smoq2 221 Posted June 6, 2014 My guess it will literally "repair" your bladed weapons/tools. Same as the sewing kit for clothes or weapon repair kit for firearms. The only difference that hints I might be wrong is that the action is done via a context menu, not drag&drop. Did it change the condition of your fireaxe in any way?

This is exactly what I was going to type.. I really want to find out if it fixes your axe now, maybe we could get a damaged axe and change it to pristine this way that would be sweet :D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnDMarshall 23 Posted June 6, 2014 (edited) Any BADLY DAMAGED bladed weapon/item can be resharpened to Damaged but not better than that. You cannot sharpen a bladed item if it is Pristine/Worn/Damaged. You can sharpen the blade if the stone is on the ground/fire and NOT in your inventory. The reasoning is that you can keep an axe or similar in a usable state but if you dont sharpen that item and it becomes RUINED then you have to find a new one. Very effective if you need to cut a lot of wood for fires, chop firewood - take wood to fire - use stone that is in the fire (if you added a stone or stones to the fire) to fix your badly damaged axe - go chop more wood - repeat until your bored..... An axe for example will still work if its damaged - too much emphasis is placed on having Pristine items as one glitch and its all ruined - a single mosin shot will mean that Pristine axe you carry is no longer any good for you as you will probably be dead. It's nice to carry Pristine things but sometimes those things dont need to be Pristine - all that glitters is not gold - do the best you can with the limited resources at hand.

The-MCV- 149 Posted June 6, 2014 Very effective if you need to cut a lot of wood for fires, chop firewood - take wood to fire - use stone that is in the fire (if you added a stone or stones to the fire) to fix your badly damaged axe - go chop more wood - repeat until your bored..... So you can use the same stone indefinitely? Anyway, this feature had to come in because axes got degraded too fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
irishroy 1347 Posted June 6, 2014 Would be too cool, if there would be an animation to it.Sitting on a rock, sharpening your axe, whistling a song... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xbow 362 Posted July 8, 2014 (edited) Why not just introduce a two slot bastard file that will take a Damaged or Badly Damaged ax or knife up to worn? You could even make the file a perishable item with 10 uses. In any case chopping down a few trees shouldn't screw up an ax as fast as they get messed up now.
