i need to avoid Alteration reroll cus my Hand hurts. Intentional?

so im still trying to reroll vaal axes with %physhybrid + flatphys or %phys
and over the last weekend i've rolled over 10k alterations and wasted like 4 hours only so the recombinator could swallow one of my axes with the most rare mod.
so is this what i am suppose to avoid by "design"? is this intentional?

please consider reworking this since im also not allowed to use autoreroll scripts that looks for open prefixes cus i allready talked to the support about it.

So at first what do you want
1) QoL to make rerolling with alts easier?
2) Imporving recombinator odds?

Second, i know it's not a solution for things above. But why do you care about this bad recombinator? As i understand it swallows huge amount dust + gold + you efforts finding bases + lots of alts - for very little chance to success.

You can get desired axe by just buying fracture axe %physhybrid and slam T1 flat essence. There many ways to craft it, but fracture one mod + essence/fossil anyway will be much more efficient, then current recombinator. At least this is what i think after watching some videos and reading some topics about current recomb.

Lets us tick the roll we look for in a box and reroll till you get it or the orbs run out. not having to individually click each orb but make a change bot or something
I've been saying this for a long time, we need a way to craft affix combinations onto an item in one click as long as we can pay the appropriate cost.

i.e If a target affix combination would require 2k alt rerolls then instead of having to click the item 2k times we should have a button that allows us to craft those mods with one click and costs 2k alts. Or 3k alts for what i care.

Alt spamming, or currency spamming in general is an incredibly boring, depressing and unfun way to spend time and extremely detrimental to ones hands since RSI is bound to come visit if you do it often.

Spamming is somewhat fine if you have an automatic stop like with 6 linking where you can just hold down the button while watching TV until the result you want shows up but click, check, click is beyond retarded.

Spam clicking currency is one of those dumb and outdated mechanics that GGG insists on keeping in their game because they somehow think the economy would collapse if people didn't have to make themselves go through frustrating and unfun mechanics in order to create something. It makes no sense whatsoever. It should have been addressed years ago.

Agree with others. Having are window, where you can choose desired mods (with "AND" and "OR" condition) and use currency until you get it or run out of currency will be cool. For example CraftOfExile Simulator works like this.
+1 Othwerwise few individuals will write some kind of script that does that for them(aka cheating) so you might aswell offer every player some kind of device where you can insert desired mod + desired minimum tier and roll for it with 1k alts and then you either hit or you rebuy...Device could be unlocked in endgame like a voidstone, so that it doesn't confuse campaign enjoyers that just check out the game for a while...
Add more of the normal crafting methods to the crafting bench (akin to the Scour/Chance QoL change).
Never forget the Alt Qual Gem deletion, the Ex > Div swap and loss of various crafting methods.

Revive Metamorph/Crucible. Refine Sentinel/Kalandra content. Bring back legacy modifiers/values.

Where's my EShroud buff?
aren't you now able to just ctrl+click and hold down to spam alts? I'm sure its riskier but can save some pain in the long run.

Doesn't excuse the abysmal system that exists in the first place, but its at least a bandaid.

TBH, if I'm attempting a craft that I know is going to be hell spam...I always pay the premium to either buy or create a fracture. Significantly reduces the effort, and can also pay for itself if you get a good intermediate roll.
Starting anew....with PoE 2
imo its long overdue for this alteration spam to change. there is no reasonable argument for alteration spam items over 10k times and turn the game off being frustrated, knowing that i've spend so much time rerolling items to get specific results and it all was in vein.
