Why can't tinkering and carpentry repair items at the same 'legendary' success rate as other crafting skills? Of course we can't get over 100 on these skills but there should be SOMETHING we can do to get the same repair rates. I mean, as fun as it is failing 10 times repairing a ring or stone armor and 100% success rate repairing smithing items, this doesn't make any sense or balance sense and we should be able to repair carpentry and tinkering items at the same success rate as other trade skills.
Agree 100%.
I get substantial failed repairs on my imbued bracelets and rings. These were made from very expensive and hard to get clean jewels. It is used for my sampire, so it has very high wear rate.
This is a necessity.
I have all 30 30 Talismans. They still fail and still cost 1 per try. If you wait for 0 there is a higher fail rate IMO.
I've noticed that too, the lower you let it get, the more you seem to fail. Repair often, seems to be the better credo to go by.
Just an opinion...
I would be surprised if the repair chance formula incorporated the remaining durability into the formula. I’ve never heard of this being the case. It’s quite a tough one to test as mass quantities of pieces with 0 durability are difficult to obtain on any shard (even test).
The only dev who would know is Bleak but i wouldn’t bother tagging him, he’s prob got enough on his plate without having to disprove superstitious crafters.
what i do have a problem with is items that cant be repaired at all. like the vvv epaullettes. this doesnt make sense as you can repair many other vvv items.
It's been my experience you only lose 1 pt of durability on a successful repair, which makes sense, otherwise it's free repairs for life.
yes totally useless item. will last around 150 times shorter than any other ANTIQUE VvV item. And yes a bit of a scam as it doesn't display "cannot be repaired" on description also, you're preaching to the converted.
