20% chance of an upgrade, regardless of what you put in.Learn more at the wiki:https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mystic_Forge

If you put in 4 greens, you get something of the same value or better(rare). 4 rares = rare/exotic value. 4 exotics = exotic value.

Take note that it's possible to get lv75+ exotics even though the 4 exotics you placed is lv80s.(the generated item only gurantees the value not the level.)

Placing 4 identical item will give you the same item. (Eg 4 exotics sword = exotic sword. While X exotic swords + Y exotic = random exotic.)

There are some exact recipes - for example if you put a blue, green and gold rarity salvage kit in with 3 Mystic Forge stones you're guarenteed to get a Mystic Salvage Kit out. There's also several weapons made in the Forge and they have exact recipes.

But combining 4 weapons or 4 armour pieces is random. You're guaranteed to get something of the same rarity or better and close to the same level requirement, but that's it. Oh and you can specify a weapon or armour type by just using that - for example 4 greatswords will always return a greatsword. But that's it.

If you want good results the most important thing to remember is that the item type, rarity and level requirement are the only factors that affect the results. It doesn't care what the TP value is, if the item is part of a collection or some other 'set', if it has a unique skin or anything like that. Throwing in 4 precursors, or 4 of the most expensive named exotics will get the exact same results as 4 cheap crafted exotics.

I will also agree more or less that it was luck when you got the yellow item from four greens. Take a general understanding that you'll get roughly a 20% chance of getting one higher (but no higher than Exotic) from the result of your entries.

Also, a key thing to note, is that Mystic Forge Stone is an acquisition from achievement chests, and not only are they a component in Mystic Salvage Kits (basically a 250-use Master's Kit), a mystic forge stone can be used as a wildcard for equipment, and acts like a Lv.80 when it comes to calculating the output. So instead of 4x rare armor, you can use 3x rare armor + forge stone -- and you'll get a rare with a slight chance of instead an exotic.

As far as other things go: there are certain items you cannot reroll simply for the fact they're already best tier. You can reroll four sigils or four runes of minor or major quality, with a slight chance of getting a major or superior, respectively -- but you cannot roll superior runes/sigils.

Check this Wiki article for much more information on what you can do, generally, with the Mystic Forge.https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mystic_Forge

I learned this to my dismay. I'm outfitting with ascended gear, but I expected to at least get something decent for 4 of my lvl 80 exotics. I got lvl 76 exotic gloves worth 55 silver. Ugh.
