schmenge: How exactly do I use the repair skill? Nothing that I can see in the interface activates repair on an item and the documentation leaves a lot to be desired. Help!!
dr.ashy: Go to a person who has a shop (no difference), u got a toolbar down there in which there are icons that indicate SELLING, BUYING, IDENTIFYING (question mark [?]) and a HAMMER that when u push it your cursor becomes a hand with a hammer and when you click on your weapons in your item list it will be repaired in exchange with some gold (of course it is expensive).
Thanks for your response, but doing that is not my problem. According to the manual (see below), you should be able to effect repairs without a merchant while in the field.
Smithing is an indispensable part of the warcraft. Therefore the paladins of
the Brotherhood of the Righteous are skilled in it as well. The protection of
justice in the Realm cannot be stopped because a paladin’s sword has broken
or a part of his armor fell off. Without the smithing skill the enforcement of
justice would be dependent on gold paid to the smiths for the repair of broken
equipment.
The higher the mastery level, the more complicated armor and weapons the paladin
can repair.
