So are you thinking in advance and salvaging everything?
Since the new addition of the wonderer who seems to be traveling towards Lions Arch (just an assumption) Have you been keeping and salvaging all drops just to stock up on items... Just in case?

I would if my storage wasn't pretty well stocked of materials now.
His earlier dialogue did say he'd move through the Shiverpeaks, down to Kryta and then perhaps the Crystal Desert (or similar wordage)...kind of advanced notice to collect from those areas.

my prediction, is it will be something rare everytime, but also something that is worth crap. Spiritwood planks, silk, fur.
Why wasn't this one fur anyway, wasn't he making a f'ing blanket. What is Nicholas part of PETA or something?

Who is the "wonderer"? You mean the traveler?

If he starts collecting ectos or shards, he better give me about five minis and/or everlasting items.
In answer to the OP: no. I have too many damn materials as is, here's hoping he starts wanting Steel Ingots for about three months straight.

I generally salvage most of my drops anyway (at the very least, all armor drops get salvaged, weapons and collector items do depending on what they'll salvage into) as it is, so yeah.

I believe it will always be a dropped item just like other collectors, Char Carving, Spider Web, Drake Flesh, Etc. Force you to go out and collect rather than just run to a merchant and purchase. That seems too easy!!!

As far as we know, his next desired item can be anything.
From Dyes thought Tomes to Marks of Aidan.

To be honest, Materials or things that can be acquires from an NPC through gold transaction should NEVER be chosen as the items that Nicholas the Traverler should be asking.
EVERYTHING that he is looking for SHOULD be acquired through farming Collector items as drops.
Creating a situation where those privileged enough find Nicholas first and then buying up all remaining stock of an NPCs items in order to resell them at insane prices and make a fortune should NEVER happen.
These items are meant to be a reward for all for finding him, NOT a reward for those with enough gold to purchase materials from someone else who is heavily overcharging.
By sticking with Collector drops, sure you will find people farming and selling those items to those willing to buy them, but it doesnt place a few choice players in total control of a situation. Collector drops are available to all no matter what the situation and can be successfully gathered in a group of friends or people you pickup.

He doesn't take salvaged drops and he is called Nicholas the Traveler, not the wonderer.
