It takes 30 seconds and almost as many clicks to do something that should only take 3 seconds and 1 click. Is it really so unthinkable that people might want to repair all their gear at once? Why is it so annoying and time consuming to do so?
No, I just feel people want everything to be easy and fast.
- It takes longer than 1 sec? What a chore!!
Yeah, actually. This game's UX is the weakest point and it has many little things that take more time than they need to. They developed features without a UX to properly support it and it adds up to be increasingly grating to manage.
I don't agree with it being it's weakest point. There is always a way to improve it, but it has one of the best UX in an MMO.
It's already 7 years old, so of course some things don't age well. But I'd rather have other things improved than the mender.
Many more things take a lot of clicks, the mender is just a few.
Sign. Really don't get why this hasn't been added. Almost every single other modern game I can think of with gear durability has a button to fix all your shit at once; there is no reason why this game can't also have one.
It's IMO already bad enough for gear durability to exist in a video game to begin with (there are points where chasing too much realism in video games is a bad thing that impacts the fun/enjoyment, and this crosses one of those points), but if you must have it, at least don't make it a chore to handle.
Yes, I would.It takes me about 30 secs top to repair everything. Would you really prefer a developer spending more time to dig back into the code so you can save 30 secs every few hours/days?
What kind of silly question was that?
This game has one of the most frustrating and excessively click-bloaty interfaces of any MMO I've personally played and it's always been near the top of my list of complaints about the game. The repair system is just one of a long list of issues it has, and fixing it would just be one of many QoL improvements I'd love to see in the interface.I don't agree with it being it's weakest point.

While they're at it, remove dark matter from the game and make it a direct gil cost.
Fine, l agree. Just remove every requirement on everything.
Make the game easier, so that I can get everything I want in seconds.
The new relic is a great improvement, let's hope the rest of the steps are easy too.
Gear durability in MMOs isn't about realism, it's about having an easy to implement gli sink. Same reason we have MB and teleport fees.
Let's actually type every command in chat to move an item to the left or right, that's somehow will made a game harder.
This is needed QoL that they need to implement. But outdated UI is kinda japanese fetish at this point, so I don't think they'll ever make it better.
