Reanne.5462 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 I have now maxed magic find. I have been salvaging blues and greens for so many years now - I don't know what to do with them now. Do you continue to salvage them after maxing MF or do you just sell them, or... do I mystic forge them? Anet, what do you want me to do with these blue green drops, I obviously can't equip them. and even with MF maxed, you aren't dropping me any exotics. So maybe after we max MF we could cut out the middle man and you could change the loot table to be coin, and other stuff and precursers… Please anet, recognize the flaw in your game, and fix it. its ok to admit your mistakes. ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only 7.04 silver per 1000 luck, but that's 7.04 silver more than we have ever gotten from excess luck. 8x [Red Festival Lantern](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Red_Festival_Lantern), which vendor at 0.88 copper each.

Reanne.5462 Posted February 8, 2019 Author Share Posted February 8, 2019 Ok, so the consensus is continue to salvage my greens and blues? and save my luck all year, waiting for the new year event to start again? or is there a better use for greens blues? is that 7.04 silver more than I would get, selling the drops to merchant, saving the cost of salvage and time spent?

lokh.2695 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Well there are crazy persons like me out there, that keep salvaging and consuming. It doesn't raise your level above 300 but the number gets bigger. And maybe, just maybe one day, ANet will raise the cap and all the luck i consumed will count for something. Until then my reward is not having to delete or even worse, store it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you've misunderstood. You should salvage greens & blues regardless, because (a) it's usually more coin than selling on the TP and (b) even when it's not, it's much, much faster. Sell the mats when you storage is full, for whatever price you can get for them. The luck is not a factor in that decision. After, you end up with lots of essences of luck. Any character can become an artificer to combine the smaller luck into exotic. I recommend that. This year, Drooburt will take luck (5x exotic) for one reward and that is not only the best it is absolutely the only bulk luck sink that the game has offered. As to whether you should save luck after LNY ends: that's up to you. If you have the space, sure, no reason not to hoard it. If you lack space, then delete it. It's not that much gold.

Skotlex.7580 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I salvage green and blues for the materials, not the magic find. So yes, continue doing that, as it's much faster than any other alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until then my reward is not having to delete or even worse, store it. Yeah, I started doing that about 4 months ago because I was sure ANet would never offer any sort of luck sink. Oops, since I also consumed about half the exotic stacks I was tired of storing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muusic.2967 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Other than increasing greens, luck is a placebo for the luck you used to be able to put on your gear at launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's much, much better than that, because it was all-but-impossible to gain 300% MF even on a single character, without sacrificing everything else; now, it's trivial to have 200+% covering all your toons.

I recommend selling them at the TP for money. It's what I do (unless you are currently wealthy, then you can try your luck at the Mystic Forge). Charms and symbols are pretty cheap at the TP as well, so not worth salvaging for those, either. > @"Skotlex.7580" said: > I salvage green and blues for the materials, not the magic find. So yes, continue doing that, as it's much faster than any other alternative. There are more efficient ways to get materials these days, like Volatile Magic.

I can't imagine somebody would have the patience to list the ~200 fine/masterwork stuff I get after one hour in Istan. x_x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
