There's a lot more work involved in the process than you give it credit for. It is not 'button mashing' in any way, shape or form. In fact, doing so will earn you nothing but a heap of slag.

Also, Dust of Visibility is very hard to make up until around levels 50-60. If you start on doing that recipe any time before level 30, you will almost always slag. When I did alchemy, it took me about 3-4k rubies. It sounds like an easy amount to acquire, but depending on how competitive the market gets for them, you could be at it for months or even close to a full year.

Be advised, though, that when I was doing Alchemy, I had my Int maxed out and was using a Cauldron +3, which gives a much better yield of dusts.

It isn't a bug. The exp for producing dusts just happens to be very high because you'll fail it constantly if you don't have the right stuff while doing it. It's not like leveling physical because you have to do a lot more farming and gathering instead of fighting. I've been through the whole process already, and can tell you that a lot of people quit even trying to do mental sometimes because it sucks so much time and cash out of you.
