    The ability to use high grade dark matter to repair lower lvl gear

    Hello everyone

    I have a small suggestion about the repair system. Since i reached 50 and while doing many raids, i found myself collecting alot of grade 5 dark matter, and as you know, you cannot use grade 5 dark matter to repair lower gear.

    My suggestion is that we should be able to repair our gear using the required grade of dark matter or higher, not only the matching grade for the gear lvl. I know someone might say that its not smart to use grade 5 dark matter to repair lvl 35 gear, but i believe i should have the choice whether to use higher grade dark matter or not, since i have many grade 5 dark matter that i'm not using.

    What do you guys think?

    Would love if higher grade could work on lower grades.

    I agree, it makes sense, backwards compatible matter.

    This would be nice to at least have the option and have the player decide if it's worthwhile or not. Coding it might be a little complicated due to the repair material being automatically placed in your repair window, but I'm sure they can work around that.

    Highly unlikely. We've seen how limiting their system has been so far, so I think it's safe to assume said system strictly allows only 1 option for repairing any item. But it would be nice!

    And interesting idea with interesting implications. Not sure if I like it, but I certainly don't hate it.

    I'll second this.
    I personally wouldn't need it (since I always have 50+ of each grade up to 4 on me at all times) but I know some people don't always have the correct Dark Matter on them.

    I agree this should be implemented, and it seems more people are open to the idea than they were when I started a similar thread a little over a month ago.
