    do you get a pattern?

    sorry no answer, but i would guess no, but i would expect to get a (eternal?) pattern from it.

    You don't get an eternal pattern for it currently. The item will explicitly state it, if it does have one.

    This has been an ongoing problem. I accidentally sold an external-pattern item to a NPC vendor. Frankly, I'm surprised this hasn't been fixed yet. It's been brought up in multiple telethons... but they don't seem to see it as urgent.

    We need this problem solved.. like.. now.

    a locking mechanism for items we want to exclude when transacting with vendors and crafting stations is something that has been asked for time and time again, the time I would save from not having to double check every sale would be awesome

    Salvaging and other need a second check but not a problem, these need to be able to be sold.

    the solution is one more check box for certain items, sure a lock would be nice but much harder.

    Just let us lock items from our inventory so they never appear in stations or transactions.

    Its quite concerning that we've gone this far into persistence and still dont have the "dont sell / dont salvage" option(s) to set for items. This is a *must have* feature. Its cognitively burdensome to have to be so careful with such rare or expensive things, given how incredibly easy it is to lose them.

    This is an assumption on my part: Go to a Town Crier and reset your quests. That might work but, you would then have to re-do all quests again. You would lose all of the virtue armor pieces and have to redo the quests to regain them.
    @Berek : am I correct?

    I don't think so. The virtue armor pieces aren't flagged as quest items.

    It looks like they just fixed that on r49 last week:


    Though a little too late for the OP.

    in that case, you should be able to get it back by emailing support. (it would be helpful to them to pin down the timestamp of the salvaging in your chatlogs)

    It would be a bit of overkill but can we still reset our quests or has that not made it into the game yet?

    it's in. look for a gear in the box with your char name on login. it's only for the main questlines, though.

    Doesn't that only reset the main quest line?

    Filters and able to lock things to prevent selling or salvaging is clearly needed.
    One flag i would like to see is 'new' items you obtained the last 24 hours, would likely help preventing selling the wrong items if you had toggled it so could only see the new items

    I rest my quests on Sunady 12\17\2017, it erased all the items from my Jounal and Current tasks.
    But no Quest Items.

    Dont delete stuff on accident or its perm gone, but most games have an extra step that ask are you sure you want to destroy or something along those lines, but SOTA is not about hand holding so there you have it.
