salvaging vs selling

Based upon the price of salvaged materials on the forum and the price you get in store it seems much more efficient to just click sell all and then keep grinding rather than wasting time manually going through and salvaging. Am I incorrect in this assertion?

Also can a single item salvage multiple mats and is this reflected in the salvage screen message?

Unforged single item gives single material. The material type depends on the item type.
Weapon, Heavy: Metals
Staff, Shield: Wood
Cloth: Cloth
Light: Leather

If you salvage forged item, it returns 80% material and bindings invested. (90% on max lvl forge)
http://ehwiki.org/wiki/forge#Forge_Level
Note that the number of return is floored; you can't get all the material and bindings you already used.

And the grade of material depends on item's grade or pxp.
The higher pxp of the item, the higher the material you could get.

Hello,

I've got a question regarding Spell costs. On the wiki (ehwiki.org/wiki/Spells) it says that the spell costs are calculated using the formula:

Spell Cost = roundup((Level * Base_cost))


Before accounting for mana conservation, interference, burden, etc.

Since I'm at level 128, that would mean eg that casting Fiery Blast would cost roundup(5% * 128), which would be roundup(6.4) = 6 or 7? I have zero interference and burden (Ethereal, w00t) and 98.2% mana conservation.



So why do all my tier-one elemental spells (the only ones I have) cost 8MP? Have the formulae changed recently?

The formula should also incorporate the prof factor, but right now we don't have the exact factor. Probably wait till later patches when we have more information.
(Yes we can deduce that, but it means more workload for something that will be uncovered eventually)

Most of that information I understood from the wiki but thank you anyway.

Could anybody offer some real world examples of 'chances'? or is that information not available?

Is there a chance I can get a high grade material from say a superior?

The way I see it so far is that high grade stuff is the only real reason to salvage. The mid and low grade stuff when you factor in the time it takes to salvage vs the time it takes to click sell all, you can quite easily make the difference up in doing another arena. [based upon current market values] Again is this incorrect? Am I wrong?

If superior has any meaningful chance to get HG, why do ppl sell it to bazzar instead of salvaging it? (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Well, on my experience and observation, 325~330 pxp has approximately 20~25% chance to get HG material.
Below that pxp, it has less chance to get HG, and vice versa.

Probably not, better use that stamina and time to level up in high difficulty arena instead

Superior should never be IW'd, it's simply not worth your time.

Thanks ,two helpful experts.

You can easily increase your proficiencies when your level is high enough. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Here is my case done yesterday. It took about half-day long:


DW: 35.48 -> 272.11 (+236.63)
Light: 10.47 -> 336.13 (+325.66)

Can Elemental Strikes Proc Status Effects? I wanna know for both cases:
Case-1: True Elemental Weapons.
Case-2: Infusion Enhancement.

If you mean status effects like searing skin or freezing limbs, nope.
Offensive spells and spike shield can proc them.

So pretty much... I can do nothing of value until I'm high enough a level. Great. ._.

What're those red numbers by the stats?

red numbers are the bonus attributes gained from Cats Lover cashing in artifacts to the shrine.

It seems you sold a large amount of artifacts for credits.

As Slobber said, the red number stat is given by the artifact.

http://ehwiki.org/wiki/Character_Stats#Alternative_Sources
Offering an Artifact at the Shrine can provide a permanent +1 increase to one primary attribute. This caps at 1/10 the player's level per stat. This is capped at +50 per attribute once a player reaches level 500.

It seems you sold a large amount of artifacts for credits.

I sold many stuff including crystals and artifacts for credits, and I got Crystarium III just now at last.
Now it's a good day to grind! (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
