beasthunt Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 This is absurd. You get what, roughly 60k per planet for dailies and by the end of the planet without dying you have a repair bill of 75k. Does that make any sense at all? So the game is officially broken for grinding for credits. How do you justify this? I love the new event. LOVE IT. However the repair cost and the dag on data chips where you have hundreds of people fighting for the same few animals that have a low-medium drop rate is not thought out very well at all and if it is thought out then thank you for the middle finger. Enjoy my 15 bucks a month and continue to keep focusing on the cartel market and screwing everything else up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beasthunt Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 So after illum my repair cost was 85k before heading into section x's heroic. I finish the planet and it was then 13k to repair. That is not too bad. Is the repair damage jacked up for the world event? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfumblez Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 No. If you're seeing obscenely high repair costs, then your gear is really damaged. Gear is now finally totaled with Mods, Armorings/Hilts/Barrels, Enhancements, and Augments in slots, whereas before it only counted the actual armor piece. So, all these hysterics are really uncalled for, as you should be repairing your gear after every death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawsko Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I'll agree that repair prices are no longer inconveniencing, they are straight up punishing. It means a few things for us players now. Don't suck. Leave random pug groups after the first wipe. Save your pennies for raid nights if you're in progression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawndartOO Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) I call ******** on the statement of having an 75k repair bill with no deaths while doing dailys. bull ****. stop dying. Edited February 19, 2013 by LawndartOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsmc Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I call ******** on the statement of having an 75k repair bill with no deaths while doing dailys. bull ****. stop dying. I repaired my gear before helping the guild with [Heroic] Primary Studies. We finished it with no deaths. Everyone leaves. I pull a Pylon Guardian to kill me because I was too lazy to drive back to Republic Base. When I repaired after that one Heroic mission my bill was 40,400 .. Serves me right for being lazy. It was my own fault. I'm okay with this but have a question which comes twofold: Did anyone explain why they increased this cost? Or did they say that this is the way it was intended to work in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THe reason why is so high is that they need a money sink so the economy doesnt go into **** like it did. Lets start a movment. OCCUPY bioaware. until they decrease the costs. ( or just do dailies and use healing companions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordMalic Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 I call shenanigans cause I fixed my gear right before NiM TZ (20k, forgot to repair prior), Go back in after a wipe and added another 23K to repair. This is getting ridiculous so after 1 death my armor broke enough to be worth 23K on Heavy Armor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're paying these prices without wiping, it may be a bug. If I don't wipe at all, I can do a full set of Gree event dailies (not including Xeno) on my Commando, Gunslinger, Sage, Sorcerer and Shadow with a repair bill around 1k each. If I wipe, I pay through the nose. Edited February 20, 2013 by Khevar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Themanthatisi Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) My wife and I were exploring tactics in a Heroic 4, what a mistake... 28k in repairs. Not being bad is one thing, but her and I like to tune our abilities and now we are punished heavily for dieing.. I have Cartel Armor with Tionese mods.... We talked, if this does not change we will look for entertainment in another game..... Edited February 20, 2013 by Themanthatisi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindron Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 (edited) General Forums, announced repair that will take effect next patch. In way of apology for excessive cost they are further reducing repair an additional 50% till early release of the hut cartel expansion. Hi everyone, Thank you all for your feedback on the changes to repair costs introduced with Game Update 1.7. Upon review, we agree with you that repair costs did become too high with this latest Game Update. To that end, we will be making a change to how these repair costs are calculated, starting with our next scheduled maintenance. Repair costs will now be calculated based on the combined value of all the mods installed in the shell, excluding the value of the shell itself. Players will see a noticeable reduction immediately after the change goes in. Additionally, we’d like to apologize for the inconvenience that we introduced. As a thank you for your patience during this time, we will also be reducing ALL repair costs by 50% once the aforementioned change goes in with the next scheduled maintenance. This will last all the way through until early access to Rise of the Hutt Cartel launches. Your feedback is important to us, and we hope that this resolution alleviates the repair costs concerns. Thanks again for your patience Edited February 20, 2013 by Cindron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journeyer Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 *fake math* + *fake math* = rage!!!! 60k for a planet's dailies? 75k repairs for no deaths? Let's get a video of that. 80-110k for each planet's dailies. 60k for 3 wipes. I used to be able to run Ilum dailies 1-2 days per week, wipe for 2 hours in raid, and come out ahead on money. Now, outrage of outrages, I have to put in effort. 15 minutes on Ilum will net you 50k. Give it a try: Agent Falcon Mission, Downed ship mission, Shield generator mission, destroy turrets mission.

DarthEccen Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 If you have an 85k repair bill, then you're not playing the game right. Stop dying. Learn to heal, with medpacks or your own abilities. Or find a healer that actually knows what they're doing. Dailies don't give you autodeath. If you don't die at all, you won't have repair costs in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because while repair costs are high, you are really *********** up if you have an 80k+ repair bill. I mean, you are dying a lot. If you mitigate your deaths, your repair cost(s) should not be that high. Stop dying. Play better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LawndartOO Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) So, I could earn around 150k for doing BH daily and Illum. I earn a little less now, but i haven't noticed a significant drop to make me regret my time spent. I do play a healer and my bud plays a tank --so it's a good set up. I can't remember the last time I've died on a daily. I do realize that the Devs want to help the in-game "economy"-- having repair costs in MMOs for damage or disintegrating gear is always the easy solution to a lack luster economic system. I suppose I just wish they had spent more time fixing the way crafting works: Synthweaving, Armstech, Armortech etc... once you get a mod-able armor set there's not really a need and thus... it seems like wasted code and man hours. I suppose this statement is pointless (it's not even the forum for it). p.s. stop dying so much. (although, my run through Lost Island HM was a rather painful bill - columi/blackhole) Edited February 21, 2013 by LawndartOO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
