I realize karma items cannot be salvaged, and I think I understand why that restriction is in place. However I’d like to suggest a small modification to that restriction in that upgrades we apply ourselves could be salvaged back out. I’m not suggesting that we be able to salvage out a mod that sold with the item, however if we apply our own mod and replace the one that sold with the item, it would be great to be able to salvage that mod back out.
I don’t believe this additional functionality would cause problems for gameplay or item balance. I know it would help improve enjoyability to not need to permanently apply a nice mod on a karma item that will only be used for a few levels.
