Is it worth it to scrap legendary weapons in Fallout 76?

Yes, you should scrap unwanted legendary weapons in Fallout 76 for Legendary Script (to buy modules/items at the Purveyor) or to learn legendary mod plans, but NEVER scrap "god roll" weapons (perfect effects for your build) or unique items like "All Rise" unless you have duplicates or don't need them, as learning mods is a low chance, and rebuilding good gear is hard. Focus on getting rid of low-value legendaries for script/modules and keep the powerful ones, perhaps adding special characters to their names to avoid accidental scrapping.
