Blue / green items > loot

[LeoBerlin]

Hey guys,

just a quick question. What do you do with blue/green loot that is too damaged?
I tried to repair it but it not worth.

Have a nice day :-)

if it's tier five take it if you have space, you can sell it to vendor in Denbrie.

You can use spare parts to repair them Just enough to sell, you won't make a Lot of money out of this but It's still a profit.

[goplayingbertoo]

usually only take it if it's better use for you, you only get like 15-20% of its worth for selling after repairing yourself, so it's more for you if it's an upgrade, otherwise. focus on gems and valuables, ancient coins

Depends, for example Siege Crossbow with 44/80, assuming you have self repair it's much cheaper to use repair kits to fix and use or sell for profit, as long as item is 46% Durability you'll only need one repair kit then some more for Selling, Repairing is just too expensive for T5 and Uniques, if you Visit Old Quarry you get the repair kit recipe then stockpile repair kit materials, Blacksmith hammer will be the only thing you'll need to buy or well blacksmith thongs too but 100-120 in purchase to make a kit is cheap.

Heavy Armor is never worth it unless you'll use it yourself. Mage stuff and Cloth/Leather is fine.

You can also trade broken stuff to lift guy, but mostly you will trade for overpriced other item.

Dont bother with damaged stuff, if it looks ruffed up or is bellow half throw it away.
The amount of inventory management is not worth it. Repairing stuff from tier 4 or 5 is good but at that point you dont need much gold.
Instead try to maximise profits by turning in quests to soldiers, always asking for more money before accepting, doing some trading, save all ancient coins to trade at the bank, cook yourself or mostly eat omlette/meat omlette.
Repairing weapons with the repair kit is a bug, maybe they wil change it

This is good advice.

I noticed though, he only buys some moderately damaged broken stuff.

Maybe between 25% - 50%?

And he has A LOT more money than the cart guy.

Nah it's already a feature since 0.9.18, older patches had a weird way to do it, but still it's not a repair kit per say but more of a maintenance kit since they changed the function of more damaged less repairs, but hey I saved like 3k plus crowns on repairs from a Siege Crossbow that was like 41 Durability I was eyeing it at Brynn and got it at a Rack at Fort Falcon, now you gotta keep stuff within 15-17 points of durability damage if over 100 durability else 8-12 with Self Repair skill or it's not gonna repair much the lower the durability left.

Anything that's within 44% with low Durability up to 100 is fine to use a repair kit or two to get it to 50% durability then fully repair or sell as is at half durability, except Daggers eh those are hardly worth Crowns.

Thank you guys

Yeah that matches my current experience iam at t2-3 items currently. So iam just taking gems/coins and only items in good condition.

The only exception is jewelry. I identify those and repair them. The only ones I don't bother repairing are the copper rings or fang necklaces, those T1 jewelry are barely worth anything. I only repair those if their enchantments are good for my level.

At higher level I don't even bother picking those up.

Basically, identify scroll costs around 11 crowns so whatever I identify to sell better be selling for minimum 11 crowns or I ain't gonna bother.

Am I ignorant of a way to repair jewelry cheaply, or is he bullshitting?

Derrel or Brynn Jeweller only for Gem,Silver,Gold based Accesories.

[BlackKatana]

Thats not cheap way of repairing it. Whats the point of doing that when you can sell it immediately.

Let me correct my statement, is that even profitable.

Edit: I was wrong about this, it is more profitable to let them repair first for jewelry. I wonder why I never tried this though it seemed illogical to me I guess.

Unbroken goedendags and daggers are worth selling early on. Everything else is basically worthless.

Yes, it is profitable. But not the Tier 1 or Tier 2 jewelry, depends on their material.

And no, I'm not bullshitting you. Everyone else in this forum knows this, I wouldn't have said this if anyone else has specified this detail before I did... It seems like they forgot to mention this, because usually when someone asks about item repairing, someone will mention repairing jewelry at some point.

You probably didn't think about this because Darrel repairing jewelry is a bit of a "trade secret". He still repairs at 120% cost though, so if you're repairing to sell, I think it is better to just take broken jewelry pieces to the jeweler in Brynn, get him to repair then sell directly back to him. Just a note, he only repairs gold and silver jewelry, or some gemmed jewelry. Anything else like fang necklace or copper/brass rings, he doesn't repair these. (Brass Agate Ring for example has a gem on it but because it is brass item, jeweler doesn't repair this.)
