RNG was not on your side my friend
Ill give you a hint… dont use only pure boons… that is if your having issues with the forge not getting what you want. Its about a rotaion and using more than just 2 of the ingrediants. Hence why they have so many of them. If your not having issues then tbh i cant really tell what your saying is cheating.
Its not hard to answer your question.
Because your way is outdated.
Yes the new method still rely on rng, but you can get much higher rank with the state you want on it.
The old method after they nerfed pure boon compound 3 twice, its just not worth to use it anymore.
The new method is more complicated, but totally worth.
Check the following article, you can learn the new way to forge.
At least, 90% of my gear are around rank 320 - 360 (aoe hammer with damage lvl 9 + lvl 6-8 action speed or durability) Weapon can be around 360 - 390 (depends on rng)
And your way can only get the gear below rank 300, only if you are super lucky, you have chance to hit rank 310 or slightly higher number.
next best thing from forge i test with my last 2 diamond hammers again i have lvl 4 aoe (3x3) hard hits lvl 3 and effect really super i lucky but now 
in my last round i hit max boon and i have lvl 5 aoe 100% dmg but random effect and ranom is 2-4 block and total chaotic its super useless OMG i stop play this alpha unbalanced and for new players total unfriendly (game?)fallout 76 wait and minecraft 4k same .
