Why are repairs 1000g now?

[Celithdrinia-proudmoore]

This is getting out of hand. I thought I was sitting pretty on my 70k stockpile but if this keeps up I’m straight up going to run out of in game funds to play the game.

[Valshaw-stormrage (Valshaw)]

Repair costs are based off the vendor price of the item.

That doesn’t fix my problem

Repairs? or transmogging a whole set?
How could repairs be 1000G in any circumstance?

[Debbyfrowner-thrall]

It’s crazy. And then they nerfed world bosses. Used to get 1200g for killing one and now it’s a pitiful 30 resonance crystals.

Repair costs are based off the vendor price of the item.

Transmog cost is based off vendor price of the item. Repairs are based off the ilevel of the item.

Repair cost

The base cost to repair an uncommon armor piece (no weapons or shields) assuming you are neutral with the vendor is:

Durability points to be repaired * (ilevel - 32.5) * 0.02 silver

The base cost to repair a rare armor piece (no weapons or shields) assuming you are neutral with the vendor is:

Durability points to be repaired * (ilevel - 32.5) * 0.025 silver

The base cost to repair an epic armor piece (no weapons or shields) assuming you are neutral with the vendor is:

Durability points to be repaired * (ilevel - 32.5) * 0.05 silver

You didn’t ask for a solution, you asked why repairs cost so much, and I told you why.
If you want a solution, farm a trade material or sell a token.

Repairs are based off the ilevel of the item.

Oh, neat.

[Tek-grizzly-hills]

its more expensive these days. i come close to reaching the daily maximum my guild offers every day heh

i used to feel like id never reach it, now it’s a daily worry

[Amorix-illidan]

Repairing mail after just a couple deaths runs me 500g, let alone when I’m yellow. 1k seems easy to hit

[Tenzen-silvermoon]

Why are repairs 1000g? Because you’re playing a rogue.

[Titanspit-stormrage]

i noticed this

1500 gold repair

[Stubblerump-proudmoore]

Because you’re not a blacksmith with full points in all your armor slots.

[Kiekö-laughing-skull (Kiekö)]

I think it would be neat to have the armor class be repaired by their respective trade.

Plate and Mail- Blacksmithing
Leather - Leather Working
Cloth - Tailoring

The discount would be reflected by your skill in it, up to around 50 to 80% or something.

Numbers can be tweaked, but it would be neat.

blizz needs to wake up in the 21st century and get rid of durability like the rest of mmos out there, durability first came out to keep players from not caring if they wipe or not, but in 2024 dying doesn’t matter much since the loot changes, just get rid of durability

[Obvìoús-stormrage]

are people really this lazy about gold?

nvm don’t answer i already know the answer lol. go pick a few herbs/ore and your repair bills are set.

[Obvìoús-stormrage]

Durability is still very much a thing in a lot of mmos. i don’t know what you are talking about.

[Sorelai-wyrmrest-accord (Sorelai)]

There are usually a couple of 800+ gold world quests laying around. Plus you can get 1800 gold for every 50 wax turned in.

But then again, I usually make 100,000 gold just running my herbalism/mining alt for a couple hours each week. Though this is going down as is par for the course of an expansion.

[Doness-kargath (Doness)]

Zek’vir and people dying in mythic pugs because they don’t know mechanics have eaten up my gold.

[Sumwun-tichondrius]

Your AS is taking you for a ride. I know a guy way cheaper and has top end material that falls off trucks.

[Eärlindë-ravencrest]

@Celithdrinia-proudmoore

my 70k stockpile

Are you even trying?

I don’t play the AH, but in TWW alone I have made over $400k gold just by herbing and mining then selling on the AH. It’s stupid easy and after a few hours of world quests and delves, you have enough to AH and rake in thousands if not tens of thousands.
