I know that getting shop items repaired 90% for 105% cost isnt beneficial for you financially and it is cheaper to just sell and buy new. But i was wondering if getting items repaired say 60% for 40% cost is cheaper than selling the item and buying a new one.
Is it cheaper? Cost per battle wise
Is it cheaper for certain artifacts only? |

wat? |
think a little.
you repair an artifact for 60% of its durability and pay 40%, when you can buy a full art by selling the broken one for 65% and paying 35%.

for rare artifacts. |

You're throwing out the numbers carelessly. 40% repair cost is 40% of the REPAIR cost, but 65% selling price is 65% of the ITEM cost.
For shop artifacts, the repair cost is typically 40% of the item cost.
So basically, your 2 options are:
1. Repair 60% for (.4)*(.4), or 16% item cost
2. Sell back and buy new, getting 100% for 35% item cost.
Option 1 is arguably better. |
| 60% repair for 40% cost is cheaper than selling and buying a new one. Of course, only to a certain extent, since the total durability reduces by 1 each time you get it repaired. |

You forget that you can still sell art from inventory even after repairs. |
| @#16 but sell value of artifact reduces after every repair |
| indeed but still makes 60% repair for 40% cost good for a few repairs at least. |
| Also take the enchanted arts into account... for those, 105% of the costs is cheaper than selling, buying and enchanting again.. |
the sell for price of my mithril long sword 9/70
is 16k n 10 resources each
when it gets to 0 it may be like 14k n 8 resources each
to buy a new one i'l need 24k G n 15 of each resources
i.e. 22,950 gold required to get a brand new one
repair cost is 20,400
smiths take 110% ie 22,840
so... u know the rest
some smiths take 120% (for non-clan members)
the smith service is simply beneficial in case of rare artifacts
(which have a high cost price & lower repair price if compared) |
@ #10 As thread creator said: I know that getting shop items repaired 90% for 105% cost isnt beneficial for you financially and it is cheaper to just sell and buy new.
The question was about 60% repair for 40% cost so your answer is misleading. |
