How to repair items in Oblivion Remastered
Did you know that the Elder Scroll 4 Oblivion Remastered has weapon and armor durability? Not only that, but the original also has this feature. It depletes quickly, too, causing your gear to decrease in overall effectiveness. Fortunately, it's just as easy to repair items once you learn how to. At first, you won't have any ways to repair armor and weapons in Oblivion Remastered. As you progress through the tutorial and make your way to your first town, you'll unlock several methods to fix your gear, making it much easier to keep everything in pristine shape.

How to repair items in Elder Scroll 4 Oblivion Remastered Oblivion Remastered offers two ways to repair weapons and armor: Use a Repair Hammer Visit a town's Blacksmith or Armor Merchant If you want to save money, you can find Repair Hammers around the world that you can pick up and use to fix your gear. Alternatively, if you don't mind spending some cash, you can visit any city's blacksmith or armor merchant and pay them to do it for you. How to use a Repair Hammer Your first option is exploring Cyrodiil until you find Repair Hammers. You'll mainly find them inside chests and as loot from fallen foes, but you can also purchase them from merchants. Once you acquire a Repair Hammer, use it while it's in your inventory to create a Repair menu. Here, you can select the armor piece or weapon you want to fix. If you succeed, you'll raise the item's durability without breaking your hammer. Otherwise, its durability will still go up, but you'll lose the hammer in the process, requiring you to use another if you want to make additional repairs. Your success rate and the item types you can repair depend entirely on your Armorer skill. Alongside a general passive buff of lowering the odds of your hammer breaking, you'll also gain the following benefits: Level 25 (Apprentice): You can now repair magic items. Level 50 (Journeyman): Your Repair Hammers last twice as long. Level 75 (Expert): You can repair items beyond their maximum durability. Improved weapons deal more damage, improved armors protects more. Level 100 (Master): Your Repair Hammers never break. One hammer lasts a lifetime. While new characters who lack proficiency in armor repairs will often break their hammers, masters in this craft can use one for the remainder of their playthrough. Similarly, while the normal maximum durability is 100, a Level 75 Expert Armorer can raise it to 125 durability, improving your weapon's damage or armor's shielding stats.

Most heavy armor, weapon, and blacksmith shop owners will do the job, with some early game examples including Urbul gro-Orkulg at the Imperial City's Slack 'N Smash, the two merchants in The Best Defense, and Rasheda over in Chorrol's Fire and Steel. Rather than using Repair Hammers, these merchants charge coins for repairing your gear.

Durability directly affects your weapon's damage and armor's shield rating in Oblivion Remastered. As your durability decreases, your damage and armor rating will also drop, making it much harder to survive in battles.
