Guild Wars 2

I salvaged 4 items. 3 level 80 rare with some rune/sigil in it, and a lvl70 rare with no sigil.

I use master salvage kit. The 3 lvl80 rare I get the rune/sigil and basic material mithril ore/wood. The lvl70 rare I get wood.

Is that normal? What’s the chance to get ectos from salvaging rare with master salvaging kit? And I’m not sure where to get better salvaging kit. I can’t afford to buy black lion key to try to open chest to have a chance to get good salvaging kit etc…

Can someone explain to me?

I think you need higher level stuff to get ectos. They are somewhat random.

You got unlucky, unfortunately. To my knowledge, rares level 70+ can give 0 to 3 ecto when salvaged, weighted toward the 0 end. You can use master kits, your luck will turn around. Otherwise, complete daily reward, they have a small chance to give you a black lion kit.

Level 68+, not 70.
And as far as I know the tier of salvage kits does not matter, people have gotten globs by salvaging with the most basic kit that has 0% chance on rarer materials. The rare materials chance only affect upgrades to t6 mats like ori and ancient wood.
