Guild Wars 2

Here’s an idea that might help with inventory clutter: Adding a feature to “mass salvage” the inventory (This ignores invisible bags).

Here is how it works:

1. You set a rarity threshold for automatic salvaging (i.e. salvage all items fine and below).
2. You designate what kit to use for what type of rarity class (i.e. basic salvage kit for all common and fine items, master salvage kit for all rares, mystic salvage kit for all items).
3. Press mass salvage button on inventory. Confirmation window shows up and you approve it.

No offense I love the idea but I’d have to replace 1/2 of my bags with invisible 4 sets of armor and about 13 dif weapons. idk about you but I dont really want to salvage my legendary on accident because of mass salvage I’d rather pick and choose like it currently is. this being that I ONLY use mystic I mean achievements and had almost a stack of stones -.-

if it only worked on the salvage items and not anything else. even white blue or geen weapons i would be for it

The day you forgot to put that ‘keeper’ in an invisible bag…is the day you’ll wish the ‘mass salvage inventory’ idea never happened.
There’s just too much human error involved to make something like this fully automated – doubt we’ll ever see it.

Problem:
which salvage kit to use? only one kind? could be a problem if you are salvaging 20 things and have one kit with 1-20 uses and another with 25… you could end up with 2 kits and both are almost empty… (so order of the kits is not the best idea… number of uses is left —> should work)
what if you want to use a better kit for the green stuff?? How to select that?

Big problems:
maybe there are valuable upgrades in the item… maybe you want to check… but then you could salvage all the stuff while doing that…

the server would have to generate and send the same amount of results in a shorter time… hopefully we will never see a “salvage of death” attack where several 100 players have full stacks in 150 slots of their 160 slot inventory (some room to collect the results) and click on “salvage” the same time (with the endless salvage kit)…

Should be enough if there was an option like
“Stop bugging me, I know what I do, so stop asking me ‘Are you sure …?’ [yes/no]”
that will stop this dialog.
Should/Could be like “Don’t ask when [common, master, rare, exotic] or lower”
with a drop down to select the max rarity.

—> you could salvage “all” the items without searching the kit to select/double click it again… (ok, when it is empty, but not after every item)

As an alternative, you could specify which bags are subject to mass salvage.

This would not happen because you determine the rarity threshold and other categories eligible for mass salvage. By default “mass salvage” affects zero rarity categories and you must specify which can be salvaged, from exotic and below.

That’s exactly what we need, or at least would be a step in the right direction. With the newly implemented achievement points reward, I am now stockpiling mystic forge stones, which I’m using to make salvage kits. I would very much like so to be able to rapidly click to salvage, without having to confirm for a measly Masterwork item. “Oh, you’re level 80, fully geared with exotics? Are you SURE you don’t want that Masterwork armor?” Yeah Anet, I’m very sure, and getting tired of your kittens.
