There are examples on the keep how to do this softcoded, no code editing required. True Mage posted info.

Not entirely, IIRC the durability check is for equipped items only, and charms don't fall under that category.

Plus the only example I could find about charms with durability were for an unrepairable charged scroll like effect.

Yes, but the example was for ethereal charms.

Which is done by giving the charm an itype such as armor.
Doable to give the charm durability, but still does not diminish the durability over time, which is the goal in question.

Giving a charm durability is easy, but the question is really related to how you want it to lose durability. Standard D2 rolls a chance to diminish durability during the attack/defense routines, but charms are really used there, but can be easily added.

Well that's a different answer than what Nefarius stated, but hey thats cool. I'll be testing that soon to see how it goes.

Someone has succeeded in making it.
His mod use death to lose durability for charms.
But i know i can't get the answer from him.

Durability is nothing but a stat, and when the durability check reduces it to 0, it sets the ITEM_BROKEN flag, which tells the item requirements handler that you can't use the item. We are talking CE here, so easy is a relative term.

In this case, all you do is hook the player death routine (the same one that spawns corpses, costs you exp and gold), iterate the inventory items, check for itemtype of charm, its identified and if its durability is >0 (or that it isn't broken already, the latter is faster), then you can roll your chance to decrement the durability, if it reaches 0, you set the ITEM_BROKEN flag.
