    this has been suggested so many times. there is 3 clicks before you scrap it.
    search for one of the multiple times this has been suggested and you will see the Devs stance on it

    lol read the forum rules. here I copied a bit for you

    SEARCH FIRST
    There is a good chance your question has been asked and your concern has been answered already. Before creating a new post, take a moment to search the forums for your topic. Opening multiple threads spreads relevant info all over the place, making it more difficult for future battlers to find it, and for current battlers to keep track of the conversation

    I'm not going to search for you. I'm sure you are capable of that

    i think i get where both sides of the argument is coming from. first, the ones who say that the system of scrapping is good as is. reason for this is there are already safeguards in place for scrapping items. it takes you three clicks before any item can be scrapped. first click brings you to the item info window. second click is the scrap button on the lower left corner. this brings you to the scrap window which has a red scrap button on the lower right. some may argue that those three clicks may be more than enough to safeguard accidental scrapping.

    on the other hand, others think that there should be more locks or safeguards than what we already have. i would assume that some people, when doing the same thing over and over again, would just click at the windows from muscle memory and would often not even read the warnings because scrapping is done so often that some of us just do it again and again that we get so used to clicking those buttons so clicking (or tapping) becomes just an automatic reflex.

    i have no idea what the best compromise would be but but as i asked the op before, at what point does the op suggest that the "lock" be placed? at the first click or at the second click(item menu window) or the third click ( scrap window with red scrap button on bottom right corner). how would this lock work? would this new lock affect scrapping useless items that need to be scrapped? or does this lock only affect his favorite items?

    Can you imagine scrapping a T4/T5 legendary by genuine accident.. that is 5 figures of pain and a law case waiting to happen... cant be difficult to implement
