Living in Sansha space, I get a lot of armor plates dropped from salvage. Um... They don't build anything. They're a worthless drop, no blueprint requires them - they are not a material component for any item in the game, and they cannot be reprocessed.
But, they're taking away salvage item percentages from useful items like the nanite fluid and current pumps.
Can we either remove them from game, or replace them in the salvage equations with more useful components?

This is a big pain in my side as well. I think I'm upwards of 1000 of these worthless items sitting in a hanger.

Humm, sorry but ... no
I think, it's a Dev mistake.
Logicaly, armor plate needs to be a salvage componant for Anti (EM, Explosive, Kinectic and Thermic) Pump Rig, replacing the contaminated nanite compound.

I have seen this question raised many times, and no one has been able to point to a specific BP that uses these things. And still no dev response...
Has anyone bothered to look after the Jan 30 patch to see if they can be used by some kind of BP now?

Rised this question on 3 december ... checked after 30 ian as well .. nothing changed .. by the name and faction the should be used for armor rigs, on the other hand considering all the faction relation to modules is strange that cap rigs don't require Amarr/Sansha rig parts.

Silly devsies. Just keep stacking up them armor plates, they'll find a use for them eventually. Altho I'd love the option of adding extra armor plates to my hurricane... that wouldnt be too bad.  This is probably just a "minor" glitch :)

Scrap metal can be reprocessed with the right skills.. so Armor Plates < Metal Scraps.

Checked them all, item by item, blueprint by blueprint, item ID by item ID using grismar's showinfo from the latest export.
AT THE MOMENT, no T1 rig available now uses armor plates, no T2 rig inventable uses intact armor plates.

Lies, lies, outright lies ! 
As they say, "proof or sthu" 
Item ID please (for the BP)

Even if they are in T2 rig bpo's, the drop rate is so high this trash is more akin to a T1 drop then a T2.
Fix this please.

I must also agree that according to the datafiles they are not used for anything. If there have been added in, Can we please please get updated datafiles?

Bump.
Anyone know what these are used for? There are buy orders for them, so I assume they make something.

I have yet to find a use for them.
I checked roughly 30 BPCs up on auction for T2 rigs, none of them use it either.

I was guessing you meant CCP Hammer? I checked all his posts I could find since September and no luck there.
Am I looking in the wrong place? Is Hammerhead someone else?

It is mentioned by another Dev that CCP Hammer had them listed as component for at least 1 type of rig... He hasn't written it himself.

You can build a very strong tinfoil hat using armorplates.

this is a bug, they are not a part of any rig manufacture requirement, I will work through some solutions with Hammerhead as soon as we can which might include converting them to more useful components which is a nice fix for now.

Some things you can do which might be a bit easier than converting them.
1. Place NPC buy orders for them at a reasonable price
2. Place NPC item exchange contracts for them with various amounts of salvage as the exchange.[possibly even small amounts of tech 2 salvage]
Number 1 is an isk sink, which is bad, but number 2 will have a more evened effect on economy as there will be no sudden influx of a singular good but a more steady influx of whatever the market needs.
Solution 1 and Solution 2 both do not require any changing of the loot tables either, so long as the NPC buy orders stay updated and the NPC contracts refresh.

As they are fairly common salvage, they could potentially be used as another component in T1 rigs, but this complicates things and inflates rig prices a bit.
Converting them into another existing item would just make that item crash, and removing them all together is right out.
There are some, mostly armor rigs, whose descriptions lend themselves well to a solution involving their use, but they are very prevalent and should be used fairly extensively (in my opinion) or their value won't climb from where they are now.
Though I'm sure there was an initial intention for them, as they were added, seeded, and created..... so I guess I'll just wait and see.
