Well i've had enough of tanking . With 64g repairs and only 30g in bank it is quite tough to live as a tank.

We are not beggars and we do not like begging to others for cash/kits/loot.

The insane amount of repair cost that are taken by us are not shared by other.

With the help of my friends and some generous friend i ran enough Times To get my 45 set and get it gem-ed almost and have ran dungeons just for them after getting the set.

 

INCLUDING: 72 kills of LORD UNDEAD just to get heavy gloves which i still have not got as a drop from it .[but thats another thing]

 

There are only About 4 tanks(including me) in game i am aware of that actually WANT TO BE TANKS

  • xpwaste [already respected to warrior due to bankruptcy]
  • Fable     [about to get bankrupt]
  • medi3vil
  • Proffej

Other are just doing it for their 45 sets

  • Shuttler
  • huhbum [ who's going to respec after he gets his set]
  • etc

​SUGGESTION

There is something needed to be done about repair costs.

I Do Not Know how or what you will do it, but there is surely a NEED for this matter to be looked into.

There have been many ideas give over it and i am sure devs are listening and have read and thought about what all people suggested.

 

Regards

A Tank who couldn't take it anymore. :)

to all tanks...who feel templars pay too much...show some support to the threads that you like and feel might help the class out.

i've not done the new lvl 45 dungeons yet so not sure how it is on repairs costs. is it the number of mobs before the boss thats the problem? or something else?

So...work out with your group-mate about the repair cost? If everyone chip in 5 EP each, you should be able to run at least 10 runs in per repair kit. Or you can work it out so that you can need everyone once in a while. 

 

You shouldn't be going bankrupt if your runs are cleans w/ no death. Don't repair your armor after every run. Repair when everything is broken w/ repair kit. All you really need to repair is shield+weapon combo.

No.

 

Check section where OP stated "dont like to beg for repairs". Nor one has to (suposably). And the "dont repair after every run, use repair kits" you're assuming every tank has to be a supporter/ep buyer. Which for a "f2p" game, you shouldnt have to.

Um what? That is NOT begging. In fact 90% of all drops from dungeons are vendored. Whats 1 need every couple runs?

 

Also, EP is currently 2:1, that's 50g for each repair kit. 10+ runs should easily get you enough gold to get a repair kit. BTW 10 run w/ 1 need every couple runs will net you around 45g @ lv 40, should easily get 50g@ lv 45.

Personally I have high respect for tanks. I can't count the number of times I have supplied my tanks with kits or gold for repairs or loot to sell. We NEED them in this game and people should learn to be less greedy and allow them a larger share of the loot as they require more to be able to play successfully.

 

EDIT: There are some tanks that I have attempted to help but refuse my so called "hand outs" because I am apparently "attempting to buy them"

I have given out many repair kits to tanks in need and will continue to do so. Sorry xp, would have thrown some your way in our many glove runs thought you had it covered though.

 

Seriously though HCS with all the new pots why not make a new one that is like -200% durability loss or something, so tanks can take that and item will degrade slower.

 

Or have a special repair vendor just for tanks (have to have majority of pts in templar tree to access)

Simple solution: groups agree that tanks need on all defined gems from BT/RG. Done.

as hubby is a tank I know what he pays for repairs because more often then not I am giving him repair kits or am giving him gold to cover those repairs the new dungeons are fun and me and him have done full runs not just glove and boot runs like some of the tanks have done not naming names but they know who they are have run with some that do full runs all the time and with those that do just the gloves and boot bosses
