tons of my items' durability plummeted and i was told it was a common patch problem. Any chance on goa fixing this or is this another "you'll need to farm more money to get a new one and therefor pay us longer" sham?

They only hotfix patch the 'problems' that the 'customers' don't think are vital...

They changed it to be like this so you would have to keep re-stocking from crafters and epic mobs etc.

However, I think they overlooked artifacts in that you cannot EVER activate one you have already activated. So when they go poof.. its a pretty sad day. Hope they at least make artifacts not degrade.

Do artifacts stop degrading at 70%?
Necro's already run around with all their items at 70% you know :)

Mythic haven't actually said there's a bug in item degradation - and can't say I've seen it being any worse than usual.

There is a bug where jewelry randomly get set to 70% - I think this is where you remove armour to suicide....

bit of a fool running around with all 70% con stuff tbh, focus, dps, af (not sure abotu skills and stats) all drop to 0 or get very low with 70% con.

Actually, it's a 'feature' - been in there since day 1. If you aren't wearing a helm and you get hit on your head, your necklace takes a lot of damage. Same with belt and trousers, or rings and gloves, or bracers and sleeves, or jewel and chestpiece.

They got rid of that in (live) version 1.67d though.

What a bug :(

Atm ive been playing since 25/2 which is roughly 2 weeks by now

I found a post somewhere (maybe VN) that the degrade of items wasnt a bug.. The bug was with the necro itself which had gotten decay rate much higher then intended.

Now...

My suit is a MP, I wear all the nice quested items from SI etc etc.

In 2 weeks ALL parts except my staff have LESS then 64% Dur. My staff seems to have a normal decay rate. Kinda frustrates me.

Come on. That is surely a bug. Get it fixed please!

I’m wondering if the degrade rate is just down to all the PVE. For 12 months I’ve just been rvr and my armour gets hit a few times a hour.
In PVE I’ve been chaining blue/yellow/red mobs for 2 weeks. This has to be a large factor in the decay rate.

70% condition means you no longer get any bonuses from that item, so it's probably best to repair and replace ;)

And err... 3plat takes like 2 hours to farm
