I do not like the new salvage mode. I salvaged 3 forcefields (no deconstructor yet) and got the equivalent of 8 E&Z instead of the previous 15 E&Z so I gave up and brought in a deconstructor with the factory.
I have never liked it since they decided to punish you with reduced resources over retrieve block. It didn't used to be like this and I don't know why they decided to change it other than "because we can". Judging from the response I got, don't expect it to change. Just work around it.
Averaging the same statistically is fine but you do not find 100 to 1000 of a high-end item to end up with that "average" I needed 20 more E&Z under the old system I would have gotten 15 from the 3 forcefields I got 8. Just not cool.
agree with gromit......we used to have a reason to reduce the mine or other poi's, now it is just maybe loot some electronics and move on.
Additional thought while driving. The repair bay requires ingots, at least I think so, so now you get no ingots when using salvage mode. This makes the repair bay a little harder to use because the repair bay does not have enough glitches and difficulties as it is.
It does take ingots only, you're right, I was actually quite surprised that it didn't use a container and components instead.
