Missing Components

Hi all,

I just reactivated my account, and I have a found a few things missing. I already defeated the ITF, LGTF, and the SM task forces before I stopped playing. After logging on for the first time last night, the components I received from beating them aren't in the salvage menu like they were before (e.g. I specifically remember having Hero 1's blood sample, but I can't find it anymore).

Did the "mission salvage" I received from beating those TFs move somewhere else, or is this a bug I should report to the Admins? Any help would be great. Thanks and Happy Holidays

Did you last play after I19 came out, unlocked the Alpha slot, and took those rewards instead of merits?
There's a Hero 1 Blood sample salvage as part of the Lost Curing wand mission chain as well, so perhaps you're just confused.

You don't get salvage from those TFs retroactively. Depending on when you ran them, you probably got a recipe or Merits as your reward instead. If you want the new salvage, you'll have to run them again.

Unless you purposely chose "Hero 1 DNA Sample" as your reward for LGTF or crafted it with Incarnate Shards, you shouldn't have one. As mentioned, there is a different piece of salvage called "Vial of Hero 1's Blood", which you probably already used to create The Lost Cure.

Yup, just like i have alts that had run every single TF before merits were added to the game and i didn't retroactively receive merits for every TF i'd ever run when the merits went live.

Thanks for the help/replies everyone. That clears up a lot. Looks like I have a lot more "work" to do than I originally thought =)

Eh, it's really not that much work. You can make any component you need from shards anyway. Almost any of the late game TFs that gives a component will give you more shards than you need to craft the rest of the boost while running it. Just decide what boost you want to start with, pick a TF that rewards you with one of its components, and find a team to do that TF. Just running content with 50+ enemies will eventually give you all the shards you need, but it's much faster to join teams or run a TF.

Hami raids are also a good source of shards. i unlocked an alt's Incarnate slot just before a Hami raid and by the time i was done raiding i crafted my basic boost.

Rikti zone events i've found to be pretty good as well, usually 3 - 6 shards every event. Combine that with get mentoring badge time and the usual salvage/recipes and i'm surprised that there aren't even more 50's doing them than there actually are.
