    Why not just keep a weathered hammer on your person to repair your blacksmith tool? Repairs are 100% as long as you are within range to repair. Doesn't matter what level of tool you use at this point. Blacksmiths make their own hammers. It makes sense they would repair them too.

    So, because you can't manage your inventory, I should have to carry around an extra item?

    Learn to manage it better? You don't need to keep absolutely everything you find. Between two retainers you have 300 inventory slots plus 30 bazaar slots. If you have no room, I suggest a late Spring cleaning.

    I'm asking for a simple change not to be flamed or told how to play, I don't keep everything, but I do Rnk all my classes. I did a lot of cleaning this morning and I'm now 75/100 both retainers and 66/100 on my character. I see no harm in asking for something I personally would like to see. Take Care!

    I'm seeing literally zero reason to do this. . .

    In short: No.

    Vhile has a valid point in that classes don't typically repair their own tool. And since you can't unequip your primary tool and repair it using the secondary, blacksmiths typically run into this problem.

    With the recent repair changes that seem to guarantee repair now, it's easier now to repair that higher rank tool with the possible plus one or two with the previous generation of blacksmith tool.

    Vhile, I don't know how you generated so much enmity With one post. You'd be awesome main tank for the ogre.

    Or with a weathered hammer.

    I would personally prefer they just let us use the secondary tool. Failing that, I'd actually rather see the repairs (if it had to be another class) go to CRP, WVR, or TAN, since they are actually involved in making the tools. Preferably CRP. Since I've never had an ARM involved in making my hammers, though, I see no reason why they should be involved in fixing it. Honestly, I'd sooner keep the current system than I would move the repairs to ARM.

    In summary, here's a ranked list of ideas to fix it:

    1. Let us use secondary tools.
    2. Move the repair to CRP.
    3. Move the repair to WVR/TAN.
    4. Leave it alone.
    5. Move it to ARM.
    6. Move it to any other class. >_>

    too bad they don't let you repair them with secondary (sub) tool.
