About Repairs....

[Azrael]

Ok this is really lame, I'm really pissed off.
Sometimes it can happen that you forget to repair your gear, and you get in a dungeon with it half broken.
NOTHING you can do at this point, I got my crafting skills to 50 and they are totally useless, you can't use them to repair yourself just because they are a different job.
Plus there isn't even a remainder when you are outside dungeons to tell you your gear is totally broken, like some icon showing up or something, something better than those invisible circle on the bottom right.

I was just healing Castrum Meridianum and got 0% to my weapon, then my heals became ridiculous and had to leave, because else we would wipe endlessly.
REALLY give us something to actually see our gear is BROKEN, it should be something really important to notice.

There is: 'Character' widget/menu option shows your gear status. Inventory Grid in bottom right shows your gear status on the first set of vertical icons - nothing beats actually checking and preparing though.

Yes, I know, I think you missed this part.

All I read was that you learned a valuable lesson about keeping your gear in good repair and having a back up weapon just in case.

You get a warning when a piece of gear hits 10% durability, it even shows a message in the center of the screen.

lol yea right, you get a warning at 10% and 10 minutes after your gear is broken. I guess it's a bit late, considering a dungeon can last over 1 hour

You also get an icon next to your name that can be kind of hard to distinguish since it shares a similar icon to the GLA ability Conv. but..aside that, you have plenty of indicators and aside that:

Though tell me - what prevented you from checking your gear before you entered the dungeon?

OP: Learn to be prepared. before you queue up you should ALWAYS check your gear and make sure you have any appropriate meds/foods you want before you hit that button. SE gave you two very quick and easy ways to keep track of your gear, the little dots and the character screen. For a little more work you can mouse over each piece of equipment and see the exact condition of each piece. Those little dots aren't invisible, they're quite handy... it's a great visual quick check on gear status and inventory status.

I seriously don't understand how people can blame everybody but themselves when they have only themselves to blame. The concept of personal accountability is lost

after a few runs i usually repair my gear just for good measure, it pays to be prepared

This games durability reminder system is really bad designed, so the OP is not at fault for his mistake. it doesn't tell you when your gear starts to degrade until it's at 10%, which is 5-10 mins from being completely broken.

Why does gear stay white, until 10%, then finally break? Why is there no "Your gear is at 75%, your gear is at 50%, your gear is at 25%" reminders? Why doesn't it turn green/yellow/red? I shouldn't have to manually open my char screen to see my gears durability, that's insanely annoying.
