Piles of {{name}} are practically ubiquitous throughout Qud. While of little monetary value on their own, they are extremely valuable in combination with the [[Scavenger]] and [[Trash Divining]] skills, which transform them into items and secrets, respectively. A single act of rifling through trash has the potential to yield both an item and a secret, if the rifler has the appropriate skills.{{Code Reference | class = Garbage | method = AttemptRifle | name = "attempt-rifle-method"}} | Piles of {{name}} are practically ubiquitous throughout Qud.

Whenever a creature rifles trash while having the Scavenger skill, there is a 25% chance they will find an item. Roughly 96% of the time this happens, this item will be scrap randomly generated from the table of the appropriate tier. The other roughly 4% of the time it will instead be one of an assortment of items, again rolled based on tier. (The chance of scrap is actually larger than 96%, because the same table that provides the non-scrap items also has a possibility of yielding scrap.<ref><code>EncounterTables.xml</code>; search for <code>.Junk Tables</code> to find the appropriate place in the file</ref>) | Whenever a creature rifles trash while having the Scavenger skill, there is a 25% chance they will find an item.
