    Did Salvage Just Get Capped at 172k?

    So last night I completed a coop map and like every night I started breaking down every item I picked up that I wasn't going to use into resources. Unfortunately, after some time I noticed that I kept getting popups for +500, +750 +250, etc but that the number for my salvage wasn't going up. I forget the exact number but it is something like 172,995.

    I thought maybe it was a display bug so I ran another coop map, got out, checked my salvage number, broke down four weapons, checked salvage number again and no change - same number.

    I had thought that salvage wasn't capped, especially since you need about 20k to add a single mod slot to a purple...

    I hope that is just a bug because that's a pretty low number to have for a cap.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?

    Spend some, then earn some again. See if it just temporarily bugged. That IS a lot of salvage though - I can't imagine what you're worried you need to hold onto that much for.

    As I understand it, the higher your EGO level (and the higher the required EGO of a weapon) the higher the cost to perform salvage matrix actions (add mod slots, remove mods, etc.)

    For me (at just under 1k EGO) it's about 30k a pop to add slots.

    I don't think they are just holding onto the resources, I'm the same way if I don't have a use for it I break it down and I just have a bunch of resources sitting around for when I am ready to mod out some stuff or buy keycodes

    With this new patch, I've noticed that after salvaging say 10 items all in a row, once you leave the inventory screen and go back to game, you don't get a single lump sum notification float on screen. It will do each notification individually in order. So sometimes after a mass salvage, the notifications will continue popping up in order for 30+ seconds after I've finished salvaging.

    So what i think is this: You receive the salvage instantly, just each notification takes 5(ish) seconds each and the game queues and plays them all in order.
