Would be a nice option if we had a select all for deconning items

Deserrick · April 12

Yes. In the meantime, I recommend the Personal Assistant addon, but I don’t know if it’s available for console.

How would that differentiate the things in our bag we don't want deconstructed?

The deconstruct already ignores locked items and anything you normally can't deconstruct in your bag... Lol

Just because something isn't locked doesn't mean we want to deconstruct it.

Then you can ignore the select all?

I know this but that isn't what I am referring to. What if I wanted to sell some items but choose deconstruct all out of habit before listing them? Things like this would happen.

Too much possibility for accidents IMO.

you could just unselect those items or sell first

Idk how considering it would be a separate option that you can choose to select, just like the "ignore items in the bank" option.

Not to mention, doesn't deconstructing already ask you to "make sure" if you want to do so, as to prevent accidents? Like they already have precedent for accident prevention I'm not sure why you're trying to argue this...

That would be ideal but we know accidents will happen. Which would lead to tickets being opened to restore items, etc.. There is just too much room for error.

If you know you are prone too error then don't use it.

All because you don't like an idea doesn't mean it isn't a good one.

There would literally not be any more room for error than there already is? There is literally a prompt preventing you from accidentally deconstructing stuff. So that's literally two accident prevention steps they've taken. If you care about something a lot, lock it. If you don't want to deconstruct it, it'll ask you if you to CONFIRM if you want to deconstruct it and you have a second chance of saying no when it prompts you to be sure.

What more of a crutch do you think you need?

These things will stay the same if they added a select all option, because it would literally be an option just like "show all items in bank" except I assume you could also still deselect stuff after the select all button. These arguments make no sense.

A "Deconstruct All" would be nice. I'd use it. I'd love to be able to tab over to the Glyphs tab of the deconstructor and deconstruct all in one swift motion.

I serioiusly doubt it would be a one-click-oopsie! design. I'd be content with a simple dummy-check mechanic.

It could be added as a "Select All" option on the current "Select" button, as we already have the button to deconstruct all selected items. So on console that would be two press-holds and done. I think that would reduce the risks associated with having a single "select all and deconstruct" button. Seems like a good idea.

Yup. Should be easy peasy! An addon for it would likely happen sooner (if it hasn''t already).

On PC, I use the "Lazy Deconstructor" addon and it selects items according to the rules I set up. Works great!

Wile comodity is important crafting is perhaps one of Zenimax most oveloocked aspects of this game.

The main priority for crafting are surveys. I'm a master angler with every zone completed but ptcking up an infinite number of surveys is so incredibly boring.
It's the most tedious activity in the game and sadly can't be solved with an addon.

Master crafters need some rewards and overall objectives too since the master crafting stations can be used by everyone.

Oh I dunno about that. Murf's Treasures to get there quick, and Reset Markers to blast out a stack, and I can knock out a couple weeks worth of surveys jiffy spiffy!

I think being able to break down furnishings would be good.

Soarora · April 13

Not something I’d use but I could see the benefit for other people.

Necrotech_Master · April 13

ive considered using a select all for deconstruction, i typically lock everything im planning on keeping, and i also usually visit the merchant first for repair/auto selling junk (which includes ornate items)

usually i tend to keep my inventory clean for the most part so i dont usually have to do much decon to begin with, so if im only selecting like 10 items for decon, it doesnt bother me to select them manually

but there are times when i have more items to decon than the decon assistant even allows (the maximum number of items you can decon at once is 100 for those who dont know lol)

Many mods that can do that, one of the best ones already mentioned in the thread

Thalmar · April 13

This is a really good improvments for the crafters. Clicking on every item is really time consuming process. I realised that when I saved hundreds of glyphes to level up one of my alts and I needed click or chose every single of them...

I think it was in Diablo that we can choose color specific (quality of items) items for deconstructing, ex: only green or blue items to prevent some accidents on the process of deconstruction.

Yes, I am aware.

I prefer not to use to many mods has they can slow down ones game.

There have been times when they have added something to the game that's available in mod form.

It shouldn't be too difficult an option to add either.
