    If anyone is looking at this let me tell you! I started with copper fed for blues and greens and i never lost money. Everything else is just min maxing. With current mechanics DO NOT attempt to extract runes and sigils from greens. You will blow your brains out, just rune-craft salvage them or copper fed, works fine. not as efficient but it still works.
    Space: More the better. But you can start off without a lot. List items on TP don't need to forge them in higher tear, they just sell slover! You don't need bunch of characters for material storage. It can help, but 5 bags on them 18 slots will be enaugh for anyone to begin
    I started with 3 bank tabs 100 inventory and built up from there. Do as much as you can handle. 10 stacks 5 stacks no wrong way to do it, just more efficient.
    And in all his ramble he didn't mention, do yourself a big favour and save Luck craft them in 200 and stack them for lunar new year! Or don't remember its just a min max!
    Buy all gemstore items, when they are on sale. But gems when price is low!
    You have a chance to get pre-cursers, i have gotten like 10+ some became legendaries, some just sold on tp. Some are still in my bank!
    Your shopping list in that order:
    Copper fed
    Shared inventory slots (5 is cheaper when on sale)
    Bank tabs up to 3 for start (if you have not unlocked 3-4 is good) Even now I have 7 dedicated for salvage. (not 8-10)
    Inventory slots 7-8 bag slots will work with 20 slot bags. Dont go crazy people!
    Start doing it and you will found out really soon what you need to be more efficient!
    Video is good in concept but ignore most of what he says - to get 10 bank slots with 10 32 slot bags, minimum of 10k gear, full shared inventory slots. coper, rune salvag, silver salvaging kits, and upgrade extractor. if you can spend 6000k gold just to get started you wouldn't be here.

    • @VirtuesOfSin
      @VirtuesOfSin Год назад

      I only extract the REALLY big runes that are worth several gold on their own, usually hidden behind armor and weapons that you wouldn't even notice it on.
      Had one weapon worth like 50 silver, but the Sigil on it was worth 5 gold. Lol

    First video I see that has ever gone into the nuances of selling vs processing. Every other bloody video just "Sure open them, salvage and sell the mats!" And every single time I do this I usually end up turning 1G of UNID Gear to 7 Silver worth of mats.

  • @TheBangooman
    @TheBangooman Год назад +9

    So, if you're a pleb like me and don't have multiple, mega expensive salvage kits/upgrade extractor + time + patience just sell the stupid unidentifieds at the auction house essentially. That's what I got from this.

    • @DreamskyDance
      @DreamskyDance Год назад +1

      Yeah..basically. Or better open the unidentifieds ( for a chance that something better drops ) salvage blue items with blue salvage kit, green items with green salvage kits, for the yellow items that seem new ( you didnt saw them a lot or dont have skin unlocked ) check the price if it is more than 10 / 15 silver sell otherwise salvage with yellow salvage kit. Exotics i check the price ( also if it is more than..let say 20 silver then i sell, otherwise i think materials you get from salvaging are worth more ) and either sell or salvage with black lion salvage kit ( i have somehow few of those around, you can buy them for that black lion statues that you get in chests when black lion key drops for you now and then... they also extract the upgrades but all other upgrades that are not on exotics are trash anyway ).. and thats it.
      You get rid of stacks and stacks of unindentifieds in less than 10 minutes and dont spend a lot of gold or gems for mega expensive salvage kits...
      Edit: ...oh you can keep track of what materials you got from salvaging and sell those right away, either dont deposit them if you have space in inventory or check how much you had before depositing so you can sell all the new stuff. You dont get much different materials either way, i think about 10 extra spaces in inventory is enough for materials you would get for salvaging. Have about 30 extra spaces... open about 20 unindentified stacks at the time, salvage those, put materials at the bottom so they group together, open new 20 uninfentified stacks, repeat.

    Exotic items -> black lion salvage thingie
    Open unidentified stuff for a chance to get something better and salvage or if it looks expensive check the price ( if more than 20 silver sell ).
    Thats it...
    No need to sink tons of gold, or real life money into that.

      @@HouseTre007 tbh..right now with bauble week at auric...it already begins to turn into a real pain. Easy to end up with just 2 stacks of greens in one evening, not to mention blues and rare stuff.
      Wish we could just set tools to salvage only *identified* green and blue automatically, but not touch unidentified..that would simplify so much and I do not get why that is not a thing.

    • @whatacoolchannel-yz1vw
      @whatacoolchannel-yz1vw Год назад

      @@HouseTre007 that's fair but even from a practicality standpoint it makes sense to min-max it. Not only do you save space long-term from the mats that would be extracted, but you get the chance to buff up your MF and open everything at the same time. This allows you to play as much as possible, and not miss any metas or group content in-between.
      Space = money, MF = money, time = money. No fucking with the inventory; instead it becomes a big to-do and almost kind of exciting.

      If have the set up to do unids, yes.
