What Can Be Scraped in WoW?

In World of Warcraft (WoW), scrapping is a feature that allows players to break down and recycle unwanted gear, extracting valuable resources and materials from them. This feature can be especially useful for gearing up new characters, adjusting to changes in the current meta, or simply maximizing your resources. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at what can be scrapped in WoW and how to make the most of this feature.

Battle for Azeroth Gear

Important: The Scrapper system is only available for Battle for Azeroth (BfA) gear, which means that all items from prior expansions, including Legion, Warlords, and Mists of Pandaria, Cataclysm and Wrath, cannot be scrapped.

Among the BfA gears, the following items are eligible for scrapping:
• Crafted gears: Items created by yourself or acquired through the Battle for Azeroth Blacksmithing or Jewelcrafting professions.
• Dungeon and raid rewards: Gears obtained by completing dungeon and raid tiers in the Battle for Azeroth expansion.
• Quest rewards: Some quest rewards from the expansion.
• World drop items: Randomly looted items from the overworld, including the Darkmoon Faire and fishing.

Scrap Rates and Rewards

When using the Scrapper, Expulsom can be obtained, which can be used to craft PvP gear, enchants, and other items. You can earn Expulsom by scrapping various Battle for Azeroth gears. The probability of earning Expulsom is not affected by the quality of the item or the profession used to obtain it.

Scrapping vs Deconstruction

Deconstruction was a feature introduced in an earlier patch, allowing the disassembly of certain crafting materials into more basic parts. However, deconstruction is not the same as scrapping. Scrapping breaks down gear into its constituents, whereas destruction breaks down items into more basic pieces.

Where to Use the Scrapper

• Scrap-o-Matic 1000: Located in the Val’sharah hub, accessible from the Alliance-controlled Stromgarde village.
• Shred-Master Mk1: Located in Drustvar, accessed from the Horde-controlled Deadmines.

By understanding what can be scrapped in WoW, you’ll be better equipped to recycle your unwanted gear, improve your crafting, and reap the rewards of the scrapper system. Remember that only Battle for Azeroth gears can be scrapped, and focus on breaking down those valuable items to extract Expulsom and advance your in-game progress!

Additional Tips

When scrapping, prioritize low-level items, as you’ll receive more Expulsom for scrapping epics than rares.

Keep in mind that when scrapping, you have a 100% guaranteed drop rate for deconstruction materials (e.g., Blacksmithing tokens, Enchanting items).

Remember to always weigh the costs and benefits when deciding what to scrap: the amount of Expulsom earned against the actual value of the item’s components.

Happy scrapping, and may your Warcraft journey be filled with exciting discoveries and thrilling adventures!
