[Dev] Repair system problems

[Zoltan]

This: "2. When an NPC repairs an item, the level of durability will be restored to 99% of the item’s condition." is ridiculous. Especially combined with: "4. The price for NPC repairs will be greatly lowered."

"These things mean you won’t feel forced to level a crafting class in order to repair your own equipment."

Seriously? C'mon man! This is really dumbing down of the game in order to placate some people who may or may not have vented their complaints.

I think that this is a REALLY bad decision.

Why can't you stick with how the game is now?

He didn't address making the actual process of repairing items easier. I saw that the developer in charge of those code changes indicated that sorting based on the level of deterioration of gear was not posible due to the data involved.

He missed the point. The point was that players want their damaged gear to be sorted to the top of their inventory regardless of what percentage they are damaged.

It is inconceivable that all DoH jobs could repair any equipment regardless of the job that created the equipment. That is another horrendous idea.

Since they have already decided to do this, I suggest that they offer two levels of repair from NPCs. One at 75% and one at 99%. Simply raise the 99% repair price and keep the 75% repair price as it is.

If they do this to crafters, it would be really nice to have separate inventory for gear/tools/weapons and items.

Also being able to quickly put dmged gear up for repair without unequipping it first, going into inventory, waiting for UI to respond, etc. This would solve much of the irritation.
