Source and Cost

You may learn one degree of Salvage Techniques at levels 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35.

You may only learn from each school once.

Use

Allows you to recover part of the materials of a building when you tear it down. In previous Tellings, it followed a 'diminishing returns' pattern, with some variance for each material.

  • Level 1 - 40%
  • Level 2 - 60%
  • Level 3 - 75%
  • Level 4 - 80%
  • Level 5 - 85%
  • Level 6 - 90%
  • Level 7 - 95%

Fractional values will be rounded up that percentage of the time. For instance, if you are at level 3 and you salvage a building with just one of a particular resource, you will get that one resource back 75% of the time.

Buildings that are upgraded (such as the Reactory, Thistle Garden, Kitchen, etc.) will ONLY return the original build cost. You will NOT salvage the materials used in any upgrades.

Salvage Techniques will NOT recover materials from compounds, nor from buildings which are too far degraded to use.

Glass Recycling Salvage Level 3

At Salvage Level 3 glass recycling becomes available at a Chemistry Laboratory sub menu Recycling....

Glass recycling menu.png

Glass recycling converts blown glass items into glass dust. The minimum level to recycle glass is Salvage Level 3 but with higher levels more glass dust is produced.

You choose one item to break, you can also break all of one category, or all of the glass you carry. There are yes/no blocks on categories, and a question to answer if you want to break all the glass you carry.

It takes 8 of the same type of glass dust in a bench at the required temperature for melting glass to increase the glass count by one.

Anything that is blown glassware, regardless of sourcing can be recycled.

  • At 4 salvage I seem to get three dust recycling a beaker. Only did a couple, unsure how much better higher levels are. -Matk
  • one of each glass item was recycled with the following glass dust types being given:
    • Soda Glass Dust: from Beaker, Distillation Coil, Florence Flask, and Thistle Tube
    • Normal Glass Dust: from Barometric Sphere, Test Tube
    • Jewel Glass Dust: from Hookah Bowl, Wine Glass

Metal Recycling Salvage Level 4

At Salvage Level 4 a Recycling Smeltery can be built. A Recycling Smeltery melts down metal products from Fly Fishing and Blacksmithing into Iron.
