Even though the crystalline does not break in the pvp arena, I think we can do better. What if after the items broke, they're stats were reduced to say 45-50% and then they become repairable. This way the items wouldn't become completely useless after they're durability ran out.

Well in turn they would be useless, if the stats were halved in all honesty.

The crystalline items are seemingly more powered that the other sets or items around its level, therefore if we wear them for thei stat boost then half the stats would be no use.

Same in the arena, since we wear them for stats, then if it is a tournament for that level range, the items will be useless against the opponent.

The crystalline items are made to break, due to the reason that they can maintain their valuability, and not become flooded in the AH. Items can be sustained for longer by the Ubreakable buff, and hunting using Doubler, so you use less durability during each hunt to level.

It is a shame for it to become useless, however this is all to prevent them becoming another replica of the legendary items, which flood the AH, and drop in price near to nothing, in terms of the original value of the items.

Even at half most of the items would still be quite powerful. An ff red spine amulet would still have more than 250 damage damage. and undead spine would still beat out most gear at that level.

crystalline items are meant to be broken so that you can't use them forever, even with half stats :wink:

Sorry but this is one of the things that will not happen. HCS has said many times that they don't have a way to repair crystalline.

What becomes of the broken parts, those who fought so hard now depart, when durability reaches z-e-r-o oh hoh oh hoh ...

okay that was epic lame but I gotta practice for Thursday karaoke. As for the half value thing, nah when it's done it's done.

These items are meant to break, that's just the way they are. Sorry.

Did you know that there are likely over 2000 rouge black holes in our galaxy alone. Each of them can reach very high speeds, even in space terms, are each capable of destroying anything in their path, and are invisible. Well, goodnight!

since there ment to break then 1 durability should be used for each PVP arena u enter...or else it will last forever and it would be the same as everything else in the game....

But, to add more excitement in the PVP arena.. all items should lose their durability in the PVP arena.. maybe each combat in the PVP arena makes you lose 10 durability, but this will have no affect to your item.. it only affects the PVP arena... I know its hard to understand.

Yep, we know you;re tying to change that.

But, it is good to think we can have at least some stats left after the durabilty goes, however they have been made so that we have to destroy them eventually, therefore they become less common, and more rare.

lets all just destroy our stock of crystalline items, see how much chaos that brings.

They are made to have to be destroyed so that sellers of the items can actually profit off of something in this game.
