I dont know if someone suggested it already but along with this change it would be nice to see the repair status bar in the item icons that are in your armoury chest, like when you have it equiped, for a faster and easy look of what to repair.

Why? That repair menu is next to pointless now, well, the drop downs are since iirc it opens on Equipped.
With the ability to repair gear without switching class, you can just repair gear when it needs repairing. There is no real need to go through the menus looking for specific gear to repair. Just switch to whatever class you're using, repair whatever needs repairing, and when you switch to another class that may need some repairs, do the same.
The only possible reason to repair ahead of time is if they don't allow gear repairs in instances, which would be silly so I guess I shouldn't entirely rule that out... I guess it wouldn't hurt to just order things by damage rather than name/slot though.
Man oh man! The good news for repairs just keeps coming! I think you’re all going to like this one a lot too…
In patch 2.28, as long as you fulfill all the requirements for repairing, you’ll be able to repair equipment you are currently wearing as well as equipment that is in your Armoury Chest. Additionally, there will be an option to repair all categories of equipment.
Oh yeah, also, you’ll be able to repair while in dungeons and other content! :)
Heh, I figured that bit was at least implied, but it's good to have confirmation anyway. That's been the huge thing I wanted for repairing. Of course, the funny part of all this is that I finally gave up on dealing with self-repairs and threw away all my dark matter a few weeks back, around the time this thread was made.
OMG I love you SO MUCH, THANK THE TWELVE!
P.S. Thank you SE, it seems you're really coming around to 'giving the players what they want', there was a while there it seemed you guys just kept saying no to everything; it was starting to become a pretty bad stereotype it seemed.
So I'm very glad you guys are saying "yes' more often now it appears :) we all appreciate it.
Just give us a way to filter out the gear that is only damaged 5% or so, and it'll be gold lol. This update is Christmas day woo! Excited.
