Wow, finally found my first yellow/orange/gold (whatever color it was supposed to be) item. It was a Beastmaster Armor during the Borliss Pass quest.

Identified it and found out it had a Major Rune of Healing. Suffice to say I was quite excited as this would sell for a hefty sum.

Then... I /cried as the Expert Salvage gave me 3 Iron Ingots.

I identified a blue/cyan item and once identified, it turned white, because it has no special property... (was a rather high level item). I also have encountered many (about 2 or 3 post-release, 2-4 more pre-release) purple-named armors which identify with no special stats (but name still remains purple).

Expert salvage kits have about 80% chance of salvaging a rune from a special stated armor I've found.

I had a zealous axe of fortitude, and got the fortitude rune out of it instead of the zealous.

Going from Yak's Bend to The Gates of Kryta, I found no less than seven purple salvage items. Every single one of them had great stuff... and salvaged into common materials.

I've never been so frustrated in my life. I didn't even think that was possible.

Yeah, I have a Zealous bow of Fortitude and I am a bit worried about salvaging it...I really hope I get the zealous part...

I also had a Zealous Axe of Fortitude.

I got three wood planks out of it.

sounds more like you need "/noob" than you do "/cry"
