Topic: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

Last Christmas there was an event where you could raise Durability on items. This was all good and such, though it should have been restricted.

Now, I remember when and why GameMaster Robe was nerfed.. For the obvious reason it was to overpowered with resists and blockage..

Thanks to the dura increase.. We hit the same problem. Achilles' Skin has 75% Resist and Blocks 100, not to mention it adds def. and stam. People got this normally 5/5 dura item to 160 durability.

I reckon this should be dealt with. Decrease the Resists and Blocks. Because they were like that because they were so low dura.. I think there was a reason for it to be that low dura right?

Thanks for reading.

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

I have discussed the Achilles' skins with Zer before but I don't think he actually implemented the fix (yet).

I suggested limiting the effect of lower repair costs for higher than standard dura, like only have it have an effect till 200% of the base max durability. This would make the repairs per dura serveral thousand gold pieces which would make it significantly harder to keep them repaired.

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

This will not be a correct fix. We got Mpots, remember? They will just drop it till 10 dura and then use mpots.

Reconsider your 'fix' please.

Thats a good idea but it will still allow both glass swords and a skins to have a higher durability than intended and therefore be extremely overpowered in comparison to other siems. Why should a wealthy high level player get to keep his godly armour and sword with ridiculous ar and not a low level one? It seems the event that allowed people to increase durability was flawed and did not take these two items in particular into consideration. A far easier solution in heinsight would have been to ban these two items from the event. An easy fix? Take all of the items dura back to the original intended amount.

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

Alright, I changed Tinker and mpots to no longer repair these two items to full dura so they will slowely be phased out. For every dura repaired there's a 15% chance that it fails so on average a repair of an Achilles' skin with 60/160 durability will be repaired to 145/145.

*awaits the YOU SUCK SPY and THIS GAME SUCKS IM QUITING posts from my favorite players*

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

Ya that would be a normal thing to do.. People used their event gold for these items. Let them exchange their askin and an approx of how much elven gold it has taken them.. Some people bought C for elven gold to be able to get askin and glass sword up to 160.

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

i have to agree with rob on this one. whoever was involved in making the christmas event should have seen this coming.  lots of people went out of their way to beef up askin because you left it open to do.. dont punish us for your mistake.

give us a refund for elven gold. or compensate with a differnt item/gp or something.

and on a side note.. if anybody has payed attention to faldon economy since tinker was brought back.. ITS GONE TO SHIT!!!!
everybody has every item.. nobody is buying/selling.. so whats the point in camping.. 90% of the game has became pointless because of tinker.

i suggest either a complete removal, extremley outragious repair prices or make tinker like blacksmith repair and take off max dura every time. at least i could trust tinker to repair my item vs hand it over to be repaired and never see it again

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

I suggest you do not do this with Glass Sword rick.

Glass Sword
Attack Speed:     0.4 s
Damage:     4-20
Durability:     1

Master Sword
Attack Speed:     0.4 s
Damage:     9-20
Durability:     45

Re: Achilles' Skin **Zer and Wu**

Dealing with your askin oversight is one thing (though there needs to be compensation), but you shouldn't be messing with the fact that higher dura = cheaper repair. Leave that alone. Let it go past 200%. Some items that weren't usable before are barely usable now, and that was the real value of the Christmas event and why a lot of money was sent in. You can't just make an event and then change EVERYTHING good that came out of it...
