==User Interface/Mechanics==

Once the salvage chest is obtained from the Blacksmith, it shows in the lower right corner of the [[Inventory]] window. The chest appears closed, when not in use. Once clicked upon, it opens up and a 3x2 space box appears in the center of the screen. Items to be salvaged can be dragged (or control+clicked with one touch) into the chest.

Once activated, the salvage chest will instantly reduce all the items in it into raw materials, which stack up in the character's inventory.

It's not known if salvaged items can be recovered, in case of a misclick. Accidentally sold items can be bought back from from the Artisans, so it's possible there will be some recovery method for inadvertent salvaging as well. Probably not though, since that could be exploited in at least two ways:

# Since the materials returned are semi-random, players could repeatedly salvage the same item, trying for a better materials roll.

# Even if the materials were permanently set on that particular item, simply knowing what it was going to salvage for would let the player decide to salvage or try to trade it.
