So I just hit 170, swapped out for some higher level gear, my repair bill is 35k. I don’t even earn close to 35k killing mobs, I’m literally at a point where I can’t progress anymore because all my equipment is broken and I can’t repair it…
Why are the repairs so damned expensive?!??!!? This one feature is seriously causing me to want to quit.
Are you repairing at the NPC ?
Are you repairing as soon as your gear loses a bit of durability ?
You need to repair once your gear is red (or mostly red), and try to repair at players’ shop. Yes, you’ll think it’s more expensive but some are really cheap and most of your equipments will end up with more than 40 durability.
Also… You should get easily 35k at your level. From grinding, questing, dungeons, or missions. 35k is just a few minutes worth of mob kills.
To be honest I’m surprised it’s an issue, since we get silver so easily in the game.
High con or High str pelt I believe. You can try to switch into cafrisun set if there is a cleric in a party. You can off provoke too and let them tank instead, youre not obligue to tank as pelt btw.
I’m just curious what you do with all your silver if you’re at 170 and 35k is a lot of money to you…
-You don’t need high lv glove/boot, you can already save some silver there.
(Just get some plate low lv one or Quest one that give a nice bonus to you like tyla plate glove who give 18 defense*)
-Blue>Purple>Red rarity item cost more to repair.
-Be sure to have nothing else in your inventory or select only what you need to repair when you going for a player shop repair (NPC will still repair anything with 1 durability missing.)
-35k Silver is … Not that much but yeah I can understand if it cost you that after each dungeon. But What do you have and where do you repair to have a 35k repair cost ? That seem alot. Try to repair in a lv15 repair shop… It worth the extra durability and can be less expensive than the npc just check the price of shop around.

I am a pelt also…have 2 actually…even at level 265…using level 220 gears… repairing 2 weapons and 2 armor sets…it only cost me less than 20k…on players and that gives possible 70 durability…what is ypur equips?a lolopanther set?
It usually costs me 12-14k to repair the whole level 170 set. Who charges you 35k?
Maybe he is repairing several sets? I think around the 145-175 range, dungeons were so long, I had to take 2 entire sets to last through the entire dungeon when I was tanking. Not so much weapons, but 2 accessory sets and 2 armor sets.
Leave this game please, except when u’re more than 10lvls below the highest, u should tank if u’re swordsman even if u don’t have pelt, that’s why ppl don’t want swordies in their parties
Also, learn to dodge
As for the op… Please, if u can’t pay 35k for repair, u’re doing something so wrong
Most of the time its actually the highest damager who tanks. Im using Wiz3elem3Warlock and i tank most of the time? pelt as tank is only for lazy copy paste meta anyway. Other classes can tank better than them?
Example, Cyro3, chrono3, linkers, templar shooter, jolly roger in DG. In mission it is most of the time Elem3, or Archers who tanks instead of pelt. Youll know that if you play the game.
35k… assuming thats for 1 round of repair, if he has been doing that 3x a day, thats 100k per day, in 10 days thats 1m and 3m in a month? And assuming you have been playing this game since at the very start thats 9m, a price of crafted gladiator band already.
'Cause apparently to most people, Luring, High HP = Tanking. IMO, Clerics are the better tank because they can actually mitigate damage.
repair with squires, its always 10-15k
3 a day? this is actually an indicator u dont know how to tank, durability is stupid? yes, but even in a full day playing I never have donde that, u need to stop being a meatball (and still, 35k is more than farmable)
tank in this game is limited to get and mantain the aggro of the mob, I should add get the mob on the aoe zones (that means locked in one location), every time I play with my non swordies is so frutrating every char just run around moving the mob to every ■■■■■■■ place (and even putting u in the face while u cast something, not intnecionally, ofc), if u think thats “tanking” u’re wrong (and I know, works for some classes, archers mainly, is not a team gameplay though, and is not the fastest, wich is the idea with a tank)
I have to say also, this happen with almost every class in the game, it looks like people is obsessed with the dps rank at bosses, like “I have to be 1, even if I can do more damage or making u deal less damage”, and that stupid in a game u should look for the fastest way to clear everything, the most clear example here should be pvp (taking aside unbalances and all related problems), in where almost everyone just play the same style and doesn’t care how u can use your team mates as advantage (wich leads to frustration and 200threads about complainning of almost every skill that can kill u)
Aside from that, its true in some contents, like some earth tower floors, there’s no need of a tank, and some jobs like linker, or even paladin (or another high dps) can be a better option, but because theres no need to tank, just to kill asap
in mission if there are no swordman, or is a bad swordman ofc an ele/archer/whatever will deal more damage (because thats their job) and ofc they’ll have the aggro
After playing till 180s with a pelt… I start to realise that the best way to “tank” is not to press and hold C at all. Manual dodge (running in small circles) is still the best while trying to attack once in a while.
Saves me lots of repair fees after realising this.
Have you tried increasing your DEX?, my level 155 Paladin has about 138 dex (total with equips) and the mission bosses miss her fairly often, even with 15 levels of difference.
And how you only get 35k?, doing 3 misions should net you roughly 70k silver.
Well, most people don’t even know how to tank, standing in one place pressing the C button is hardly tanking, and with provoke attribute you don’t even need to deal a lot of damage anyways.
Try to use a pelt and tank C on a full DG run, they will always break their armors. Youll know the repair cost of pelts after 3 runs (220 armors). Thats the meatball youre asking to tank. Quite logical if they dont want to tank. 35k on a broken armors after the run is a lot. If OP says 35k then that must be his repair cost (Full 220 set armors, acce, 2 weapons, shield).
3x DG = 100k, grinding (2hrs) another 70k-100k. Add to that if youre underleveled on a mission or Saalus queue, then die 1 or 2 times.
Yes, because every hit taken counts. Swash then jump/run. Repair cost is no joke on a long run.
Or… just dodge attacks.
here’s a better meatball than u as a gift, next time, learn to dodge
