| With the new prices of artifacts; the repair costs seem high |
| er..repair is cost actually 95% of artifact cost..It is less than the artifact price. |
| used to cost 33% of the original price of the artifact |
| Things change over time. |
| for tunaphish: err.it used to cost 114% of original price..are u talking abt like in'08 ? I don't know abt then.. |
| look its simple... if it costs 95% of the original price to repair at most 90% durability, then the only artifacts worth repairing are enchanted ones, and only if you have 90% repair capability. Means there is no incentive for lower level players to try to level their repairing ability unless they plan on using a lot of fully enchanted items later |

what many of you don't understand is there was never any incentive to do 90% repair,even after reducing repair cost to 95 % still there are many smiths with 90% efficiency.Plus I don't know how this is a problem. |
artifact price did not change
repair price did not change
whats the problem? |
| yes they did... check the may 8th official announcement |
they reduced all shop artifacts prices by 65%... they did nothing to repair costs, which were 33% of the old costs of the artifacts... now that those cost 35% of what they used to and the repair costs are 33% of the old costs we get...
33/35= approx. 0.9428 or 95% repair costs...
apparently this takes a math prodigy to figure it out |
| This isn't something that changed with the update however. It was never worth repairing artifacts under the old system, unless they were rare or enchanted. I didn't see the problem then, nor do I see the problem now. |
Under the old system, each artifact has buy back value at 65% of the original cost (0 durability, never repaired), which makes the actual cost of the artifact only 35% of the original cost when it sold back. After the changes, buy back value is removed along with the reduced of 65% cost, thus the actual cost stays the same.
Repair cost used to be 40% of the original cost, so it used to cost 114% of the actual cost; Now it is reduced to 95%. Besides, artifact has reduced buy back value each time it is repaired, down to 25% from 35%. |
buy back value is removed along with the reduced of 65% cost
Buy back value removed, shop price reduced by 65%. |
| The repair cost of hunter, master hunter, and great hunter arts need to be reduced. They are too much |
