Salvaging items¶

Anyone can dismantle equipment at the station that crafts or repairs it: Alt + right-click the item, or use the Salvage tab. It returns 20% of the recipe materials, upgrades included, and the item is consumed. Each lost unit can come back with a profession's chance: Smith for metal, Tanner for leather and hide, Builder for wood, Runecarver for magic materials.
