Item degradation
everything breaks way to quick my metal pick didnt even last 3 minutes and my torch in the middle of the night breaks every minute and a half my bow even breaks every like 20 uses my armor breaks in like 5 hits.............this is ridiculous im not complaing i am just stating that with the new patch i know you made the items degrade faster but you made them degrade much to fast

+1, my items are degrading about 300% faster. This is ridiculous.

Yeah, I didn't see any numbers posted, but this is a very big change, in the WRONG direction!

They're rolling out a hotfix in about 5 mins to (hopefully) fix this problem. The announcement said something about fixing melee item durability... Let's hope they rollback this change for ALL items, and not just melee weapons. This change is affecting any and all durability, no doubt.

Yeah, I burned through a brand new torch in about 30 seconds, which was ridiculous, haha.

A higher level friend gave me a set of chitin armor he found in one of the item spawns and a spear. I turned around hit a turtle three times then it hit me back and all my armor broke but it was fun while i had it :)

I digress. The torch itself doesn't burn out, the items you collect while merely HOLDING the torch makes the durability run out. I didn't even know this was a feature before, so this only goes to show how much they're changed the numbers around :P It used to last anywhere from 5-10 mins, and now you break it in a matter of 30-40 seconds while berrypicking..

Yeah, hopefully not only tools will get a fix, but also armor :P

Now it says "fixing issues with climbing ladders, melee weapon durability -AND- inventories" the last one hopefully fixing the bug on pve servers regarding opening beast inventories while taming. Still nothing on the actual armors though :S I'm worried...

good news? so i take it you dont wear cloths or armor at all then ^^ because the armor falls apart soon as you have had 1 battle or gotten hit...its crumbles like old rags.

Yeah... Idunno about this "patch" to be honest. the bow still breaks in like 15-20 punches now. Not sure if armor durability got fixed either. Anyone confirm?
