*THAT* is the part that doesn't work! It doesn't work in the dialog box or in the options menu. The options for 'Hide Useful Salvage Warning' and 'Hide High Consignment House Fee' (or whatever it's called) are *DEFECTIVE*. They don't work and they never did. They reset every time you zone. All the other similar options work just fine.

Yes, unless you have a reason to want it. I got it on ONE character in order to cover the two reasons I can think of:
1) You're a collector who wants everything.
2) You want to be able to craft IO's *CHEAP* (either to sell, or for friends or SG).
Some people get it on multiple toons. That's too much grinding for me.

the salvage slots are nice as well.
Sure, the extra salvage and recipe slots are great. I wasn't questioning why someone would do it; I was questioning why someone would put up with the aggravation of doing it on a level one toon (limited salvage capacity and limited consignment slots).

Does the Memorized tab open for all the enhancements under tht badge or for all Memorized IO? If it is one entire subtab then I am ok...but if it is going to open a memorized tab for each set on enhancements that pertain to one badge, then no.

As it stands, I am really OCD/Neatfreak and can't stand that I cant sort the salvage in my racks by name, quantity or whatever...yes I am a weirdo...

You have one Memorized tab that opens, and in that are the 26(?) categories of generic IO enhancements you can make. That's what auto-opens every time. Under each category is another row for each level you can make, but those are collapsed by default when you open up the window.

It's for all memorized IOs.

Well, I did it on my main SFer so I could make temp recipes on the fly.

I agree with Rangle

I've done this sooo many times since I own my own storage base with three workshops and 10 million in prestige

What we really need are sort features and recipie storage but that goes into the base-love graveyard forum...

Field Crafter is awesome, and the extra recipe and salvage slots are also awesome.

The least annoying way to do this IME is to start with a huge pile of AE tickets. Instead of making a zillion bids on salvage, roll your tickets into low level salvage. You'll have enough ingredients to craft dozens of recipes, so craft 'em up and sell the decent ones, delete the junk IOs.

I buy recipes from the crafting table for anything less then lvl 45, you might save a bit on the market but it's not worth the running around.

Since you're not bidding for salvage on the market, you should do this on the weekend. The crafted IOs will sell faster, and for better prices.

You can make a decent profit on your way to Field Crafter, and once you earn it (and get the lvl 50 recipes memorized) it's a steady revenue stream. After running an ITF or whatever I vendor generic IO recipes but the white salvage gets crafted into marketable lvl 50 recipes for a decent profit. When you think about the hundreds and hundreds of salvage you pick up on an active toon, you might as well make a little inf.

I like to unlock them on my lowbies because I sidekick with my friends and the extra loot slots are damn handy when those recipies vendor for 100k instead of 50 (no k is intentional). Plus, it gets you at least one extra market slot for the sales.

Thank you everyone at Paragon and on Virtue. When the lights go out in November, you'll find me on Razor Bunny.

I know you're not talking about me, but also "Guilty as Charged". In the couple
bases I have, all of my storage racks are organized that way, around the room.
Oh, and actually, you don't need an empty rack to organize it that way - just a L50
with 70 or so salvage slots. That will cover 2 racks worth of shuffling...

Of course, I'm also one of those who has his inspirations neatly stacked and
organized too... F1 is *always* Heal - on every toon I have.. Lucks are
in F2 early (or in F3 on toons that carry 2 columns of heal), and F5 is
either End/Cabs or Break Frees - again depending on toon).

You can say it - I can be distinctly OCD in some areas.

As for the OP's post, I'm more in the IronBlade camp. I have only two toons
with PortaCrafter (tm), one hero, and one villain (back before the market consolidation).

Even then, I can count on one hand the total times (cumulative) that they've
used it in the past year ... Mostly an unnecessary waste of time/effort unless
you want it for the badge, or you're the main supplier for an S/VG.
