Verfall und Reparatur
Every item has 10,000 points of structure. Once per day, the item loses an amount of structure, decreasing the time until the item breaks (this amount is listed in the wiki description of each item). The remaining structure is given by the condition of the item, but has no effect on the performance of that item. For example, a brand new sword will be just as effective as a often used sword. The only way to restore structure is through repairing that item. For each hour of work, some of the structure is restored to that item (the amount restored is also listed in the wiki description of each item). Usually, items made of harder materials such as steel and iron decay more slowly then those made from softer materials such as wood. Once all 10,000 points of structure are gone, the item breaks and is no longer functional.
The structure is represented by the adjective before the object. They are, in order from best to worst:
- Brand new (deterioration = 0 to 999)
- New (1000 to 1999)
- Used (2000 to 3999)
- Often used (4000 to 5999)
- Old (6000 to 7999)
- Crumbling (8000 to 9999)
