Open Chest Screen - "Salvage All" button

Currently, 90% of the time, I’ll want to salvage 100% of drops I get in a chest. Selecting each one, scrolling to it, pressing a button, confirming, watching the animation, and repeating 4x times is rather time consuming and very poor user experience overall.

Suggestion: Add a “Salvage All” button, in addition to the existing options. Same confirmation window as single salvage. Should be easy to implement and would greatly streamline player experience :slight_smile:

I think there should be a “salvage this rarity and below” option you can set (and change)

Also, you should be able to click on items to see what they do directly from the chest

Good idea.
I have often needed to check “Do I have this spell in this level/rarity?” before.
If not the full check, at least a “NEW” banner on the item or spell would be nice. The item is “new” for me if I don’t have that item in that color.

I support all post before mine. Sometimes it reall is a “pita” having to do this procedure over and over again.

Therefore any kind of “mass-salvage-function” is very welcome because the chance of finding really new items (mostly only through seasons) and/or high rarity ones is really low.

I wrote about this same thing somewhere sometime, I guess in another thread without such a clear title. I’m still hoping this will be introduced at some point as for example opening a diamond chest with 6 things to salvage takes ages. Well 3 things to salvage takes way too long too.

I am more than happy to pass this onto the team, but I am concerned about the increased chance for people to accidentally salvage a whole chest of items :smiling_face_with_tear:

The option to be able to set some parameters would be key
e.g. Items of a specific rarity or less

If I have to salvage, say, three or four gear items, I’m clicking the salvage buttons in the process six or eight times. Thus, a “Salvage All” click followed by a “You sure about that, Chief?” click works well for me. Two clicks and I’m done with the contents.

Accidentally salvaging something is always a possible problem, but it’s a risk I’m personally happy with in having a salvage all button. It could always be put top left or something to keep it out of the way.

When it comes down to it this suggestion is based around the problem that it takes way too long to salvage unwanted items in crates. I’m fine with ANYTHING that makes it faster. If you open all your chest slots at once and they are all ruby/diamond it takes way too long by the time you salvage everything.

There have been other suggestions around this topic too.

Gonna bump this to ask if this is being looked into. I really, REALLY want this to be a thing, and of course, give it the ol’ “Are you sure about that?” prompt before you execute.

A safer alternative would be to let players mark one or more items for salvage, and then salvage the marked items as a group.

This is probably way too much work to implement but if when pressing salvage all the game could check in the background that for rare, epic and legendary gear, spells, minions you already have the same item, in the same colour, in the same or greater tier. If you don’t then warn of that fact. Common and uncommon would not be subject to this check.

The checkbox idea above is good as you still need to manually select the items to salvage, although this would require everything to be displayed on the screen at once. Having to scroll and check boxes would be annoying.

I passed on about 3-4 Salavage-specific QOLs to the team over the past few weeks!
Salvaging all or selecting multiple is a part of that feedback.

Also, some more detailed confirmations on mass salvage (to help ease some of the ‘missing item’ tickets) and feedback about 1 stock season items when they are salvaged for them to be available again.

So keep your eyes out on future patch notes for if any of those are implemented!

This is encouraging news. I hope my thread was included in the feedback

While I already wrote a suggestion in @melonfresh’s topic, here is another idea to support mass-salvage without unwanted removals. This would also be massively helpful when opening chests in the Open Chest Screen… It would be a “wish list” for any item/spell/minion:

  • add any item from the whole game to the wishlist
  • optional, select the minimum rarity
  • optional, select one or more specific colors by checkboxes (unless it is a minion / spell)
  • optional, select … whatever will be meaningful in the future
  • optional, check a “keep on wishlist” box

All items on the wishlist should be excluded from mass salvage by default (but you can force to salvage them anyway). Items on the wishlist create a visual effect upon opening a chest / collecting items from followers. If you selected “keep on wishlist”, the item remains on the wishlist (helpful if you are looking for specific minions). If you did not select “keep on wishlist”, remove the specific item from the wishlist.

Please note: this means for example that if you are looking for a legendary guard broadsword in red and blue and the blue one was crafted, only the color “blue” is removed from the item’s wishlist entry and the “red” colored item remains on the wishlist. This would be a predictable QoL improvement :slight_smile:

It would also be nice if there was an option to “Open All Chests”. One of the most annoying things about this game is when i have 8 unlocked chests and i have to waste time opening them one by one

I don’t think that’s something easily done, along with the suggestion for a wish list (more so doable I think), or the double checking you already have the item (maybe more doable because you can add a comparison at the time of acquirement).

I think an instant skip when you press skip would be best, and then followed by a salvage all prompt once you review all of the items.
