Hi folks. Today at approximately 17:10 UK time, I was clearing my characters bags from a previous fractal run, accidentally salvaging the moot precursor, the energizer. I only acquired it a couple of nights ago but have been working towards the new legendary, buying recipes such as gift of entertainment and working towards map completion. I am very doubtful that anything will be done about this, but I suppose making this thread is a last hope as I really don’t feel like playing or progressing any more in this game if the error cannot be reversed.

Just as a note too, I really do believe that the icons need to be altered for precursors and several other items in game. The energizer icon is the same as a basic white rarity weapon! Its ludicrous. I certainly wouldn’t have salvaged it if the icon was unique but the deed is done. I have also had similar problems with Norn cultural armor, sharing the same icons as the items that come in dozens waiting to be salvaged.

Please, even if you cannot restore or reverse my idiotic actions, take some of the points I mention into consideration to stop others from making similar mistakes.

While I am doubtful anything can be done, you would need to open a ticket with support.
Top of page, left hand side “Support”, then top of page, right hand side “Submit a request”.
Good luck.

Do you not have to type The name of The item into a box to salvage a precurser this should be a fair warning

I wouldn’t submit a ticket. The end result will be the same: Anet will not assist you in undoing a mistake.

Please be more careful in the future.

Precursors do not require the typing of a name, but they do have a confirmation window.

Thanks a bunch, I sent a report ticket in and explained the date and time I salvaged it, later receiving an in game mail with a fresh Energizer! Hopefully this new bag rarity will stop me from reenacting such a mistake :P I’m very surprised yet glad that arena net acknowledged it.

Cheers for your help and replies, always double check what you salvage!

So you need to enter The name of something like a black lion salvage kit but not a precurser a much rarer and more valuble item seems a little odd to me but….
