Salvage crafted items

1.2K votes

We need an option to salvage previously crafted items that are now taking up inventory space. Deleting them feels like a waste.

salvaging armour in general would be nice

I think that being able to recycle your old weapons rather than just having runes to spend is a much better option. Deleting stuff almost is a slap in the face cause you are literally removing time spent from the game never to be seen again.

I know we can now salvage some weapons for runes, which is fine, I'd REALLY like to have something we could do to get some materials back from armor. I do not expect a full refund just a few pieces of fur maybe or metal scraps?

You can disassemble armor and weapons and use the runes to upgrade your favorite armor. It's a great solution.

Conan Exiles had a crafted dismantling bench. You could put virtually anything into it and get some materials back. A similar mechanism would be great. It feels very wasteful to delete items, particularly in a survival game.

Can we please get the option to salvage armor/rings as well as weapons? and it would be nice if we could upgrade those as well.

Allow us to more usefully "dispose" of obsolete/unwanted items than simply removing them from inventory.
For example, decrafting armor can give metal ingots or leather.
Decrafting some components sounds better than getting a few dozen more runes ^^"

Why not make Crafted items be Salvaged into crafting materials (e.g. 50% of resources spent on crafting is returned after this action)?

would be nice to do this with all of the found rings as well. Can't salvage armor items either.

Not only crafted. All Equipment (Armors, Rings, Shields, Crafted Equipment) should be in some way "recycable"... either by turning them all into Runes, or by doing something else meaningful with it (like returning some of the materials used for crafting them or something like that for the crafted Equipment).

Especially building blocks. I have a ton of rough stone blocks as I've replaced them with a newer material. Let me break them back down to raw stone.

Not just armor but things like storage boxes etc.
Those magic chests cost some fancy mats and as we progress to making larger ones we lose all the prior investment.

Would be amazing if we could just upgrade boxes instead of having to empty them and then start over with a new one!

Salvage any items would be more like it!

THIS. Also, make it so you can salvage the other gears like armor and shield. etc.

Being able to recycle an item would be nice, whether you've crafted it or collected from your travels would be nice. I've deleted so many things purely because I don't have the space to keep them. I could be using the things from those items to create something I need.

Armor and rings need to be salvageable or recyclable. Runes or crafting mats would be nice.
