The Witcher 3 junk

In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, junk items return. This time, however, some junk items can be dismantled into useful crafting components. As junk items have weight, it is better to either sell or dismantle them when available.

Note that certain quest items, once they are no longer needed, will be put in the junk tab and can then be dismantled or sold off like regular items.

Dismantling

The price of dismantling items is directly related to the price at which a merchant buys and sells items.

• Ones in Novigrad tend to offer better prices for your gear, but also charge more for dismantling items in comparison to those in Velen.
  • For instance a wooden ladle costs 1 to dismantle at the armorer in Crow's Perch, and 2 to dismantle in Novigrad, whilst both times yielding 1 timber.
  • Innkeepers will offer an extra +5-12% increase in profit if you sell junk items to them over other types of merchants.

The amount of crafting components received from an item depends on the skill level of the dismantler. This was tested with the amateur blacksmith in Blackbough and Yoana, the master armorer in Crow's Perch.

• For some items both yield the same amount of crafting components, while for other items the difference is rather large. For example a candelabrum yields 1 iron ingot regardless of which person is used, whereas an old goat hide yields 1 leather scraps from an amateur blacksmith, but 3 leather scraps at the master armorer. Since Yoana is the cheapest master level craftsman in the game, it is recommended for penny-pinching to do all your dismantling with her.
• The list below indicates the minimum of crafting components received as if dismantled at an amateur level craftsman.
