They're useful for 15k monk armor I think.

But that's a pretty good salvage. I've gotten 40 wood, 40 something granite, once even 5 steel. But 61 is a new one for me

the sad thing is that the Iron is prolly worth about double what the granite is worth

I've got similar salvages. On a side note one time I picked up a stack of 7 somethings that were worth roughly 100 gold each. Made a pretty penny. Don't remember the exact item or location though

That granite will get you what, 183 gold? I've gotten a couple steel before, so that tops yours. :-D But really, that's awesome. 61 of anything is really cool.

I got 65 wood planks from a staff before... that was insane.

I've also gotten 5 steel from a sword, I think.

What salvage kit did you use, regular or expert?

61 slabs are worth about 180 gold though.... not bad in that perspective.

Highest rare material salvage has been 3 steel ingots from an item I don't recall.

Highest regular material salvage has been in the 30's of wood planks from a bow.

I was just gonna mention how heavy it must've been. I mean, "Granite Slab" sure doesn't sound light by any means. And you're carrying 71 of them? In your left hand? Sheez!

I once salvaged 13 steel ingots from one buckler... it's a bit of a mystery since the buckler picture looked like it was made of wood...

Granite slabs were good for crafting skill charms back in the day, but since you can't do that anymore, just sell them with a bunch of other stuff. When I have too many materials I just sell all of it in one go at 10 per or cheaper and only in a single load. Means I get rid of everything.

Did anyone else notice that if you get a normal item, or a highly salvagable item from say ascalon, and you use an expert salvage kit on it, you get less then you would from a normal salvage kit? Test it out yourself.

WOW, must have been a heavy healing ankh! Poor monks, lol.

My best salvage was a superior rune of fire magic but that's kinda cheating the topic.
Wood planks in the 30's is my best i think.

I think my best rare material salvage was 3 steel from some sword. On a related note, anybody notice the high salvage rate from the stuff dropped in Fissure? Stuff like Dark Remains, Umbral Skeletal Limbs, and several others, which have no apparent use other than to sell/salvage. I've always gotten between 12-20 of each material from each item salvaged, which is pretty nice methinks. Of course, it's probably better to just sell them to the merchant for the 60 gold each, eh? (Depends on what you get from them I suppose...)

best salvage I got was 2 bolts of linen from salvaging a web with an expert salvage kit. But I did get a 20 bone drop once near Riverside Province.
