+Salvaging is free, though items can be sold to NPCs instead of salvaged, and level 70 items fetch a good price in Reaper of Souls. Rares generally go for 4-6k, but crafting requires so many Veiled Crystals that most players wind up salvaging almost all of their rare items, even if they could use the gold for the sales.

 ==Materials==
-There are nine [[material]]s in total. Each difficulty level has its own {{magic|magic}} material and its own {{rare|rare}} material. Inferno alone has a {{legendary|legendary}} material. An item always yields materials of the difficulty level its item level corresponds to: item levels 1&ndash;30 are Normal, 31&ndash;50 are Nightmare, 51&ndash;59 are Hell, and 60&ndash;63 are Inferno.
+In D3 there are 4 different salvaged materials, plus one yellow material that can only be found from [[Elite]] drops. All salvaged materials can also be found dropped from monsters, chests, goblins, and often [[Horadric Cache]]s. Orange material can only be dropped by Rift Guardians.
-Materials cannot be converted or upgraded.

-'''Salvaging''' is a mechanic that allows players to break down weapons and armor into the raw [[materials]] that are required to create new items via the [[Blacksmith]]'s [[crafting]] recipes. All magical, rare, set, and legendary items can be salvaged, but not white items or low quality items.  There are different types of materials for each of the four difficulty levels -- for instance, items must be found on Inferno to salvage them into the Inferno quality materials.

Every item is associated with one of the four difficulty levels, based on its item level, and yields materials based on that and its rarity.
-Salvaging was initially possible in the field with the [[Nephalem Cube]], but during the beta test the system was changed so that salvaging could only be accomplished through an interface accessed via the [[Blacksmith]], in town.

+Players can salvage multiple items in rapid succession by clicking quickly, and this system is identical to the item sale mechanism in the game.
+Salvaged items cannot be recovered; unlike the [[buyback]] option for sold items, once an item is salvaged, it is gone forever. The tooltip warning to the right is from the Nephalem Cube, but it's identical in function and severity when the Blacksmith is doing the salvaging.
 If a [[socket]]ed item with a [[gem]] is salvaged, the gem will be returned to the inventory once the item is destroyed. This is often much cheaper than unsocketing a gem from an item, and the player also gets a small material return for crafting.
