Best items to salvage for each resource
Crafting and reforging resources come mainly from salvaging bought gear at the Horse Seller. This table shows the best items to buy and salvage for each resource. The Bronze per 1 columns show cost efficiency, so the lower the number, the better the value for that resource.
| Item | Bronze / item | Amount salvaged | Powder Silver | Bronze / silver | Rivets | Bronze / rivet | Steel Ingot | Roll of leather |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shielded Chanfron | 600 | 1000 | 235 | 2553 | 571 | 1051 | 1000 | 976 |
| Ironcap Chanfron | 600 | 1000 | 248 | 2419 | 522 | 1149 | 1000 | 953 |
| Iron-Edged Saddle | 700 | 500 | 130 | 2692 | 316 | 1108 | 714 | 690 |
| Riveted Saddle | 700 | 1000 | 233 | 3004 | 670 | 1045 | 1428 | 1347 |
| Split Leg Guards | 800 | 500 | 125 | 3200 | 316 | 1266 | 736 | 608 |
| Riveted Leg Guards | 800 | 500 | 128 | 3125 | 299 | 1338 | 750 | 635 |
| Ordinary Tack | 1200 | 500 | 182 | 3297 | 486 | 1235 | 1056 | 961 |
| Riveted Tack | 1200 | 500 | 180 | 3333 | 401 | 1496 | 1026 | 986 |
One catch: Steel Ingots and Rolls of Leather are cheaper bought straight from the Apothecary (100 bronze each) than salvaged for, so salvage mainly for Powder Silver and Rivets.
