[SUGGESTION] New option - "Refine ALL"

I usually spend about 2 hours (or more) to refine all raw materials. Yes i have 10k+ of each type. And i do it usually once per month.
So, i understand the beauty of refining process - you can see how you get new crafting materials from refinement perocess, beautiful animations and you (maybe) like it and become happy.
But, if you play this game long enough... no comments.
In short - when we will get the possibility to SKIP animations and do refinement process in batch?
PS: I know about "Multicraft" addon and use it, of course.

    On PC we can set for refining if all stacks of a specific type of material since we have addons.

    When Zos chose to delegate building out the he UI to the player community (on PC) they really sold consoles short.

    Umm, don't let your raw materials stockpile?? Whenever I do my daily crafting writs, the first thing I do is process any raw mats. I don't ever have more than 200 unless I'm actively farming mats.

    Yes, refine (x amount) and instantly craft (x amount) are things that should really be part of the base game UI.

    it would be nice. But I usually refine everything when i am deconning useless gear for the day. The only time i really have a stockpile is after i do the surveys.

    Not everyone has access to addons. And addons shouldn't be seen as valid UI solvers for the game.

    Why ppl dont read 1-st post or dont remember what they have read it?
    Main problem is: TIME. 2 hours+ to refine all raw materials. That can be solved by adding 1 new function: for ex: RefineRawMaterials(tradeSkillId, bagId, slotId, amount) - something like that.

    I agree. I don’t have as many raw mats as you, but it can take me 10 mins of jamming the button while I do something else. This should be fixed by better UI.

    Why WOULDN’T I “refine all”??

    Come to think of it - maybe there should be a “crafting” discord and crafting class rep to collect such feedback ?

    I would appreciate such a feature. ESO's UI is an inefficient rsi-inducing usability nightmare, so anything to reduce clicks would be welcome.

    no.

    i refine what is required for the days writs.

    if i am going to craft gear for alts (a rare occurrence) i will refine what's needed.

    otherwise it's all kept raw, it sells better.

    UI needs a complete rework. Together with many things like group finder, add trials maybe hello and DSA. Some QoL DLCs would be more welcomed. Sad that add-ons can do things ZOS is just lazy to do. After some years they added trait checking atleast.

    Everyone knows the most fun parts of this game are refining your materials a little at a time, crafting your potions in small batches, and searching through individual traders one at a time to find the item you need.

    What you speak of is madness!
