Hi,
You can alter the durability of TC(painful 1!) by clicking on the hidden shrine while wearing only TC
You'll never get the TC above durability 1 that way. The way a Hidden shrine works (IIRC) is that it increases the durability of each of the possible items by 10, then decreases one by 20. It will never set an item below 1, so the TC would never increase.
The right way to do it is to wear four items (hat, shirt, shield and weapon) if possible. Then the probability of improving the TC is 75% (ignoring the initialization error bug). If you only wear three items (hat, shirt, two handed weapon), then the odds for improving the TC drop to 66%,
Some people recommend using junk gear in the other three slots. That's stupid. With four items, each Hidden shrine will increase the durability of each item by 5 on the average. If you wear all good gear, in the long run it all gets better. If you wear junk, then you end up with high durability junk (or, more likely, you end up throwing away an average of 15 durability points per shrine).
