Monitoring weapon damage

Post by IgorVonDame »

Is there any way to view the state of your weapons without going to an equipment/weapon shop and submitting everything for repair just to see if it needs it?

What I mean is ... I start a dungeon with a nice sword that I've been using for a while. Halfway through the dungeon, far from a town, the sword suddenly disappears because it is totally worn out/damaged. Seeing my fists, I quickly push F1 and grab another sword from my inventory...

But I would have rather known that my sword was say, 60% damaged going into the dungeon so I would know to change before I'm in trouble. Is there some way of determining the 'health' of weapons or armor without going to a repair shop?

Just right-click items in your inventory to view their status, including the wear of weapons and armor.
I got to thinking... maybe I'm the Prince of Destruction, and I just don't know it yet.
