whats the deal with the durability?

[Amnesia]

as i can see only weapons can be special repaired.

But u cant special rep accessoires or armours at all? Or is that just exclusive for game shop later?

Special repair for items other than weapons was always a trash idea. The only way the economy can work is if items go in & out.
The only other alternative is item refining, that has a chance to destroy them.

i dont think so, there is no other game on the entire market that makes use of such kind of a mechanic and the economy works perfectly fine. I guess u still can drop items on death, no? which isnt an option in those other games. I dont see why i should grind ages for items or pay millions for them to decay after a couple days / weeks to a point where its just freaking annoying to level because i have to run back every 20 minutes to repair my dura 2 super ring / armour etc. i feel like this mechanic is nothing more than frustrating for a player. But thats my personal opinion.

thats why i quit chronicles. At least its not a pay 2 win option as it seems on this server where you have to buy it in the ingame shop. (as far as i can tell)

I guess i pass on this experience then :/

durability gems/orbs maybe

You're right, diminishing over time is ****, but so it keeping them forever. Mir isn't exactly known for constant item progression. Most people will sit in the same items after a week, for the next year.

Most games have 1 of 2 options.
- A way to destroy items (upgrading chance etc)
- Fast turnover so you are always aiming for something new.

At least its not a pay 2 win option as it seems on this server where you have to buy it in the ingame shop. (as far as i can tell)

What do you mean by this? I was speaking in general terms, i have no clue whats in the GS here now.

Speical repairing access or armour was only really ever on andys servers

Mir 2 never had special repair for accessories, one of the reasons I favored mir 3.

 

[Amnesia]

i never really played mir 2 except of mir chronicles, where i found this mechanic out and instantly hated it. It punishes progression (grinding) players with downgrading your gear, which is just not how its supposed to be in my oppinion.

But i guess i have to stay with mir 3 then if this is a mir 2 mechanic.

yes, so was it on the chronicle store. So its not really for economic reasons, that its not a feature of the game. Its just a pay2win mechanic. If the server is not p2w, as the items are not in store, they might aswell add the specialr repair npcs to the server.

Mir2 (pretty much every server i played in the last few years) generally has an abundance of gems which let you smash up all those shiny items too.

In any case, you need a way to take items out of the economy. and no, losing deathdrops to the timer is not a way.

Suggest this is the right way.
Stuff has to decay else there is no insentive to Gem/Refine, slog through that idiot maze Etc:
Else you just buy, use, then sell (probably at the same price)
just my thought
