 NPC in towns buying loot.


Items such HKs, Rifles automatic repairing till have stages.
Sometimes, when i need to repair HKs, i need to open inventory. It waste time and i  was killed by mobs.


(So, who says me - Why I must clone if my death depend from the game logic?) 

NPC to buy loot
Loot (e.g. Transistor GT322) have no base value on the market.
It may not be possible to assign a value.
If a value is assigned - then the market terminal should enforce this base value (the same way it enforces the ase value of crafted items).

Crafted items that are not 100% worn out can already be traded to NPCs.
You get Obligatory Notes for items that have an AWD value (typically crafted items).
You then exchange these for AWD at another NPC.

Automated Repair

This is all about planning.
I personally have two HK in the quick bar - one being used (slot 1) and one at 100% ready to be used (slot 2).
When the HK in slot 1 is exhausted - I simply start using HK in slot 2.
Then with  slot 2 on auto-click - I repair the HK in slot 1.
Afterwards, I usually swap the slot 2 HK with slot 1 (drag and drop via the quick bar).

Not having items automatically repaired also prevent automation (macros) from getting advantage of this.

not TTing (trade terminal) is in the game for a reason.  Crafted items can be tt'd in their own way now.  loot has no value unless a crafter wants it now or in the future. 
loot has no value for a reason. in real life blood from most animals has no value unless someone needs it.  if a crafter needs it again they will pay for it.
I call this a sandbox game.

I was thinking it would be nice to introduce a new currency that has the weight of awd (could be used in terminals and with trading with NPC) but it isn't awd and so therefore could never be withdrawn and ie. money is never created because the new currency wouldn't be money. just a thought

This idea mentioned by Z.A.V. has some potential and could fit in between AWD and SAU really good.
At this moment we have the SAU for continuing to increase our skill level and the AWD for continuing to actually skill.
But, the SAU started to be insuficient and right now really hard to get.
I know there are plenty of peoples with one or more blocked skills, or that have plenty of skills chipped off and dont have the necessary ammount of SAU for unblocking all the levels.
And there are the peoples that just want to buy the skills and the SAU without skilling a minute.
So this new currency that could be earned from hunting mobs would give new possibilities to exit this deadlock.
Of course, making it usable only for limited/daily/weekly trades for gear/SAU and impossible to withdraw, would be perfect solution.
