Better stock up on Enhancement scrolls.

The merchant guy in Root Abyss sells the portable durability repair kits, which makes durability a little more bearable.

(But, agreed... they should just do away with durability.)

Either do away with durability or make it so different skills cause it to degrade at different rates. Classes like Paladins and Buccaneers can use durability items for hours without repairing them, while Bowmasters and other hurricane classes can only use durability items for about 10 minutes.

All they'd have to do is make the skills' delays determine how fast an item's durability goes down with each use.
