Is this a joke?

look at the f damages that we have to pay


this must be some kind of joke!

besides just looking at the % its all off 2 weapons costing near 70mill to repair and def weapon that will cost just 7mill way off in my opinion.

Question is if we repair them will our power increase, or will it just remain the same to make up the difference in the new costs?

Re: Is this a joke?

Also notice that the weapon is about 6x more powerful than it used to be. Plus the repair cost increases exponentially as the weapon becomes more damaged. The cost is so high because the weapon is so badly damaged. If you compare prices between 10% damage and 90% damage, you might expect it to be 9x difference, but its probably more like 100x.

I kinda agree with the repair costs though. The one thing I've always disliked about quantum is the massive cost to repair weapons.

Theres a trick to save yourself naq when repairing heavy damage. Dont click the full repair button, just repair about 500 points at a time manually, and the cost per point decreases at regular intervals.... it actually saves you a big % of the cost to repair it in one click.

Re: Is this a joke?

Its not the quickest way to do it, but its definately a lot cheaper!

I find that repairing 1000 points at a time is pretty effective, but the best thing is just not to let them get to such a bad condition in the first place.

Re: Is this a joke?

I totally agree on that note, the cost of repairs are by far less if you repair them after around 10 attacks

Re: Is this a joke?

every 200 points is the best, 150 works too
and it's this time of repairs that makes Q interesting, since u can repair after each hit, and it costs less.

Dont bother repairing right now. These new weapons appear to be bugged.

lmao


Well another tip is to repair your stuff often. Like after every 2-3 farm attacks, instead of after every 10. You'll save a lot that way.

Another good tip is to not buy 4,000,000 weapons in main, and forget to repair them so that they get destroyed while you farm and you end up losing money. Trust me, that sucks.
