I'm not sure if this has been suggested over the time or not (couldn't find anything related on the forum) but I think it would be nice to receive messages in form of Bmails or other notifications from the bot himself for certain cases like: your armor dropped under 10% durability and you didn't notice etc.

It would be beneficial for both new players and users with a lot of bots who simply sometimes do not notice in timely manner that their armor got so broken and now it cannot be repaired anymore (because you have 1 INT and deal no damage to fight anyone to steal kudos etc.)

I know you say this is for those that don't/can't pay attention, but it is detailed in the fight, and the showroom always displays the updated durability as long as the page is current. So, how much redundancy is acceptable? In the real world redundancies cost money that shouldn't need to be spent, so the best and cheapest solution is education.

Maybe make it similar to how the text changes from Green to Yellow to Red in your stash, based on the durability?

I think if the boxes of your equipped gear changed color so you knew their (rough) durability that would be useful. Yeah, it is easy enough to check manually, but the little details are the ones that are noticed most often, I think.

+1 for red boxes on broken items

Some sort of visual indicator in the showroom seems reasonable. I'd probably bundle that with the still-far-off showroom overhaul though. Not sure how I feel about sending bmails - it does sound a little hand-holdy.

But ed...we like hand holding :)
