No cost repair - please keep this! =)
This is such a refreshing thing to see in a survival game - and I don't know if its just an early access thing or intentional - but I, for one, say keep it. It removes the frustrating layer of inventory/storage management that always accompanies repairing gear - take stuff out, repair gear, put stuff back - every single time you need to fix something.
With the relatively quick rate of item wear - and the inability to repair in the field - free repairs at home base is just a very nice QOL thing that should stay that way =)

Same here! It would be annoying beyond comprehension to add repair costs to the game!

Tbh it would be better if games didn't start with this durability ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. But free repair is good enough I guess.

Yeah durability mechanic are garbage 9 times out of 10. If at least it was something somewhat realistic like an axe needing some sharpening or a bow loosing its tension
It wouldn't be a problem, but instead you spend half your playtime farming ressources just to get some f'cking tools. It's garbage and I hope the devs will either remove it entirely, or keep the free repair mechanic.

To me survival is about fighting, danger, different ways to die etc. Not about visiting your workbench every 10 minutes.

I don't inherently mind the durability but would welcome an ALL REPAIR button over hitting repair many times per bench.

"Realistic" - I don't know about you - but I can use a hammer for several years before needing a new one. Having to repair tools every half hour and dragging resources around your storage an inventory to do so is not realistic - its tedious and doesn't add anything to the game but a layer of extra work. It makes a little more sense in a pvp centric title like Ark, where resource balancing is more important - but it brings nothing worthwhile to the table in Valheim.

I agree there is enough monotonous grind to this game and we don't need the added frustration by making gear repair costs. The durability is low for gear so having to repair them constantly adds that difficulty of having to just run back to a bench that can repair the respective gear. Adding costs to that will just make that process even more tedious than it already is. Now don't get me wrong, I love the tediousness of this game, but that is just it Its balanced tedious and not padding.

+1. Actually can we have a non durability option, and no food too? Like subnautica

Mah Realism, when you can get killed by a mosquito faster then by a dragon. Mah Realism, when there is dragons. Mah realism when your metal pick breaks in a couple days use... what crappy quality. Mah realism being hungry every 3 minutes, mah realism not being able to sleep on a bed because there isn't a camp fire. I mean seriously these vikings or canadians cause they seem mighty afraid of the dark.

Yeah, I adore the free repairs. It means durability can be implemented without sheer misery, at least for me. I don't like durability, but it's not that bad when the repairs are free. Then its just a trip home to re-prepare. In a game like this, all that a repair cost would add would be frustration and wasted time. I truly hope they keep maintenance free.
