annoying salvage bug? - Guild Wars Forums

GODh · Dec 08, 2006, 12:01 AM // 00:01

scenario: bags full

normal salvage kit: i can salvage an item

sup salvage kit: i get an error saying that bags are full --> no salvage

whats the logic of this??

Logic? You expect logic in a fantasy game?

But, seriously. Just drop an item on the ground so you have an empty space. After salvaging, pick up the dropped item. Problem solved.

Yes but that solution makes it annoying

actually this is really annoying, even if u have the same type of material that the item salvages into it still says no room. The way they made it is it wont stack >_> even when u have bolts of cloth and the item salvages into cloth

This is because there is now a chance to not destroy the item you are salvaging from when using an expert salvage kit. Yes it might not make sense when you're only after materials but that's the way it is since the new salvage system went live.

This started occurring just before nightfall was released. It is annoying.

I know its since NF came out.

but the chance to now break/destory the item doesnt even apply here.
White armor you salvage it... What else can it turn into? a rune.... insignia? no just fricken crafting mats, and it still makes you remove a slot, even if u have the same materials stacking in your inventory...
I think maybe they didnt have the thing be able to tell white armor/weapons from blue/purple/gold that do have dual salvage mods etc?

sorry I'm not good with game mechanics >_>

You can't even use an exp/sup salvage kit on a *white* salvage item if your bags are full and you have 1 of each common material in your bags. I've tried it.
