I do hope so -

repairing is tiresome - right clicking and clicking repair on every item equipped x 4 characters just SUCKS

However -

if you made blacksmith hammers a consumable item AND you allowed the consumption of the hammer to repair all equipped items to full on all party members - then it would be a resource worth finding and/or buying

tongs could do the same - but for a single character


now on to crafting -


it was the NUMBER ONE disliked mechanic in the game

I just hate having a ton of crap in my inventory and no idea what to do with it - either have recipes drop a lot more frequent or just open up new crafting recipes automatically with each level -

experimentation is so nauseating I don't even do it - I would rather google lists than spend hours getting a message that nothing happens
