orujd Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I tried googling, but I was either entering wrong terms in it or there really is no answer. I wonder what are the materials obtained by RE-ing items and if that is defined somewhere? For example, is it possible to get VMC by RE a 240 rating item? Thank you in advance!

There is a LOT of RND from RE. The only thing that is 100% (if done from 100 or less) is getting an augment component from bonded attachments, etc. After that is RND of the mats used to create the item. I did RE a few low grades purple and never got the purple mat back, actually is rare to even get a blue mat back. So RE a 240 is not something i would do unless is really (REALLY REALLY) garbage (you can actually get nothing back). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighInquisitor Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I've been REing all 230 mods I've received from GC and I once got a grade 10 purple slicing mat out of one. So it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psandak Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 There is no documentation for this because as another already said there is a lot of RNG involved. However in my experience when REing crafted items that DO NOT require exotic materials, I typically get roughly 33% of the gathering skill materials back but the exact numbers vary. i.e. REing "components" that require 2/2/2, if I RE 50 of them which means I used 100 of each material type to craft them, I will get on average 33/33/33 back. Again that is AN AVERAGE so the exact numbers vary wildly. And then there is a small chance of getting a blue mission skill material back (IF it was part of the original recipe), and then there is a minuscule chance of getting a purple mission skill material back (again IF it was part of the original recipe).

SteveTheCynic Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 There is no documentation for this because as another already said there is a lot of RNG involved. So what? There's lots of RNG involved in a bunch of things in GW1 and GW2, and a dedicated core of players who document what they found, how many of it they found, where, and when, on the official Wikis. So I think you're saying that we don't have (and have never had in all the years this game has been up) a similar dedicated core of players, which is our loss, I'd say.
