The main reason why the feature to give you a junk item for dismantling low-level gear is there is to allow players to easily clear their inventory and not have to sell each piece of equipment by themselves.

With dismantling, you can, with just a few clicks, instantly clear your inventory of gear that you don’t need and then easily sell its powder and pieces for Silver.

You do also get a bit more Silver from gear by first dismantling it and then selling its powder and pieces rather than selling the equipment directly. The difference isn’t big, however.

Some higher level and rarity gear that you will start obtaining after reaching level 50 will break into materials that you need for crafting and upgrading upon being dismantled.


That’s what to do with Broken Equipment Powder and Useful Equipment Pieces in Lost Ark!
