    Request: Removal of Repair Request if no Dark Matter or completed repairs.

    I've recently leveled up LTW high enough so I can do repairs yet every time I check it's one of the following:

    * The client doesn't have the specified dark matter.
    * All of the client's items are already repaired to 100%.

    It's really grown annoying that whenever I check a repair request I either can't do it because the person lacks the dark matter, or it's already fully repaired. So is it possible to do a check if the individual has the required dark matter? If they don't they can't put up a request until they do. Or if all the items are repaired then the request ends instead of staying active. Thank you.

    I agree. I usually afk when requesting for repairs, and when I come back, I still have the repair sign, and thought darn, I didn't get repaired.

    But when I checked all my items, they're all 100%. So it just seems like the system is dumb.

    I hope the new UI is smart, like blizzard-style intuitive, easy, and smart. Not slow and dumb.

    What is even more annoying is when you have one or two pieces that need repaired and someone ninja repairs the stuff that is barely damaged.

    They need to let you specify individual pieces of gear to be repaired. Currently it only lets you choose to repair your weapon, or your gear. That's why you always have situations cropping up like that. Maybe I only want to repair my jewelry and everything else is fine. Well if I want to put my jewelry up for repair, that means also putting every other piece of equipped gear up for repair as well, you don't have a choice in the matter.

    Then there's the issue of Materia melding requests having the same icon as repairs ... and people putting items in there bazaar for repair because they are unique and they are carrying more than one so you can't repair it ... people having items in their bazaar for repair but they have full inventory so can't repair it ... etc. etc.

    Yeah I've noticed that a few times, repair request is up yet the item is at maybe 99%. When I find those requests I just leave them alone. I finally was able to do one repair the other night, someone had a belt at 33% and a pair of boots at 78% or around that. Instead of doing a full 1 click repair I just fixed the belt and left their boots alone. Chances are they just wanted the belt repaired, no point in wasting dark matter and their gil for something else that didn't need it.

    they might have wanted their boots at 100% so that they can sell or trade them

    They were wearing WHM AF, Healer's Boots. Can't trade that so odds are they just didn't feel like removing all their gear for one repair. I know several people who do that.

    ahh For some reason I still un-equip all items before requesting. Hadn't thought about equipped gear.
