Thread: Items to ask the devs about: a growing list 5/7/04
- Jedi robes: we want to make them. Or at least be able to make robes for the general public.
- Clothing decay - clothing decays as a percentage, which essentially means that a "bad" repair or a "good" repair will give you an equal number of deaths before the garment hits 0. With successful repairs, people can wear clothing through a good number of insured deaths (probably over 300).
- Socketing (nudge nudge)
- What numbers are we supposed to be getting on repairs? How good a bonus are we supposed to get?
- Well... we heard about /anon a few months ago... when are we going to get it?
Will edit as things come up. Please put your concerns in this thread
Trying to keep everything together so I don't miss anything that we care about. This list could also serve as a potential list of items to vote on for future "19 question" weeks.

On the subject of repairs...
Ok I'm not sure about this but I read that the repair skills have been bugged for some time and don't effect the outcome of repairs. Mainly talking about skill tapes in Repair and Clothing Repair. As repairing is going to become needed with completely decayed clothing being useless we might want to test and ask about these skills.
Might also want to ask about an actual clothing repair skill? It's only logical that we should have an increased ability to repair clothing. Though it should be so that we're the only ones who can repair, just that we can give much better results.

I'm sure repair will be the same as if you repair your own weapon or armor and are not a Master of either. (or is it master of both? Master of none?)
But I do think that Master Tailors should have a better chance of success in repairing clothing than your ordenary Joe Player Character.
We do get a bonus as of maybe a month or so ago. I haven't tested with publish 8 yet, but I don't see any evidence that it has changed. Our repair chances decreased at publish 7, but we still have at least *some* significant bonus for our chance of a successful repair. I have not checked using tapes yet, but I can do that sometime when I have a little more time.
- I'll inquire about repairs

- TH is answering the Necklace question on Monday (some questions this week are taking longer than anticipated).

Is he really answering them Monday? I thought he said there would be no answers until after E3, so it is at least another week. Or did you guys settle your debate so we get our answers (I hope so!).
Please try to bring up the crafting aprons fiting wookiees! Those Aprons are some the best ways to get extra Skill points for the few professions. Please ask them to make sure its was just an oversight or was it intentional.
Also Please while on the subjects of the jedi robes please ask them to make sure it is designed to fit the wookiee frame or else they will be then causing the wookiees to loose a new feature for the jedi...
