[QUOTE=darkpark]Evenstar,
Can you expand on identify and repair not working? I just started playing the CE version but I did have the regular version with the 1.4 patch and identify and repair worked. Of course, they did have some limitations. If your chance to repair an item was low than usually you'd only repair a few points. As for the identify, if you failed to ID an item you could not attempt it a second time until some time passed which did annoy me but it seems logical for it to function that way. It would be very useful if one could purchase some scrolls of identification.[/QUOTE]
I'll have much more to say later. I just got the game yesterday. I think repair much better in the CE for the simple fact that light armor doesn't deteriorate as easily as it did in 1.4. It is still a problematic skill, ie no hammers or tools are needed for repairing and every shopkeeper is also a smith, but I am satisfied. The bottom line is that most aspects of every game are not going to be exactly what we would have desired. This is certainly the case with repair.
