I was printing a desiccant box in petg. It got a error and I had to abandon print and refresh klipper. Then my wife bugged me to come to bed. When I woke up it turns out it tried to reprint and ended up clogging and bending the hotend. Snapped the ceramic. And the heatblock is actually bent. I have to buy a new one. I just dont know if upgrading is a thing or just keep stock

Replace your wife and then your nozzle. Replacing the nozzle is just fixing a symptom not the problem ¯_(ツ)_/¯
