Guild Wars 2

Only equipped items are repaired. Items in the inventory are not repaired.

When repairing armor via NPC, e.g. Antonin in Lions Arch, all items are repaired, equipped or in the inventory of the current character. Therefore, I would expect the canister to work the same way, especially as the tooltip does not say otherwise.

The way it works right now, repairing only equipped items, makes it very annoying to use, when often swapping items with stats for different situations, e.g. open world solo, open world big events, dungeons, WvW.

It’s supposed to be a spray. I don’t think the can has enough for your body and your bag.

I always get completely naked and lay out all items on the ground, including those from my bags. Then I apply the spray evenly. It just seems as if it does not have any effect on items from the inventory, for no good reason.

I’ve only had to repair items I have currently equipped so have no idea whether or not anything I might have swapped out would be repaired in my inventory. Usually is not a problem if you use the repair canister on what you are wearing at that time.
