    Repairing seems so useless right now.

    Repairing is so cheap now, and so tedius, why even bother having it in the game? You can't request repairs from people. You can't repair your own stuff because you can't change jobs in a dungeon/raid, so what is the point in it?

    It removes very little gil from the game. Make every mob drop 1 less gil and get rid of gear wear entirely. All it is, is an annoyance that's not really removing a lot of gil. Adjust other things to remove the gil not removed by removing repairs from the game.

    And imo, buying a house for 800,000, and buying crafter gear that costs 4000+ etc etc is a way better removal of gil than the repair system. It's frustrating to have to repair at all.

    If you don't remove it, at least give us a "Repair All" button on their so we can repair every single piece of gear we own in one shot.

    Better yet, if you don't remove it. Just give everyone the ability to repair without leveling a craft and make it cost 50% more if you do it yourself, and cheap like normal if you use a vendor.

    They NEED to streamline repairing. You shouldn't have to change your class to repair stuff. Especially when you're a Miner or Botanist and something breaks, if you want to switch to a crafting class to repair it, you lose ALL your GP, and that recovers really slowly.

    Plus like you said, because of how inconvenient the current system is, we can't repair in dungeons. It's not even good to repair between FATES because of how long the cooldown is when you switch classes.

    They ABSOLUTELY have to change the system so it checks your crafting levels without making you change your class, so you can repair anything no matter what class you are as long as your appropriate crafting class is high enough and you have the tools and Dark Matter in your inventory.

    With the current nonsensical system, which is the result of poor programming, player repairs are almost worthless.

    It's just a holdover from 1.0 (where it was still tedious). Hopefully they just drop it all together in the future.

    With this character's death, the thread of prophecy remains intact.

    It's pretty frustrating when you are in an instance and you get the message that item XYZ's condition has dropped below 10% and you have the class to fix it but can't...

    I would only ask they allow you to repair while you're in dungeons. I remember my days spamming Castrum when I was in the middle of the instance and all my accesories got broken and then the rest of my equipment a bit later. I had to ask the OT to become the MT while I was sucking trying to endure until the dungeon was over... -.-

    But regarding the repair costs and the money in-game... remember when people weren't able to get cash and repairing was the main reason of bankrupt? Pepperridge Farm remembers.

    It just seems like its not much because gil production was increased a fair bit when they added gil drops to dungeons. Before they nerfed repairs and added the gil drops a lot of non-hardcore players couldn't keep any money in their pockets.

    There you go, I've fixed it for you. Please, let me submit my humbles apologies to you, the person who does nothing wrong ever. Unless, that is, it requires grammar or proper sentence construction.
