Running out of Salvage?
Anybody coming close to running out of salvage for the Carbonite Circuit Board? The bottom item for Relic toons. Anybody hear of any plans CG has to address this issue?

The math here is pretty simple.
Since relics were introduced, I’ve done nothing differently in regards to my acquiring of low level gear - I still farm the same ways I did before, I still buy those 4x credit items from the shops, I still complete low level events as always.
However, since I started relicing, by hoard of low level gears has gone down. That means that they are being used faster than they are acquired.
The obvious conclusion is that at some point, they will run out unless my spending of them decreases or my income of them increases.
If you are in the same boat, then the crunch is definitely coming for you too.
If you are applying relics at a slow enough rate that your hoard remains steady, you might not ever feel the crunch.
For me personally, I can see it imminently. I should be able to complete JML and his requirements (my third GL toon) but after that I’ll pretty much be out.
Not really. They recently added the challenge tier 3 to all the assualt battles which gives you relic materials. So unless you are beating all of those every time, you haven't maximized your relic income.
So there may be room to grow that income for some to prevent a shortage before they run out. Even if they are currently burning through a stash.
Do you really believe that the extra relic materials from t3 challenges will alleviate this crunch?
It’s a budget question of income vs. expenses. I guess if the few extra materials from those challenges are enough that your hoard stops depleting, then that has solved it for you.
For myself (and I think most people commenting here), my gearing is happening at a Much faster rate than the acquisition of this low level gear supports. And I don’t feel that my gearing rate is excessive given that I’m not spending money to supplement it. Even spending 500-600 crystals a day on energy refreshes is enough to far exceed the rate that those low level gears come in.
Relicing already provides enough additional gates as it is, in my opinion the lowest levels of relic materials should not be yet another gate.
