Bound Items will still take damage. Its just that they won't take permanent damage. You still have to repair your dragon armor - which still means farming relics* - and you still have to repair all that uber raid gear you have.

* and you'll be farming them more often than previously .. My cleric's dragon armor has had about 15% total damage in the 2 months she's been wearing it .. and we're talking about the black armor getting chewed on by those uber-hasted rats in the orchard every couple of seconds! So 10% each time you die is a huge increase in damage - even if its not permanent, its still more time you'll spend farming relics for repairs.
Totally incorrect!

You can run just ONE of the Relic quests to gain enough to repair your armor.


Ok, maybe two if your unlucky.
