Bug Repair bug

I just encountered this bug with r150 on the TS.
My items are broken but i cant repair them.

 

I am wondering about something did you have a damage armor icon on your screen.

 

You mean this:



yes.

 

ok then that is a bug and not some new feature. Your Armor never breaks thing.

 

Here s a new devolpment, i could repair my items, but only when all my items were broken (weapon, book and all right side items).
================================
Shortly after, I found a simple repair kit tool and tried to use it, this was my 'reward':

I can confirm this bug ... but ... I think that your gear was damaged before the R150.
Just like you I am not able to repair my gear ... but ... whatever I do and no matter how long I use my gear ... it is undamaged.
That puts me in more pleasant situation because I don't have to repair the gear that is not decaying.

 

Nope I had a char and I tested and it does not repair once the icon appears on the screen. I even removed all gear. Also since it was level 6 I tried to make a new toon but can not get out of the start city. Ether they broke the city or they have turned off creating new accounts.

EDIT: Now that makes since now I see Traki's post. Turning certain NPC off might mean that are changing what they due offer.

 

I think for some reason they have turned off some game features.
As I can see you can't click on Zumpe ... and you can't gamble with the jesters.

 

Yes agreed we cant click on jesters and zumpe.

 

My gear does break, at least if i die and return to the city.

The npc being turned off is an interesting angle. It might be the cause. It s a shame the devs dont post anywhere, what they are testing atm. that d be nice.

 

Yes I have noticed my armor only gets damaged when I die now. Have to not die. I was hoping that if it broke it would still work but others say they are loosing the stats when broken.

 

It is as it should to be ... when broken the item is losing its stats. If your weapon is completely broken (red icon) you are dealing the damage like you are playing bare handed.

 

Yes that is how it should be.
Sorry might not have made it clear.

Since my armor is not being damage in game by mobs or by any other means; save the porting to city on death, and there is no repair at blacksmiths. I was hoping even broken armor works on the test server.

 

lol, that d be nice, if broken items still give you the stats they have. anyways, keep your broken items till it s fixed, or switch them with something else till all your items (as described earlier) are broken, then you should be able to repair them.

Come to think of it, why dont the devs remove the whole durability 'feature' anyways? It belongs in the list of the most useless features in the game.
I mean, or you keep the durability, but when an item breaks you cant repair and are forced to throw it away (damm, that d be interesting, i hear the whiners whine already XD ) Or just remove the feature in its entirety.

 

I made a "re-check" ... I was playing the Viscanium Mine and Viscanium Submarine maps.
Cleared them both ... and it seems like my equipment is not degrading at all.

 

I am with you and I think that it might be this way and they are slowly removing it.

 

There are very major changes-
Whispers are not working,Thabo is missing,Equipment not being broken.Either these are big changes or a biggg bug.

 

If they eliminate durability and repair, what will become of the stacks of wonderfully designed simple repair kits I have?

 

It is working again.
Repair is available again.

 

Yes and the jesters and zumpe are clickable again but still no sign of thabo.
