Infusion extractor
Sounds like there is a need for Perfect Salvage kits as in GW1. Removal of infusions, runes, and sigils without destroying the target item. That would mean changing the rule that ascended items to salvageable. Wouldn’t everyone love that.

Quite honestly, I don’t see that happening.
One reason being that we already have the Black Lion Salvage Kit, which is a Gem Store item. A kit that removed infusion/rune/sigil without destroying the item would be blatantly superior, thus making the Black Lion Kit obsolete. Making an item that you can buy for real life money obsolete is always a dangerous thing.
Another reason being that salvaging is balanced around the item getting destroyed. Even now, you can still find cases where an exotic item with a sigil has a price that is basically identical to buying the sigil alone. Being able to remove it and keep the weapon would make a pretty big mess out of the current exotics.
Yet another reason is the Transmutation Splitter.
Though I have to say that I don’t quite like the idea of being able to remove your infusion without destroying the original item. Reason being that if you could remove it, then the whole point of the costs escalating is moot, as you will be able to put in the best infusion and upgrade it whenever you please.
If anything, they should start considering being able to salvage craftable Ascended gear.
