New repair values are much too high

[Seawied]

Good post Hunter. Has a dev posted the new break numbers yet? I haven't taken the time to write down and figure out what the percentage the repair costs are.

Standard Loadout.

Arbalest
Steel Bolts
Fighting Axe

Kettle Helmet
Kuyak (light)
Leather Gloves
Rus Cavalry Boots

43,710 value.

The Arbalest is the most expensive piece, coming in now at 1300 abouts to repair.  I am reliably gaining money even with the increases, so I do not see an issue.  I am not generally a cynical person . . . but it strikes me that most of the complaints are coming from people who seem to believe that if they cannot wear plate every round and make a profit, then there is something wrong with the system. 

If the issue is with cavalry perhaps a system where Horse upkeep is decreased based on riding skill.  Not by too much however, it still must be more expensive than foot.

They arent bunch of guys wearing plate, except Gnjus. Read more carefully. I remember when I was playing HA even low gear with horse cost around 30-35k

Excluding you and myself, there has been 9 people posting on this thread.  Yet 41 votes for the bottom two poll options.  The conclusion of bias isn't really a leap, more of a baby step.

Yet I make a modest profit on 43.710 k?  Are you on the losing team constantly?  For me it was split half and half.

[Apostata]

Nay, I am not losing anything, not playing. But what I heard among all those blathering around; upkeep can be pretty dangerous from 30K upkeep above. I am considering your yesterday experience lucky.

[MadJackMcMad]

Luck would be winning every game, not half of them.

[rustyspoon]

Using 46k worth of gear I haven't noticed a problem. I don't make as much gold as I used to, but I'm still steadily making gold.

Talking about repair trigger...

[Hunter_the_Honourable]

my gear costs around 21K and so far I have lost 2k, also I never have more then 40K im lucky if i have that and no i don't wear plate all the time if you see me in a server look at my gear you will see its no were  near plate.

[Tzar]

Heh i guess anything over 10k equipment is only for people with fully loomed items that are able to sell their loom points at market..... huzzaaah!!!

[Seawied]

Just a bit of an update from me.

With the price increase on the heavy lance, my gold loadout is 28k. Since the last hotfix, which reduced the overall cost of repairs, I have been making about 2k an hour. I'd like to see the break numbers still, but it doesn't appear that the new patch's repair system is entirely unreasonable.

in some games i find my self wearing nothing to make money so i can get newer and better items

[Sylar]

I'm wearing 22k worth of equips and my money is going down the drain FAST.

[Baggy]

I'm wearing 22k worth of equips and my money is going down the drain FAST.

lies i wear 42k worth of gear now(without counting looms) and break even so you should be making shit tons of money.

[Blondin]

Hey guys, i guess all of you have bought all the armors and weapons he wants to?
You all have the set of gears you want?

So why do you want more gold? For doing what?
