What is the better use for prestige armor after dedicating it? Salvage, Sell it, or something else?

Thanks

Keep it?

You can try to salvage it but you arent likely to get much mats out of most.

No one else can use your armor so the only person that will "buy it" will be the merchant.

If you don't want to use it, salvage imo.

some people use different sets for different things (like 55 monk)....I have sets for my characters for different reasons--like warrior with stonefist gloves etc.

otherwise if you dont want it you can merch it, or stuff it into storage (salvage will usually net you mostly common mats).

I've got 5 sets of armor for my main - one for normal PvE play, one set for playing FA/JQ, another set simply for hanging out in town on holidays, and the other 2 just for the occasional change of pace.

Most of the other armor sets I got on other characters I added to my HoM and then salvaged.

As Cosyflep suggested, I use my Elite Luxon just for Vaettir Farming as it saves swapping out Runes/insignias etc.
But I also have ones I do not want to salvage/ sell so just sit in storage.

The sets of real note for potential salvage are the Obsidian and Vabbian sets. The legs and chest have a high chance to salvage into several of the rare ingredients used, allowing some return on the investment. Other sets will provide far less return due to the lower-cost materials used and thus salvaged.

This, of course, assumes you don't want to use the set, but just wanted it for the Hall.

Whatever floats your boat, but you won't get a significant amount of materials from salvaging it, and you can only sell it to the merchant. So, it just comes down to whether you want to keep it or not.
