Smart Hammer

I mentioned it on previous servers but I think it's important to bring it up again.

Add a new mall item called a "Smart Repair Hammer". It will work exactly like a normal repair hammer (bring durability of the item to max) but it only works on items with smart grade effect. It won't work on legends. In exchange the hammer will be cheaper than the normal Repair Hammer mall item.


Reason for the item: tanks are being punished because their rares are used to tank. Generally tanks use smart rares and those smart rares go down in dura a lot faster than any other rare. Also without those smart rares, it's a lot harder to tank so it's not like a weapon where the blaster can just choose to use a non-rare weapon. Having this item will make it so tanks don't have to make a new tanking set as often and/or buy as many smart hammers. Also most people need G8 to tank which means they use 2 or 3 rares to make a tanking set. The reason this hammer shouldn't repair smart legends is because the legend is only 1 item that needs to be repaired compared to the 2-3 items that a graded item would need to get max smart.

JUST SAYING: I've only seen one person complain about this, and that's you

and tbh rares are alot easier to make now, if you really think about it

you're just getting to GM, then doing the same process youve always been doing after, but without the macroing rate now, im not sure if this is really needed

It still costs sards to combine the rares and takes time to make the new rares. When you compare this to what blasters need to do to keep leveling, it's not very fair. Blasters can make 1 force/distant set and it lasts them years really. Tankers make a tanking set and it's useless in 1-2 weeks.

1 g4 = 7 sards

You need 2 g4's for G8. So that's 14 sards. 14 sards every 2 weeks (or less). That really adds up even if I remake my rares every time compared to blasters who don't need to spend the sards nor money.

Warriors are one of the strongest classes later on when it comes to PK imo, so why not let them work a little harder in their leveling process? You guys already got a HUGE break from TT leaching (don't give me the "all other classes got break too", because we all know warriors benefit the MOST from this), don't get too spoiled.
