Good morning Peoples,
I'm new to eve, and have not done much beyond a few level 2 missions yet.
I've been reading some, and it looks like Exploration is what I would find the most enjoyable so I've been bending my skill training towards that.
I'm probably going to have many questions as I go forward, but for now I'm curious about the salvager.
It seems every fit has a salvager, and I've come across talk about needing a salvager to open 'cans'. I have a flight of salvage drones that I carried when doing missions, will those work on exploration to open these cans? Or do I have to use up one of my high slots?
And if I do, is there any |

I think ccp removed that part. But lets wait and double check what other people say.

There are no more salvageable cans in exploration sites (other than very few exceptions such as COSMOS sites). A data and relic analyzer are the only tools you'll need.
If you want to conserve slots, carry a Mobile Depot with you. You can fly around in your travel or combat fit, and when you find a site you can deploy the depot and fit the appropriate research tool. |

I have a salvager on the droneboat proteus fit since its got 3 spare highslots, and use it to salvage the overseer wrecks. If I had a ship that had less than 3 utility slots I would ditch the salvager.

If you want to focus on relic/data sites you will need:
T1 exploring frigate, relic + data analyzer, cargo scanner.
Start out by doing the explorer tutorial, that will point you into the right direction and teach you how to use the probes, and the hacking mini game.
If you want to go into low/null you really need a T2 covt ops frigate with covt ops cloak, and preferably a T2 relic/data analyzer. The T2 analyzers aren't required, but with them you will finish sites waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay faster, the easy sites will just be click click loot yay ;)
Also fit a cargo scanner, and scan the cans so you know what containers to pick, there's a site somewhere that lists what's in what. eg. BPCs are in data containers, so are skillbooks. Decryptors are in parts containers etc...
Stay away from ghost sites! Though the have hackable containers, you cannot complete these in a frigate. (these sites start with lesser ..... in high sec)
Forget about mobile depots, they take up too much space in your cargo hold, and you shouldn't be fighting in that frigate anyways; hence the covt ops cloak for null/low. |
