Please get rid of repairs.

Update:

Got all the gear repaired, and it only killed 3 hours of my sunday.

Saying something is good because it isn't as bad as it used to be is poor logic and never good game design.

Requesting or demanding something be changed because it doesn't fit your playstyle is never a good argument. If they decide to change it, fine, but if not, the game is just not for you. I play a game because I like it, but then if it ever changes to where I do not, I don't. And it annoys me when people ask to have a game changed to fit them, rather than find a game that fits.

Congratulations.

By the way, offering a decent amount of Gil as a reward instead of just returning the Dark Matter tends to work a lot faster.

People will help, and are more likely to do so if you make it worth their effort. If you don't want to use the NPC, you have to respect the other player's time instead.

This stuff has got to stop. It is in the way of me and fun on my day off. Standing around in Ul'dah waiting...

no I aint paying 5000 per item for 99%.

I know there are people that like the system. I hate it, and it will likely make me quit sooner rather than later.

Since you are from Balmung I will cut you a deal.! 4.5 k and I repair your stuff! No. Can't go lower.

The system allows for a constant flow of income for DoH jobs and encourages leveling in those classes. If its taking 3 hours to get your gear repaired either no one likes you or you are doing something terribly wrong.

Ya man! That income that the DoH gets is the best money eva!

But it will be changed, and the thing preventing enjoyment is the thing needing removed, see the dilema?

I wasnt respecting someone else's playtime? When did I write that?

you do realize that there are a lot of people clamoring over a death penalty in the game... this is part of the death penalty instead of deleveling your gear breaks faster... trust me it does i had gear repaired to lvl 99 did one or two leves died like 4 times because of a hoard of mobs attacking just one lone little drg and then bam all my gear was down too 20% or less soooo i'm still low level so all my gear costs less than 5k to repair but it still eats a hole in my pocket but I don't complain. I"m used to it I used to play Diablo 2 where your gear broke and when you died everything you carried on you dropped... so the repair system is fine to me
