IIRC, there's builds that benefit from using [Fragile] weapons, so expect an upswing in people building their characters to take advantage of the fact that they want their weapons to be [Fragile] or actually to get the Broken condition.

Spells that can repair damage to weapons and craft skills that take care of that will also see an upsurge in popularity. Mending being limited to 1 pound per CL or something like that will make lighter weight weapons more popular for a while if they have access to Mending.

Bronze or even Copper equipment will be highly prized if it's available at all, either by trade or by murderhoboing their enemies.
