Armor Decay
They haven’t announced anything about how they’re going to do this, but I was wondering what your views were on armor decay.
What’s your preference and why?
Do you like items lasting forever with no decay
Items lasting forever with repairs by NPCs & player crafters
Items lasting forever with repairs by player crafters only
Items that last forever with repairs and additional raw materials
Decay with the ability to repair but eventually decay to a point of no use
Other – see post below
I would like it if items decayed but player crafters could make repair patches by using resources, sell them on the AH (assuming they have one) and then they would always be available to people and you wouldn’t have to stop playing and go find a crafter that happened to be online in your area when you needed a repair. NPCs could repair items, but maybe the repair doesn’t last as long or isn’t a 100% repair or costs a lot more or something to encourage people to buy the crafted repair kits. If they had the cost be expensive from the NPC, it would also prevent the crafters from massively over gouging because no one would pay more than what the NPCs were charging.
I think decay should be rather slow. I don’t want to repair every day.
