Repairing Repairs

[NoctisUmbra]

It's not about the branches man..

There "Solution" is causing more problems than its fixing.. Dev 101 Don't break more thing when you add something new.

Epic foresight approaching...

This is,

Destabilizing an already unstable economy

An economist. I would love to hear how you came to that conclusion without knowing the rarity of dark matter, the value NPCs will sell them for, and how often one will be able to keep it after repairing. Surely this must be an educated prediction rather than a pessimistic emotional response to change!

Hurting the Gathering Classes which they openly have no intention of supporting for a long time

* Dark matter can be obtained from vendor NPCs, as guildleve rewards, and through gathering.

Breaking Lore in dozens of ways

lol, really?

Tearing one of the few aspects of crafting out of the game

I... think we can still repair stuff. More stuff even. With less inventory clutter. Yeah, I totally feel like I lost something as a crafter now...

And, once again, dumbing things down

I believe Renta already answered this one in greater detail than was even necessary. It was a mindless action before, and still remains a mindless action now.

Filling your inventory with a variety of mats does not make anyone/anything smarter.
