It's a gold eyeball salvage thread
The idea that a salvage piece that people once had thousands of has become such a big gear crunch for so many players is ridiculous. Has CG ever answered a question about them specifically in any Q&A...

Agree - this is ridiculous to have to farm two pieces of gear for a gear piece of the level it is. Stun guns are bad enough.
The community is to blame for asking CG to remove it from raid rewards, but still - CG, PLEASE address this.
While I wouldn't object to these being added back in to raid rewards, having them strip all the different salvage types is far superior than when raid rewards included all the crap I have 5000+ of. That gold eyeball salvage took a hit in the process of improving raid rewards overall is a price I am willing to pay.
And while I don't have the 2k+ I had a year or more ago, I'll say the same thing I said back then. The salvage isn't the bottleneck. You get a number of these every week from challenges. The real bottleneck is the prototype you need to farm to match them up with. By the time you can farm 50 prototypes you've probably gotten the 60 salvage from the challenges anyway. (If your spending crystals to get prototypes enmass, then yes you will need to farm/spend crystals to get enough salvage too - but that is true for a number of high level gear pieces).
hey did not improve the tank rewards. If you think they have, you haven't actually been doing the raid. I finish top three every raid and 90% of the gear is garbage. They removed some trash, and also removed the eyeballs we need a ton of. And the net result was a big negative, because most of the time we just get different trash than the trash they removed.
Also, the sheer number of gold eyeballs that are needed for good toons makes the prototype vs challenge argument irrelevant.
is there any data for those claims?
