Smelt armor and weapons
Let us smelt our weapons and armos in a forge to get scrap metal or add another way to get scrap metal, because it's really hard to farm scrap metal

OrthoPH MergedI don't know yet if metal scraps can be crafted or can be mined in "ore resources", but it's pretty rare to find given that it is a "common" item and majority of other items are depending on it. But if ever it is only found in loot or destroying object that obviously has metal on it, I hope in the future that it can be mined in ores like flintstone.

CWThis is a good idea. It seems like you never really outgrow needing metal scraps so having to farm mobs who drop a piece or two sometimes is frustrating. I would like to be able mine all metal. And if not, salvaging gear for metal scraps would be better than nothing.

imouro MergedIt would be interesting to be able to destroy the weapons that we do not need and get material from them, currently it only allows us to "delete" them without getting anything in return.

OmegaI don't find metal scrap that hard to find, just gotta farm those spots where you fight the dudes with no faces. The double scythe and archer dudes in the little towns. They nearly always drop scrap, and in those towns there is quite a bit of it on shelves and such.

Also, smash things! Smashing things even remotely looking to be made of metal usually drops metal scrap. -

David Mergedwas thinking it might be nice if some things that you loot, like shields or something, you may have an option to scrap for materials. BTW, loving the game!

TaylerBootzIf you break a lot of things it's fairly easy to get a decent amount of scrap but it takes awhile. Usually metal sounding items drop it. Carts with cages, metal framed cots, etc. Otherwise, yes, it's pretty rare. Resin is my huge problem right now. I agree that a common item should be more common.

DavidThe way that metal scraps are gathered is just weird, there definitely needs to be some system for mining and using ores.

Cowboy124aa MergedI would like to see a way to recycle weapons, when you recycle them you get wood, and/or scrap metal or some kind of magic for the wands and staffs. If a weapon has the bonuses on them you get a portion of that coin back. Higher tier weapons and Armor could give back Metal plates, scrap and animal fur. Find scrap metal when you need it can be a pain to find sometimes especially when you need it for so many items that require it for crafting. Recycling can make it a bit easier.

Hurtzu MergedEverything should be salvageable to get some basic resources back.

ElelForgottenGathering resources can be pretty grindy. Getting mats back would help reduce that. New NPC - the Salvager, lol.

UberNormanJust raid enemy bases, they are a haven for scrap metal in defences and their bodies.
