I'm training up an alt to salvage behind my mission runner. However, while my mission runner can run the following setup as cap stable, I can't figure out what skills I'm missing to make the alt cap stable in the exact same ship.
[Noctis, Salvager]
Overdrive Injector System II Nanofiber Internal Structure II Expanded Cargohold II
Gistum C-Type 10MN MicroWarpdrive Cap Recharger II
Small Tractor Beam I Small Tractor Beam I Small Tractor Beam I Small Tractor Beam I Salvager I Salvager I Salvager I Salvager I
Medium Salvage Tackle I Medium Salvage Tackle I Medium Salvage Tackle I
Obviously I trained up the following: Energy Management V Energy Systems Operation V High Speed Maneuvering IV
All of these are now at the same level as my missioner but yet it is still NOT considered cap stable per EveFit for my alt while it claims it IS stable for my main character. Currently, EveFit says my main is stable at 40% and my alt runs out after 14mins. Obviously not a big deal as I doubt I'll ever even take 14 minutes to salvage but it has me confused and I don't like being confused.
So what skill(s) am I missing to make it stable? |

Can't be the case as my main doesn't currently have any implants at this time other than the usual 5 for attributes. |

ORE Industrial Skill Bonus: 5% bonus to Tractor Beam and Salvager cycle time and 60% bonus to Tractor Beam range and velocity per level.
Perhaps your alt has higher ORE Industrial Skill? |

Nope. Ore Industrial is at IV for both characters.
(now y'all seein why I'm so perplexed by this. ) |

EFT? Have you updated the character profile on your MAIN?
Also, per the earlier post: Faster cycle times could actually hurt cap usage. That is something I hadn't realised before. |

Accidentally bought the Corelum C-Type instead of the Gistum? |

Yep. Both are updated.
And yes, you are correct about those cycle times. However, given both main and alt are at Ore Industrial IV, it's not an issue I'm concerning myself with now. More of just trying to figure out what skill I'm missing that is causing the difference in cap usage. I have another character (pure PVP char) who runs it stable at 46% (versus the 40% for my industrialist main) and doesn't even have ore industrial trained at all. So obviously there is some major skill being overlooked that affects this setup.

haha, no. Definitely is the Gistum. With the Corelum, even my main doesn't run the setup as cap stable. |

For what it is worth, I have both a MWD and AB fit, and it is cap stable with either because one doesn't run tractors or salvagers 100% of the time. Salvage-alt also has a salvaging implant.

i should have asked this initially so here it is:
why the hell you need a MWD on a noctis? let alone a cap stable one??? 80+km tractors are MORE than plenty and if you need to move to a accel gate, you dont need to be stable. |

Oh and those 100+km rooms that my boss wants me to salvage sometimes. |

Just playing around with EFT
Gistum A-Type 10MN MicroWarpdrive ~ Instead of C-Type would make you cap stable 38%
A slot 1 Mindflood Booster may also make your setup cap stable with your skills.
Hard to tell what else it could be without seeing both characters skillsheets. |

This is cap stable at 44% with the MWD running: * Energy Systems Operation 4 * Energy Management 4 * High Speed Maneuvering 4
I've never needed to turn-off the MWD, but if you find your cap is getting low, then turn it off while salvaging. You don't need it running all the time.

First an apology as I admit I made a mistake in a previous comment and appears to have answered the question. I had thought I'd trained my missioner to 4 for the Ore Industrial skill but I was wrong. I only have it at 2 and didn't actually look at it when I said it was. Changing it to 4 in EveFit made it unstable. When you made this comment, I realized my idiocy as my missioner can only reach out to 43km.

While an A-Type would certainly be nice, I can't justify paying the significant difference between the A-Type and a C-Type.

Medium Salvage Tackle I Medium Salvage Tackle I Medium Salvage Tackle I Given my error, not sure how you got that to be cap stable. A T2 MWD kills the cap on all chars rather quick when run. Stable with the AB yes, but not the MWD. Either way, I would prefer the use of my setup vs that as I've never seen the need for more than one expanded cargohold. I've yet to come across a mission that drops enough loot and salvage to bother. (or I'm just that unlucky) I prefer the Overdrive and Nano for the extra speed and maneuverability for getting in range of wrecks that can sometimes be spread out over 100km and the move from warp-in to some gates. It also helps in the event you need to gtfo if perhaps an ill-timed spawn pops up, which I've had happen a few times on me. (Thinking of the mission Dread Pirate Scarlet) |

I suspect that it has to do with EFT calculating as if modules consume cap continuously rather than in batches.
If you make an EFT fit of a ship with 400 total capacitor and add XL shield booster (consumes 400 cap) EFT will say that it caps out after about 5 seconds, whereas in eve such a ship would cap out instantly when the booster is activated
or
EFT says that an ibis being neuted by a single heavy neutralizer II would have a 8 second cap stability, despite the ibis having only 156 total capacitor while the heavy neut drains 600 cap every cycle. |

A ship isn't capped out untill it can't run is mods, so eft is correct.
