I have never deconned anything really huge, but I still mark all the stuff I reeeaaaly want to keep.

Sorry if you are on console.

Yeah, console here. Obviously I was pretty upset when it happened and posted this. I sounded like a raving lunatic, but it doesn't change the fact that its bad design. I am typically very careful to avoid this, but if you play this game enough, eventually an error this easy to make will happen.

Destroy should be the last option in the menu. In all of them.

Dude Right? The Destroy Option thing is TOO DAMN CLOSE to the repair thing. LOCK would be awesome but how about not even a destroy thingy IN THAT MENU?

Also, how many times have I R click, whisper a friend and block them? Too Many.

I've never done that, but I've sent group invites when I tried to travel to player.

My greatest nightmare is that I'll kick someone from guild instead of traveling to them.

Interesting, this has never happened to me.

Maybe because I dont rush in repairing things. Might actually do it once to feel the feels people are feeling in the feel world.

I don't usually repair with kits, but sometimes you are in a dungeon run that's not going well and they come in handy. It's not unheard of that you'll hit the wrong option while chatting with people or trying to sort stuff out.

That is exactly what happened. Last boss in the prison, not going great, but close, had to repair with kits. On a positive note, a guildmate had that armor piece and sent it to me. We beat him on the next try. Perhaps rage actually helped.

I would like to see an adjustment that makes it more difficult to destroy a piece of gear. In the meantime, there are addons which lock these items accordingly, making it impossible for this to happen.

I know of individuals who have done this before and pleaded to ZOS. Some of them were given back the items that they deconstructed. I would at least try to contact ZOS about this, as they may be willing to help.

I found a Training Lightening Staff once. It was the last trait I needed to get 8-traits on all Woodworking related items, and I needed four more days before I could use it for research. After about three days I decided to deconstruct a ton of items and the lightening staff went with it. Still haven't researched that trait....

Now I worry that I might decon or destroy a V16 monster set piece or my legendary crafted gear. Being able to mark items as Trash (includes a "Sell All Trash" option at vendors) along with the option to Favorite (can't decon or destroy until unmarked) would be great and probably easy to implement.

I've made a thread about this too, I'm tired of accidentally deleting/deconstructing items by mistake. The simplistic solution would to add a lock feature thus making it so you can have your items safe from those accidents at all times.
