Please get rid of repairs.

[TokyieRage]

While were on the Subject, SE Please AT LEAST remove the penalty to not being able to sell or trade broken items. I mean just let the buyer repair it themselves, It's really dumb that I can't give my noob friend a piece of low level gear cause it's 98% durability.

SE PLEASE FIX THIS!

So you think there should be no penalty for dieing?
People need to have a reason to avoid death...if there's no penalty...the fear factor of dieing is pretty non-existent.

I'll take gear damage over xp loss any day. I dont particularly LIKE gear damage, but that's why I focus on staying alive. Yes, gear becomes damaged no matter what, but it's a weapon. In real life, would you have a sword all shiny and new, then use it a million times and still have it as shiny and new?

I may not love it...but for some reason I enjoy repairing my own weapons when I can.

Oh and guess what? Usually, when I go into primal runs, there's almost always another member who can repair at least some of my gear. So if I have gear that I cant personally repair, finding others to repair it hasnt proved particularly difficult to me.

But I guess that's just me and not you. So yeah, let's remove gear damage. Don't bring in xp loss for death either. That way if I die, no biggie~ just raise/return and try again. As a matter of fact, Let's remove weakness while we're at it. That's also a pain in the ass, isn't it?

Sorry...I feel like being bitchy right now.

Yeah removing all that crap would be great. If they have to have a death penalty make it just the weakness. That itself is bad enough not to want to die. And victory should be the only reason people need to stay alive.

You get the party full, make your way to boss, wipe, wait for weakness, make your way back. Why add on xp loss or gear repairs?

here te soultion get rid of repair bring back de leveling and just one whiner turns into the whole community

From the poll it seems most people are in favor the repair system since they didn't vote to make it easier to get repairs.

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.

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

You didn't write it explicitly.

But by only offering Dark Matter in return for repairing your gear, you are not giving them anything in return for helping you. You are asking them to help you for free, disregarding the amount of time and expense that they put into leveling up their craft.

I am simply suggesting that you could offer some reward other than the repair material itself, to show the crafter a little appreciation for their goodwill and the time it took them to get to that level.

OP you're complaining about 5k npc repairs? That's pennies in this game. You should be able to make millions, even without a craft leveled. Also the rate that gear degrades is so slow that you're making repairs once, maybe twice a week....

lol...

Repair gear every day after every raid on a tank class

Repair are perfectly fine. Also they should add a lost of experence on death. (keep the damage thing on gear too)

I carry the materia. I seek for repairs using materia as a reward. Seek while i wear and bazaar full of stuff. It is just annoying. And since i cant play in windowed mode, I cant really do anything else but log off.

Not gonna:
1.Craft
2.Spam "Please fix my stuff <pos>"
3.pay 5000 per

I assume you meant Dark Matter...
And there is your problem. Pay 500gil for each like a decent person and people will repair for you.

yeah, mistype.

I do offer 2 dark matter for every item seeking repair. It does seem to be enough to get repairs done. The problem is the crafters cant be put into my pocket and used at will.

In the old days, I rewarded people with 1000 gil for repair ^^

But you are right. Most people don't repair if they only get dark matter as reward. Because in every endgame content dark matter is trash drop.
