Salvaging Guide
esthetic
So I have bout 800 random gold drops that I will ID. I will salvage out the salvage insc. but where should I put the salvage insc. to salvage? Any quick and easy guide on what yields some rare drops? and does the salvage insc. increase the chance of rare salvages?

I believe it does increase rare mats, but I'm not sure. So I'd say add it to things like ruby mauls or ruby daggers, or anything in general that you want more mats/rare mats from.

+1 For Ruby items, I tend to get a pretty good ratio of Rubies from them

And another +1 on ruby items, jeweled daggers (think it is) works too, gives sapphires. I have done some salvaging of ruby items with the insc, I would say it's about a ruby ea third/fourth item I salvage. Used to do this a lot when I was chestrunning in "Mirror of the lyss".

True guide:
Salvage white/blue non-increased-value, that give iron/dust/granite, using lowbie salvage kits (4g/per).
Use highly salv insc on golds worth more than 320g (without increased-value - 4g/per), or on jeweled/ruby/etc (use superior! 20g/per). I've gotten about 8 rubies this way, and I've gotten 145 dust off ~320g conch's.

Awsm, Now i know that if one day, maybe a year away, if i ever step my feet onto PvE grounds, i will know what to salvage with what kit. GG

From raptor farming, I only salvage with the inscript off conches and sageblades gold/purp. The rest I find dont yield too much. Conches usually +90dust sageblades +30iron.
If you chestrun vabbi, u would get those gemmed item, like ruby maul, jeweled dags. Can get saphs or rubies off of those. Most ive gotten is 2 on one salvage.

Not sure about the rest of you, but I had terrible luck with ruby mauls...the daggers were great, and jeweled dags even better.
Jeweled staffs, however, won't give you the rare drop you want.

+1 to jeweled daggers/ruby mauls..and while you are in vabbi - kill all the beetles, geodes salvage into rare gems 1/15 for me

Sorry, I don't have a screenshot but I stuck a Measure for Measure on a gold Iridescent Aegis and it salvaged into ONE pile of glittering dust. I'm thinking that it might have "rolled over" the 250 max back to 1.

Same here, I have salvaged well over 50 ruby mauls from the Norn area, put highly salvage insc etc on them and have never had one ruby

Jeweled staves will give you a butt-load of scales if you slap a measure for measure on one....best one for me so far 132 scales off one salvage
