"Let's clean up and rebuild the Keep!"
‎Padrig Dower reckons that this article could do with some additional content and cleaning up to bring it into its full glory. So, do you think that you could help a gnome out?

Using the Blacksmithing skill on the Blacksmith Forge, you can breakdown equipment and salvage some of its parts. These parts can then be used to craft the weapons and armor you need.

Each item can be salvaged into exactly four predictable components that depend on the item type. Three components are common and one is uncommon. The salvaged components are sometimes different from the components used to craft the item. Common items drop about 50% of the time and uncommon items drop about 10% of the time (needs verification).

  • - Salvaged components differ from crafting components.

Components[]

The component must be listed below and the equipment item must drop the component type for the component to be possible (may not be a complete list). Unfortunately, many equipment items have stats that cannot be salvaged into components. Default means that this component is salvaged when no other component is possible. The components can be of varying quality: Basic, Improved, Greater, Master or Flawless.

Core components (dowel, cloth, chestpiece, etc.) always can drop so they are not listed here.

Notes[]

  • The skill level of your blacksmithing does not appear to change the salvage results. Each salvage attempt appears to be random: you may salvage nothing, or you may salvage all available components from a piece of armor or weapon. If you find an item with a desirable stat, provided the stat is a salvagable component, save your game just before attempting to salvage and then reload the save if you do not obtain it. If, say, after 10 or so tries you do not obtain the component, you are either extremely unlucky or the stat is not a salvagable component.
  • Some components seem to have a much higher chance of salvage than others. For example, components with offensive stats not exclusive to weapons, such as grips and bindings with +x% Elemental Damage, can be considerably harder to salvage than others.
    • Also, apparently the third component simply doesn't get salvaged as often as the others.(10% vs 50%)
  • It is possible to use gems to strengthen some components to flawless, although it is unclear whether this is a bug or not. After extensive testing, it would appear that ALL primary support components for weapons (fulcrums, grips, shafts, etc.) using weapon gems can be improved. SOME combinations of secondary components (rivets, lining, etc.) using utility gems can be improved. Extensive testing has all but eliminated the possibility of using epic gems to improve components.
  • It is unclear as of yet whether certain stats in particular cannot be improved with gems, or whether their improvement chances depend on the component the stat is on. For more on this issue see discussion.
  • When salvaging an item it is possible to get the same stat on different components. For intance, if you salvage a Longsword with a health bonus, it is possible that the health bonus can be added to either the rivets or the grip component. (Not entirely sure if this particular example is accurate, it's just an attempt to explain this function.) In some rare cases, it is also possible to get two components with the same stat, even if the original item only required one component to add the stat.
    • Based on comparing this data set: Marhawkman/SalvagedDemo1 to salvaging regular items, it would appear that this phenomenon only happens with player crafted gear. Looted gear does not have variation on what components can be salvaged, just variation in which components actually get salvaged.
      • It's possible the game has a data table stored telling it what to produce when salvaging looted items. This data table does not exist for crafted gear, thus when salvaging crafted gear the game tries to guess, based solely on item stats, what stats salvaged components should have.
  • Each item you salvage can yield up to three components at once. It is unlikely that the level of blacksmithing skill affects the chance of getting more components at once, but if you save your game just before salvaging and keep trying you will eventually get three components from one salvage.
