Durability & Repair System Update
- Offhand (Shield & Magic Tool) equipment resistance to taking durability damage has been increased significantly.
- Items will now have a set minimal durability of 1 to allow for repairs to occur.
- Additionally, items that may still show as 0 durability, will still be able to be repaired.
thanks for that on shields! hoping you will notice people are still upset re: armor. for what ever class is tanking, and/or aoe classes. And dodge seems to be of no use in helping to reduce need to repair, either. (ex: a lvl 213 cleiric with all 60/40 gears will have dur go to zero after about 5 rounds of tanking at most, 20 mobs at level 130 mobs (temple). Not the sheild or mask, but the wings first, then shoes and gloves. guess dodge based toons will eventually be forced to buy mall gears to tank in - Or go naked).

On the surfrace any changes for the better on crafting material drops are appreciated. However, a few things dont make sense. First, and i cant speak for other artis, but since we are at level 20-50 so short a time, i was looking forward to having toons who could farm bees in xita for insect wings and pollen. and then again on my level 195-210 toons too. They may be needed for butterfly wings, which are level 35 but also are used in the mspeed / aspeed masks, which are any level. (venetian/butterfly) and frankly even after farmign pure bees to level 39 when they go green, or even no exp medal usage for 2 hrs, during double drops it would be a miracle if i managed to obtain 20 of each in a high spawn location Please reconsider puting them back. thank you.
I've probably said it a number of times, but please consider making crafting items a MAP drop, not a MONSTER ONLY drop. The items are rare enough, dropping iin only ONE map as it is. and even in un-utilized maps. many of these items cannot be bought (at least on draco) for 100 - 150K each. (i.e., ice shard, EUDY wing peices, insect wings, pollen,) if it was your intention to make items RARE, and decently statted items even more so, then come out and tell us all ready. else those mats should be accessable to artisans at a reasonable rate and cost. Instead, the problem will now increase, as you have, for example, put out 2 or 3 newly needed items for craft farming, the killer leaves, hook and prophet wing peices, and xita dragon feathers, being added to needed materials, and only available from select mobs in non utilized maps. Have you not wondered why there are very very few ice spirit backpacks in game? IF we as artisans are able to OBTAIN ice shards, that bag takes 21 (or 26 to craft?? -AND STILL DOES NOT DISASEMBLE CORRECTLY!!!) where as mask of lies takes just a few, and the wing takes at most 13ish.
Also, while on the subject, for those who manage to make it to mt eucara at lvl 40-50ish, taking out ice shards wasnt nice. not to mention that you are removing ice shards from 5 mobs, and returning them to only 2.
( and people STILL wont go farm in temple, mostl likely, as long as the drops and exp from MC are still nada.
Lastly, want to mention that while you increase chems, is it at all possible to have dirties drop in quantities of MORE than 1? as in gem boxes, spiritual stones and ores, and runes. and, when opened have them have a chance at opening more than 1-3 quanitity??? We've gone from seeing things like drop of 7 - 11 D2s to at most 1 gem box that MIGHT have ONE d2 in it. Unless it was your intenion to reduce gems to an ammount equal to where the chems are all ready reduced to
