If you played this morning after the patch, you probably noticed the extreme repair costs being charged. The equipment rating changes that went live today seemed to have messed things up, according to rgtr.com:
With this morning's patch it appears that repair costs for items has been negatively affected by the change to item rarity. In short, repairing purple items can end up being prohibitively costly. Also, while new items have a item health of 100, items already in-game still have a lower health of 20, causing items to need to be repaired upon login.
We are diligently working to resolve these issues this morning and have a solution out as soon as possible.
Stay tuned for more information, and stop by our forums to discuss this patch and more!
