Coming back to my wreckball and salvaging it takes me roughly 5 minutes and used to gain me like 15 mil worth of salvage on the good missions. That is much better isk/hour than any straight mission, so not doing it even without an alt is very very silly.
It takes longer than you think. I used to make wreck balls until I actually timed it and then gave salvaging-as-you-go a shot.
Limit yourself to salvaging BS and the occasional BC wreck, and you come out with 80% of the salvage/loot value without spending more than 30 seconds longer on a mission than it takes to kill the last rat. If you're only salvaging those wrecks in your Hurricane anyway, that's even more reason to ditch it and just fit a tractor and salvagers on your ship.
I used to defend wreck-balling fairly vigorously. It only took me giving another method a shot and looking at the clock for me to never go back. I hope you at least simply try it.
Well I don't really run missions anymore, but I might try it if I ever do it again, maybe with a T2 salvager... Especially in light of the drop in salvage value it is porbably more prudent to just salvage what you can get on the go and leve the rest to rot. No problem with missions in the nextdoor system either, where the wreckball-collecting took significantly longer. And if you are reading this, you have arrived at the signature without noticing...

Originally by: Leandro Salazar Actually what you should do in a Paladin is fitting three tractors, grab all wrecks in reach into one nice ball while you kill, and then come back in a cane with 7 salvagers (and one tractor to hunt down the possible stray BS wreck). And seeing how I switched from Nightmare to Paladin, I can tell you that this yielded quite a bit better isk/hour than just ganking slightly faster in a Nightmare and then hunting the wrecks down in a 4/4 salvage cane. Even though salvage prices are down significantly from when I last ran L4s, I suspect this still holds true, if not by a large margin.
How do you find the extra time needed to target and pull the cans in? Cause that would be a tipping point for me.
There is, of course, one thing that is missing, and I apologise for not bringing it up. Nightmare:

Any good nightmare fit for running sansha anomalies? Some frigs/cruisers tracking disrupt, which makes me think if range should be used since its pretty annoying
