slot repair

Postby Darwoth » Mon Jan 27, 2014 2:34 am

allow someone to fix a broken slot on an item by taking another of said item and "grafting" a fresh slot from one article to the other exchanging the broken slot for a good one, this would keep rare clothes rare but allow those of us that want to wear different **** to achieve a good level of slotting on our rare pieces.

currently once a slot or two is broken the piece you were working on is ****, thus preventing someone from ever trying to slot the harder items into a set of gear.

Yes the current system where you end up with a pile of worthless clothing with a broken slot or two is ****.
They could even make it a difficulty based system similar to the slotting system so you would need high profs to have a good chance of the repair working.

I don't really mind with the craftable clothes: there should be some difficulty in acquiring well-slotted stuff, and it isn't THAT bad for most things. You just need a bit of patience farming that sea island.

The biggest issue is with store-bought items - the best for looks, but the worst for slotting. The chances aren't all that high, and breaking a single slot means you're losing out on people with a perfect set if you do want to use some good looks while fighting.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.

Slot repair sounds like a good idea to me.
Darkness is unknowing, Light is knowing. Shed light to the Darkness to transform it into knowing. Thus it becomes Light.
Darkness is the absence of thought.

I am all for this idea, but I think it should be something purchased from the cash shop for like $3 to $5. The only items worth fixing are the ones that you have to pay money for and it would be nice to be able to fix them (for a cost) rather than have to buy a whole new pack.
