632 for not using addons !

Ah @Tandor
Someday you'll find the right addon. Don't give up. 🍺

@Chicharron
But I believe Tandor is right. You should be especially careful of mass deconstruction if you have a lot of gear you do want to hold onto.

Lock it. Take the few minutes of time for this, and you can confidently deconstruct everything else knowing that you couldn't decon something accidentally.

A select all item would be nice or at least if you click on the first item scroll to ther last item press shift then click the last item or even a cntl button feature.

I know there is a risk, but nobody will force us to use the option.

I have tied to my mause the option to destroy item (Junkee2018 addon) and many many times for not paying attention I have destroyed very valuable objects

The last one I remember was one Mother Sorrow's Inferno Saff, I was in a dungeon I needed space and I saw a green item = destroy, 5 seconds later I realized what I had done.

I do not have to ask for help to support, stupidity has a price, I accept the consequences.

@Casterial if you have gear you don't want to decon by accident lock it, then it won't ever show up on decon menu whether you have it in bank or inventory.

As for mass decon we already have the option to mark down several items and decon them in one go, personally I'd rather not it do that automatically.

Also, upgrading several items at once would be great.
It's tedious to craft a full training set in blue/purple..

I don't have any interest in them, never have had. Partly because I don't need them, the default UI is fine for me as is, and partly because I think the fact I don't use any is a significant factor in my not having had any significant performance issues since launch (not the only factor of course, but a significant one nonetheless).
