Tool Repairing

[dusky quiver]

We need a Repair bench or a way to repair your gear. Yes, the durability hotfix is hot for the tools we have now, but repairing gear is also a must.

I did some testing of the new hotfix for tool durability and this is what I found:

• Original Epic Pickaxe Durability: 220 (348 with 3x Essence of Durability)

• New Epic Pickaxe Durability: 286 (452 with 3x Essence of Durability)

• This test is per swing.

I'm sure people are in love with the hotfix that was put out, but I'm most certain that having a way to repair our gear would be astronomically beneficial to the state of Lego Fortnite.

Extremely necessary, crossing a 30-minute round trip on the map when equipment breaks is terrible. If repairing these tools uses fewer resources, these round trips will be much shorter

Agreed. Perhaps we could get a new structure that eats gems based on equipment level to repair the item.

I'd really like it to be an option inside the workbench... because it's a very cheap structure to make

[strong cosmos]

the general structure of the game is that an object has one UI to work with. Adding another feature to that structure may be a heavy lift.

I think repairing is important, but I don't think it's important until you get to mid-desert level

[tranquil breach]

you're right, it also gives the game a certain balance

I would be ok with it taking the ice crystals- they're hard to get, but it's what you need to save your purple equipment. Definitely not important until you get to at least essences.
