Hi,

I am currently raising tailoring and sub crafts primarily to salvage items. My question is, if I get to level 1000 crafting for tailoring and all subcrafts ( wood/metal/cloth etc.. ) will I get the max return from salvaging items or do I need to go 1100 tailoring for the higher subcrafts to ensure max return?

Thanks

Actually I thought 1000 in skill is enough for all salvage stuff (at least valid for lb staffs), but no, its seems I do not get full materials from some DF salvage, although they only give asterite/diamond.

I heard, in order to get back all material, your skill has to be high enough in order to be able to craft such an item.

As a tailor its easy to skill from 1000 - 1100 - just make friend with an armor crafter and sell the linings he needs for chainmail/plate.

What is it people usually salvage from diamond seals merchants, getting tailoring from 1000 to 1100 will only raise my subcraft cloth and leather to 1100, not metal or wood. I thought most people salvage the slash weapons from df merchants for most profit so the benefit of raising subcrafts with tailoring from 1 to 1.1k is useless?

1001+ skill & in all subskills is enough.

you can simply check yourself: no variance at salavage output for same items = 100% returm. if you skill is <1000 and you salvage araknit / arcanium metal, you have differences in output, from 3-9 for same things as example.

thanks, I guess my last question.. what is most profitable gear from DF merchants, from each sets (emerald, saph, and diamond) gear to salvage? I'm assuming weapons or plate?

hope this heps. values may not fit 100% toi uthagrd, but give hint.
