How do I properly extract this Superior Rune of Vigor? - Page 2 - Guild Wars Forums

Player armor - Loss possible.
Enemy armor - Loss not possible.

Farming for them? Sheesh I haven't found one yet... is there a certain spot or enemy that tends to drop them?

Xenrath · Nov 09, 2005, 10:41 AM // 10:41

They should really change that possible loss for salvaging runes off your own armour. It sucks hugely losing them especially if they were expensive to buy!

just wanted to say that I used an expert salvage kit today while America had favor and I successfully got the Superior Rune of Vigor! thanks again!

Nice one... but who ever has the favour has NOTHING to do with it. Someone is having you on.

I know that I used Superior salvage on the superior vigor armour BOTH times.I would NEVER be so dumb as to use a reg salvage kit on something that important.Like I said, it gave me a Major instead of Superior rune

unienaule · Nov 09, 2005, 11:51 PM // 23:51

Not possible. Probably it was just a gold armor of vigor, and you assumed it was superior, when most of the time gold armors give major runes.

If it says its a superior rune then there is no possible way that it can give anything else besides materials, but even then if you expert salvaged it you should get the sup rune for sure,

darkMishkin · Nov 10, 2005, 12:30 PM // 12:30

If you ID first it tells you exactly what rune it is.
If you Expert Salvage first it tells you what level of rune it is, and which profession line it comes from.

The only reason I can see to salvage first is if you've already unlocked every rune on your account, so you can give it to a guildy to ID for himself or something.

2nd: I've never lost a rune except from my own armour.

I found this beauty today, I have been planning on buying one but this is just great! I just hope I don't mess up the extraction.

So what should I use on this? Expert Salvage kit? should I buy a superior salvage kit?

Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

Well, all you need to do is look up my IGN, then click on it. Next click on the trade button. After this opens, put it into the trade slot of choice and click accept. I will take it from there and salvage it!

Anything I can do to help a fellow player!

How could Gold armor thats states in Gold Increases max health turn out to be a Purple major--Makes no sence

whatever

Lasareth · Nov 11, 2005, 03:22 AM // 03:22

Major runes = purple
Major rune'd gold armors = gold

Therefore, salvaging a gold item with a major mod will yield a purple rune.

Ta-da

Blue armors salvage into minors only.
Purple armors can have minors (blue) or majors (purple).
Gold armors can have majors (purple) or superiors (gold).
That's how it's been.
