Guild Wars 2

I know that I can get crafting materials by salvaging equipments and some white items, but I’m not sure if I should be doing that, since I can make some money by selling the equipments directly to Trading Post. Is there a “guideline” on what to salvage and what to sell? Thanks.

(I’m currently at Lvl 30)

You can get more money by selling mats then gear. Especially cloth. Salvage everything you don’t want to equip. Whites, blues, greens with green kit, sell yellow weapons, salvage yellow armor with yellow kit to get ectos. Exotics is your choice, sell or salvage for ectos, runes and sigils and globs of dark matter.

Thanks a lot Will do that

When you salvage rares, use Mystic salvage kit(look it up on the wiki). For exotics, look on to if they are sold higher than current price for ecto and sell or use Black Lion salvage kit(or Mystic in worst case scenario). If you, however, want Globs of Dark matter, used in crafting ascended stuff, salvage all exotics. Since i want the Globs, i sell exotics priced higher than 1 gold.
