I have had a guts full of NO money sinks in this game and I spend money
on bag space that is worst than a Croprit ripoff my Armor repair bill goes through the roof trying to save enchanted gear I find because I pay through the nose for Enchants (this is if you play as you choose and role play). My char's are new in this world and knows nobody, they have to work thier why through this world and up in scocial groups to get known (so they don't have lots of friends in guilds to share resource's with in gluding crafting and trading).
We find many crafting stations through out the world that we can use.
Why not have a skill point line in crafting to allow for repair. It's hard enough to make points meet now but, I go with a point in each or a 1 - 3 points in each for a repair line in each craft, so as when taken if we have the matts in our bags we can repair our gear. And a toggle in the interface to check equipt only as a reapir option, then we know the 1,000 gold is for what we are wearing and not all the stuff in our packs that we will sell or break down
I do enjoy doing group play I just do not what to have to rely on others to ge stuff done, my time zone means I'm on while others are sleeping, Idon't really enjoy a game where I have to order things on an outside website and wait for (sometimes days) for item I need, thats almost game breaking, can stop you in your tracks at times.
This is NOT ment to be a poor me cry it's an option to give people choices and does not in my option make this easyer.
