    After the last update, my weapons and shield began to lose durability very quickly. Previously, it was enough for me for 2-3 visits to ERG, but now for 1 visit I spend 1-2 repair kits to repair weapons and a shield in battle.

    (Armor breaks at normal speed. The only problem is with weapons and shields. This is critical for me, because I am playing the role of a tank.)

    Thanks for attention.


    (I also do not lose hope in helping to translate the game into Russian.)

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): Spamming the Taunt skill breaks the shield at Sonic's speed. This is a bug. But I cannot report it to the site without making a purchase for dollars ... I need help, comrades.

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): But how do I report the error then? My shield and weapons break too quickly when I am a tank. This happened after the update ...

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): I'm talking about the aggression skill of heavy armor. It doesn't have to be that. Maybe it's just a mistake. But before, my shield and weapons were enough for me for at least 3-4 visits to the ERG.

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): But now I need to spend 1-2 repair kits to live.

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): This is definitely something going wrong.

    zaweraks zaw (To Universe): Now we have started a new entry into ERG, and the shield has already lost 3 durability. It depresses me.

    Okay, as far as I can tell this bug has been around for several months ( > 1 month, < 3 months ).
    When being a Tank in ERG (Justiciar Paladinson), my armor and weapons can lose 40-80 durability per hour.
    I do not know the cause but I would assume block / parry has something to do with it because a 2h axe will lose massive durability without performing any attacks AND without using the Parry skill (SotA seems to auto-parry most attacks).
    I do not know if there is an additional problem with shields specifically introduced a month or so ago.

    My shield is taking durability damage from attacking a practice dummy, but not getting struck or blocking any attacks.

    Using the Taunt skill without attacking anything also lowered my shield AND sword durability, even though I am not being attacked, taking damage, or attacking anything.

    While discussing this with zaweraks zaw, another player named Dlight Master mentioned Provoking Shout was also doing this for them - I saw it lower the durability on my sword and shield, same as Taunt.

    As for the weapon (sword in my case) taking more or less damage than is intended when attacking, or parrying, that should be up for dev review.
