Summary

Items can be disassembled by right-clicking on the item and selecting the little screw icon (Break down), yielding normal or rare varieties of the item types listed below. The item is lost in this process. Lower level items will only yield a single palladium, basic items (non-enchanted) yield normal pieces, whereas enchanted items (enchanted, rare, legendary) yield both normal and rare varieties.

The resulting pieces can then be used to upgrade other items in the Nano Forge or from the crafter in order to create new items from scratch. Another use is for the uncommon Blueprints found throughout London, right clicking on them will bring up a similar display to that of the crafter, where materials can be used to create a specific item, depending on the blueprint.
