Equipment Durability Stone

I think it would be cool to have an item that would permanently the durability of equipment by just 1 point. Thinking something like 100-200 dias per or something like that.

example- you have a 100/100 dur piece of gear use 3 of the item then its 103/103 dur.

While this would devalue OD gear a bit it would increase value of gear in high 90's and help create more useful gear for everyone as well have more items for people to buy.

+1

make it kinda like the plussing jewels but cannot go lower than 101.. so it's perfect UP to 101, but has a chance of failing and critically failing back down to 101

no. no, no, no, no. there is enough gambling with real money in this game. if you want to gamble away all your gold, have at it, but leave the dia items perfect.

i have no issue with a good RNG in the game. i just don't think it's right that REAL MONEY goes into the RNG and downgrades can come out. if you want to make the ingame(for gold/mems/proof/honor/any other ingame currency) items have downgrade failures, etc, go for it.

just me $0.02

I liken this to buying ram for my laptop.. 99% of the time, it's gonna fit & I'd have more ram w/ lots of joy. The other 1%? I get a bad stick of memory, bad memory timings make it slower than the previous ram I got.. worst case? I fry my laptop due to any number of things involved in inserting the ram/opening up the laptop & whatever boards need to be removed to get access to the ram location. All a roll of the dice.

LOL, actually you are right...

It is roll of dice... 99.99% this will not be adopted thanks to pricy popular golden repair hammers... and there is .01 chance that dice will roll on this idea... :lol:

It was many times suggested to make fix of dura to be part of crafting - as crafting anyway is too slow, to expensive and not worth much - this would make it somewhat appealing... That also had .01% of chance to succeed....

how many people buy golden repair hammers? How many just use ADV packs they get for free or buy from someone.

Edit I for one am ok with this item. Either that or there shouldn't be SO much variation on dura. The fact you can get 70-120, 50 pts of variance is just too much for their RNG

Actually, on some items you are able to get much lower then 70 dura :p I've also heard, however have never seen, of items being over 120 dura, junk items, but just throwing it out there. ^.^
