repair costs too much?

[Verecund]

Repairing at NPCs is a huge waste... but I've personally had no problems putting things up for repair for around 2-5k gil and asking around Ul'dah for repairs

so you have to be with in ten levels of an item's level to repair it? I should also try shouts in town to find a crafter until I sure up my craft levels?

unless its a rare item or an item people dont carry, repairs come very quickly with shouts, very very quickly

rare/hard to find as in weevil bows(crafters dont carry weevil elytrons)

and in the cases of those items, knowing that ahead of time and carrying them to give the crafter for the repair gets you a quick repair too


i sit at the repair npc for hours every day while i craft, and youd be surprised how little people wait for repairs(except for eva who sits there with a full inventory wondering why they arent getting repaired) and those who dont wanna pay for them

It's a waste of time...

if you playing gladiator you need to be r30+ blacksmith and armorer to repair your gears

then if you want to play archer you need to be r30+ carpenter

then if you want to play thaumaturge you need to be r30+ goldsmith

you have to be r30+ goldsmith anyway to repair your accessories

and r30+ weaver/leatherworker for your attires and shoes


ok, just separate these crafting stuff out of warrior life! I won't complain anymore

that's why I said this game forced you to craft no matter how much you don't want to

[TheVedis]

the real issue here is that eva lacks the ability to be social or make friends to get stuff done easily and freely

they want a SINGLE PLAYER GAME, which is what an MMO isnt

i think the op understands how it works by this point, right?

You are wrong on just about every question. For your current classes, you SHOULDN'T need a crafter above 27 at the most 32. Also, you aren't forced to craft, but you are forced to work as a community if you don't craft.

will you teleport to repair my gears anytime I call you?

i dont have to, im usualy in the same area as you, but as i said, your inventory has been full every time the last few days ive tried to repair you! thats no ones fault but your own.

and i suggest you get an actual shell who will help you if it matters that much or make these things we call friends. those help alot in getting things you want faster

[kanjitai]

I think I get what I need to do if I don't want to craft. Relying on NPCs should be my last resort if I can't find a player to help me.

yeah, very simple

1) set repair offer at reasonable price(5k usualy will get you what you need real easy per piece)
2) go to repair npc
3) make a shout of what you need(i usualy prefer people to be specific so they know exactly what you need) "Blacksmith repair rank 24 item, iron nugget, 5k reward at repair npc"

doing this you rarely wait more then a few minutes

if you want to repair while offline, put them on your retainer, in the menders ward and itl usualy be done when you come back online too


very very simple
