Salvaging Exotics - new patch
my guess would be number 3, but at the moment nobody knows for sure
I don’t attract, I don’t repel. That’s kinda odd
in around 8 hours, the experimentation will begin. You’ll likely hear more soon thereafter.

I wonder what your basis for comparison is…”

I’m hoping for number 4.
Chance at Glob(s) of Dark Matter AND Glob(s) of Ectoplasm.
I’ve no need for Dark Matter, but only for ectos…
In my whole time of more than 6 months in gw2 I have found I think 2 exotics, and I need to salvage them now?

Yep, if you wanted Ascended gear. Welcome to the treadmill.
My posts are facts as I know them, or my own opinion, and do not represent any guild.
If you buy the right ones and salvage them, the sigil/rune will offset or pay for the cost with a shot at Ecto(s). In some cases you can make a profit even with a 0 Ecto return.
Also to skill up to 500 (or really, to 450) we can make exotics via discoveries, so I plan on salvaging those, too.

I thought I read crafted exotics will NOT produce dark matter on salvage.

Do you remember where you read that? I figured it’d be all exotics. It’d be really lame if anet didn’t let us get those materials from crafted exotics, and with their rng crap these days, I’m sure it could go either way, really. (Though I am leaning more toward getting the new materials from crafted exotics. I always got plenty of ectos back, though never as many as I put in. lol)

Does anyone know if salvaging Exos will result in :
1. Chance at Glob(s) of Dark Matter only
2. Chance at Glob(s) of Dark Matter OR Glob(s) of Ectoplasm
3. Chance at Glob(s) of Dark Matter AND/OR Glob(s) of Ectoplasm
?
4. 0.000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of Dark Matter, and 0.00000000001% chance of Ectoplasm
Where are my gem sales? I want gem sales! Nerf EVERYTHING!

I can’t find where I heard/saw this, but I swear there was something ‘bad’ or limited about crafted exotics versus dropped exotics. I threw some crafted rares in the forge yesterday to get a ‘forged’ exotic to see if that would work instead.
Hopefully once the release is out we will hear some experimentation results.
I am also hoping we don’t need to be using Black Lion Salvage kits and that maybe Mystic Salvage kits will get decent drop rates for Dark Matter and Ectoplasm.
