I am not sure what is happening. When I played many years ago, I do not recall my weapons breaking as much as they do now. I was always a Sword Fighter, and now I am an Archer. Have Bows and Cross Bows always been more Fragile than Blade weapons? Over the past few years have they implemented features that when you get hit or use a weapon so many times the weapon will break sooner?

Just wondering, I have a good Supply of Repair deeds, and a good supply of Fresh weapons.

Peace be with all of You My U-Hall Friends and Family

CaesarDoP...as far as I know, there is nothing that would cause an item to break sooner than normal, because of use, except that when you use weapons or armor, and then repair them, they will often lose one point of durability, with the repair.

This is easy enough to overcome, with Powder of Fortification, which sells for about 40K at a decently priced vendor these days. Each bottle will add 100 Durability to anything that can be "Powdered". You can go all the way up to 255 Durability. This includes most things, but not certain new Legacy Arties, and Melissa's Cloak, from the newest story arc.

At least that way, you can keep and use your best armor and weapons, for a long time...especially considering how hard some of them can be to get.

I hope that helps you, my friend.
