Tool Condition

[hozz1235]

Be it: rifle, knife, hatchet, etc.

I let mine get to 20% because I've found not much breaks at that percentage or higher.

I usually do it about 70 ish percent. Mainly because I am so used to repairing my clothes at that point. 

Was also wondering if the tool condition had anything to do with harvest times or say breakdown times? You know like harvesting a deer or breaking down a crate.

Depends on the tool. I chop a lot of wood, so I usually hone my hatchet often. I don't use my knife very much at all. Hacksaw won't break until under 30% or so(I think it's still possible under 35%, unsure).  Other than that, revolver is always cleaned since it's a time-waster. I've scrapped a few prybars to repair some quality tools at 40% before. I dunno, it's a judgment call on whomever is playing the character. I know most tools won't break until under 20% with a few exceptions.

In fact, whenever I notice. Or it's get cold and I'll fix it when there's no work to be done outside.

From my observations, tool condition has no effect on breakdown/harvest times.
