Gold Salvage - why did it take me so long..

Post by Town Crier » Fri Mar 17, 2006 3:41 pm

Over the last couple of months I have been making some high value DI's. I made the last one I needed a couple of weeks age, and then had what I thought was a brillant idea! Salvage all gold and then apply it to the highest value item I loot and thereby increasing my 'take' by several thousand coins (I am Guru so have Item Tink)! So I tried it for a couple of days, and was quite pleased with myself as on one trip I increased a 42,000 item to a value of over 85,000! Then a couple of days ago, just as I was about to use the salvage on my best item, I happened to look up at the value of the bag of gold.... to my amazement the value of the gold was 96,000!!! And that is when I realized I was losing more money in this process by using the gold instead of just selling the bags!! From now on I am salvaging all gold and selling it with the rest of my loot. Anyone else doing this?
