Yoshi P - Repair "Fix" NOT a Real Fix at All - You've INCREASED WEAR! :(

[Kiara]

How much did it cost you to repair? Castrum was 1.2k per run last pre-patch, and about 20-25% dura loss. No change at all I think.

Hi Shiyo,

Didn't repair yet, but checked the NPC right now: 682 gil.

So today's patch notes state that it was a 60% reduction in costs (500 g -> 200 g). Seems higher in gear damage (factoring in the % reduction), no?

Also, BTW, we're running our Free Company Action "Proper Care" (Reduces Gear Damage).

Castrum has always took away 20% gear durability. Gear damage hasn't increased at all.

What really amazes me is that people think it is perfectly reasonable to have to swap gear just to keep it from wearing out. The "Use it and wear it out" system is really pretty bad. Gear wearing out from death is acceptable, as it is more a punishment for failure rather than an added price to play the game. Some people here would defend an S-E decision if they were going to come to your house and steal your silverware.

I like the game, but it sure as heck isn't the greatest thing since sliced bread. These are realistic complaints, stop trying to shut people down just because you think S-E can do no wrong. The fact that we have ARR at all is proof that isn't true.

While you have a very reasonable complaint, this thread is about something else.


The whole swapping gear concept doesn't even factor into what the OP is discussing, so I'm not sure why it was brought up earlier in the thread at all, honestly.

1.5k for repairs is way better than 4k

Repairing isn't so bad anymore.

[Synvul]

I am not that level so don't know but have a question about dark matter reduce cost and repairs. Does that help even more?

[Sajittarius]

self-repairing is good exp for crafting by the way, grade 5 stuff can give 500-1500 exp per repair depending on item/lvl

It honestly seems like all everyone does is complain on the forums...

"SE we need afk timer so i can login!" "SE i dont like being booted for being afk!" "my gear wears too fast now" "i can't make money only grinding endgame content" "SE can you do maintenance when i'm sleeping and it's inconvenient for you?" "SE the CNJ guild quests are too hard" "SE my character has no butt!"

Like seriously alot of the threads i see just make me laugh, people want a challenge then cry because it's "too hard", want a feature for something they themselves found a workaround for then complain once all their threads have been heard. The game really isn't that hard, i did the CNJ quests drunk and in nothing but "heat resistant" armor <.<. if your gear is wearing "too fast" then lvl the craft that can repair it. I would rather have server stability than have them waste time tweak/retweaking armor durability...

Its retarded before Tank used to get 400G Max repairs.

Now everyone get 1k+ repair per run.

[Teleniel]

Just run Amdapor Keep. If you get all the chests that's 14 Bronze Pieces Each (1,400g). With 2 deaths, and killing everything I had less than 500g in gear wear (Admitedly this is in Ilvl 55~60 equipment).

So as I see it Amdapor is now:
+500~1,000g (depending Ilvl)
+80 Philo
+40 Mythic
45~60min clear time

Honestly not that bad
