Armor/Weapon Durability

just a wild idea came to my mind that what if armor and weapons had durability ? i think it would be much more realistic to have to take care of your weapons and armor rather than just totally forgetting about them.

this has a lot of benefits like:
- players has to check, clean or fix armor to recover the protection lvl
- players has to check, oil or sharpen the weapen to recover its damage points
(both these points are good to the game as it increases player activity and makes him spend more money on armor/weapons)
- players who live abroad has to travel home to do the above.
- maybe only donators can have the option to clean/fix/oil ... etc this encourages players to maintain donator status

There is a reason ideas like this have been shot down time after time.

which is ?

we spend plenty on armor and weapons. also too much work to balance.

would be a major nuisance...

The "inconvenience" of a few more clicks every now and then for the sake of "realism" isn't really going to do much to change the status quo - players who can afford it will do it, players who can't afford it would get screwed over and the players who never attack anyone wouldn't notice any change at all.
