The latest patch is a curious beast. Great improvements all round - then one-use identifying glasses and repair hammers??? Er... I think I'll be waiting out another patch or two before a replay, so.
The identifying aspect didn't seem to necessitate such a harsh overhaul. In hindsight, I actually like the 'Christmas wrapper' mechanic behind it: wait for the wrapping removal before the present is revealed. Seemed to be fine the way it was, with its main cost coming from point investment in loremaster.
Yep, there's lots of discussion elsewhere about how to fix the terrible repair/identification mechanics. I'm hoping for one-click repair/automatic identification myself.
We'll see in the next patch.
