I'm actually down to my last 800 gold ball slavage so a full gold ball is pretty handy at the moment.

Down to 800?

That's 16 full pieces...

Wrong, you need 60 gold ball salvage - the ones you gain from the STR Challenge - to make a full piece. Currently I can produce 13.

Whereas I have 2000+ medpac and data pad salvage.

Unless you got different rewards, you're thinking of the wrong gold ball. I got a Mk 8 BioTech Implant, which requires 50 salvage and is not challenge gear.

You know, I think you thrive in throwing red herrings about.

1 Mk 8 Biotech Implant = 60 x Mk 8 Biotech salvage + 50 x Mk 8 Biotech components

I'm running short on the Biotech salvages which are in fact challenge gear.

Well how many Biotech prototypes do you have?
Having 800 salvage means nothing if you don't have the protest to go with them. 1 can't be used with out the other.
You get ~50 salvage a week from challenge alone.
You get prototypes if you are lucky and they drop in raid or show in guild shop or shard shop.

So unless a player is buying prototypes in shipments for crystals or have the greatest rng you will tend to have more salvage then you can use, which is why the players asked for it to be removed.

Yes, I buy Biotech component salvage through shipments and/or shard and guild shops when its required to level a character. Farming them via battles is inefficient. 25 component salvages for 375 crystals is an acceptable trade off when you're netting 800 crystals per day from fleet and arena.

To me 800 is a relative shortage when I have 2000+ medpac and data pad salvage. But we each see different colours looking through a prism it seems.
