    The only thing worth repairing is the stuff that takes mounds of hides to create, this is actual footage of resource gathering

    Just run back and forth between these two elves.

    Video is low quality. Bad spelling. No sound. But you will learn a 2000 gp / 2000 exp loop!

    Also, I type slow.

    Thanks Kvow, that is awesome! I tried it and it does work. Also - only a short run, but I found that staying in the second area, across the second stream, seems to work just as well. You drop the elf fighter with the cool sword, then a few other guys rush you; as long as you drop them the next fighter along will also have a cool sword.
    I smell a nerf coming ....................

    personally I wear my freebie sword from the blacksmith until it breaks and I wear my augmented plate till it breaks then I sell it all back and buy anew set, not exactly optimal gameplay, but its really the only viable method now

    +1

    Repair kits: 200 gold a pop. that's 1000 gold to fully repair one piece of armor from 0 to 100, and 4000 to repair a 4-piece set of augmented leather (I don't wear the helmet).

    I can buy a completely new set from the vendor in Owl's Head for 384 gold.

    Let's see, spend 4000 gold to repair or 384 gold to buy a new set. I'm not a math wiz, but...

    Yeah, pretty pathetic at the moment.

    I started with founder gear, repaired it till I couldn't afford to anymore then swapped to my royal founder gear. Had to buy a battle spear since I can't seem to make one.

    Go into Blackblade pass and find the cave with a full set of bronze chain (secret wall). It's has excellent properties for a free suit that you can get over and over.
    I also take the 2 handed founder axe laying on the counter of the owl's head blacksmith shop.
    Full set of 2-handed gear with no cost.

    Your math is off a little bit in that 4 hides gives you 2 leather. It takes 100 hides to make one chest piece, which is ridiculous.

    At higher levels, making gold isn't that hard, but at lower levels it can be hard to make enough gold just to pay for repair kits.

    I fear the early game would completely turn off new players right now.

    You got me my house, you got me my lot
    You kept me from questing in your treasure spot
    Oh joy you have brought to my newb little heart
    Now that you're gone one can pray no more fresh starts
    Alas we all know that it can't be avoided
    So tears we will have when our riches get voided
    Oh loot cave, my loot cave you will be forever missed
    For what they have done has our community pissed.
