OP you have legitimate complaints, the golden salvages shouldn't have been removed from raid rewards.

Most of the forum will just blame you for gearing your toons and say stuff like don't buy them from shipments. Just ignore them. You'll run out of gold balls even if you only focus the absolute necessary toons.

I haven't bought them from shipments in half a year or more and I'm starting to run out of them. Especially since raid rewards give you the salvages which are readily available in shipments for 375

They'll change their tune in a few months once they run into the same issue

You may run out... I don't. As I gear only the necessary ones and don't buy the others for crystals, because Darth revan.

Like I said in the post you quoted,

You will run out even if you don't buy from shipments and gear only the most important toons but I've seen everyone just refuse to listen until they face the same issue so I'm not even going to try convincing you

I don't buy gold balls and I'm not gearing every toon I can. Only gearing the absolute necessary toons. I haven't farmed gear in shipments or nodes in months and I'm only getting them via raid, and shard shop.
