I truly am finding it difficult to keep up with repair cost.  Just posting my personal cost and they happen quite frequently.  Already repaired twice today doing quests.

We'll be reducing durability loss in the next update! Thanks for your feedback on this.

Agreed, repair cost is too high, with this price for repairing is impossible to have enough coins for anything else. All of our savings goes to repairing. I'm pretty sure everyone would be very happy if this cost was decreased.  :)

I agree the cost for repairs needs to be reduce and the price vendors pay for things needs to be increased otherwise I probably won't be doing much of anything on this game I love the game but I want to feel like I can work my skills and quest without worrying about how I will repair or how I will pay to work my skills like cooking and leatherworking and such I love working all the skills but as it is now I am pretty much just questing and that gets boring after awhile my skills provided me a nice break from questing

Thank you so much Mojawk!  I'm truly getting no where monetarily everything goes back to repairing and buying abilities.  The cost is very high as well.

I've actually been fixing a bunch of items that sold for incorrectly low values and also reduced the cost of crafting by almost 50% at low levels, if you let me know anything else you feel is wrong I will investigate!

 

Thanks for your continued support and testing!

Mojawk, could you look into the cost of ranger gear from the leather shop in the market please.  Seems very, very high also.

It's possible you could make a profession that allows repairs on weapons & armor, right?

 

I think that'd be more Eldevin-y than just buying it so NPCs repair. Also perhaps if you do go with the suggestion, have it so that there is a chance that the armor/weapon could break, but chance progressively goes away as your skill goes higher?

 

Just a thought :)

crafting gears is time consuming and cost a lot to level...you'll be broke by the time you achieve your desired level, that's if you have the money to get it...its the repair price that needs adjustment

with the decrease in the cost of items needed you don't lose as much now when crafting (sure u still lose but it's only a slight loss) not really worth crafting during this beta only a couple of days left 

 

at the rate everything costs so much i wonder how on earth a level 25 is supposed to pay 100 gold for the skill at that level

its not possible unless you pay $ for the gold coins packages. at the current rate you lose everything you make just on armor repairs alone and becomes even more difficult as your lvl raises and you get better gear. im almost lvl 20 atm,i have died a few times and i'd say 99% of my coins have gone to repairing my gear, i only have 4 silver right now,so i wouldnt expect being able to buy my lvl 25 spell for a very long time.

With AS and LW the resource is pretty easy to get by skinning and prospecting, but to be able to tailor, we are looking at buying seeds, scarecrow crop dust and compost if used, before even spending on dye and thread, very expensive.


I can tolerate ignorance, but i cannot stand stupidity

I personally think they need to put game back to how it was before update as it stands now not many of us are happy seems to me the only happy people playing are the merchants and the pvpers so yep I am thinking I don't want a founders pack or even to play this game that I love

Imho this update was the worst I've ever seen. If I had known about these changes before, I don't think I had bought a Founders Pack.

As it looks now, I'll just  quit after the 3 months included supporter time. :(

i dont think so. you just got it bit harder without supportership.

from my point of view i see just whinning and ranting of spoiled children after last update. please dont forget you have been just testing till now. past 1/2 year you got everything easily and without much effort just to be able to test all possibilities as much as possible.

and now, even without supporter status, some made it to lvl 20 within a few days. how much time is need then to win the game? maybe focusing more to sustainability rather than levels will be the right approach.

What is the main issue here, do you feel the cost of repairs is still too high? If so what reduction do you think would make sense?
