The Mystic Forge is a valuable currency in Guild Wars 2, used in various recipes for legendary weapons and Mystic Clovers. Players can earn Mystic Coins through crafting, which can be converted into lodestones using spirit shards saved for mystic crystals. Crafting exotic max-stat weapons with 50 skill points is possible through the Mystic Weapon section.
The Mystic Forge is the entrance to the Elonian djinn Zommoros’ realm, a pocket dimension housing the djinn’s riches. Ascended weapons, armor, and certain attribute infusions can be replaced with new items with different stats via the Mystic Forge, which destroys the original items. The Mystic Forge is a gambling game, with a slim chance to cash out (getting a precursor). Results vary, and it is not worth flushing your exotics statistically.
The Mystic Forge is a special crafting station with access points in various locations and functions slightly differently compared to other crafting stations. Armor isn’t worth it, as there’s no precursor chance there. Low value exotic weapons (less than 2 G) can be gambled in the forge if you don’t get anything useful or valuable. Making these items will cost thousands of gold but are worth it as a long-term goal of progression.
Guides can be found around the topic of combining exotic armor and weapons, but it seems that you cannot combine them. Overall, the Mystic Forge is a valuable tool for enhancing your inventory and achieving long-term progression goals.

It also lets you put in most account/soulbound equipment, useful for transforming those levelup reward exotics or dungeon weapons/armor into things that can be salvaged or sold. Also used to transform karma into gold via forging up mid-tier karma armor to get linen/leather of the pricey tiers for only karma (and time).
Pro tip: There is a TON of exotic weapons with unique skins. So, you can unlock skins (maybe also remove sigils/runes with endless extractor and sell them on the tp) and then toss them into the mystic forge for some character value neutral gambling. Also helps with narrowing down options in Guaranteed Wardrobe Unlocks to the more expensive options. Using this, minus the upgrade extractor, I managed to get 2 cheaper precursors. If you happen to get Dusk/Dawn, all the more power to you. This also works with the rare weapons that have a lot of skins, though below that you might as well salvage. Note that there is a fair bit of filler skins, that can be gained from items worth a few copper-a few gold. Ps. Anet, please add a filter for locked/unlocked skins. Right now, it is hard to find more cheap exotic items with skins I do not have unlocked yet. Would also work wonders on Black Lion Skins.
I missed one thing here: Loadstone Crafting Combine Two Cores (t5), 1 Mystic Crystal, 1 T6 Dust and 1 Bottle of Elonian Wine to craft them into a loadstone To be fair, it’s not a profit on every loadstone, but there are some types where you can earn good cash by doing this. or if you need a specific type of loadstone and have lots of cores (t5)
Probably one “not so must know” recipe for the mystic forge is the recipe for the mystic forge itself. Yes, you heard right! You can make your own Mystic forge gizmo and carry it around in your inventory and use it anywhere. At least I found it quite useful before buying VIP pass as I didn’t always need to travel to LA.

3:50 Instead of four exotic weapons, you can substitute one of them for a Mystic Forge weapon and it will function as a random exotic weapon. Note: using 3 greatswords + mystic forge stone will result in a random weapon rather than a greatsword. Alternatively, you can use an ectoplasmic stone instead which has a chance of dropping the mystic infusion + exclusive exotic weapons.
So Clovers are pseudo-random and the 1 and 10 recipes are part of the same RNG pool so you want do 3 single clover recipes (assuming they fail) then do a 10 to have a much higher chance of getting the the 10. with this you can have about 60% return as oppose to a 33% return Edit: for spelling, will find link later.
Mystic forging amalgamated gemstones arent worth it at all though as you lose a lot of gold. 25 of all 4 orbs or crests costs about 8 gold plus 5 ectos cost about 1 gold and if u get only 10 gemstones you just lost 2 gold. For those who may contemplate doing it. Even if u have hundreds of orbs, sell them and buy gemstones.
