Archaeology!
Well, to be honest, the components I'm getting from archaeology are pretty valuable, and can build stuff, just like salvaging. Course, its not as widespread, but it does need a module to activate and use, just like salvage.
I'm gonna do both. Actually, Hacking, archaeology and salvage. Its great fun so far, and has brought my interest back to the game.
At the very least, you'll be really skilled at Moon Survey

I was lucky, I still had 2-3 days to go on servey 5 before I saw this change.
Where do you find things to do archaeology on, only COSMOS areas I would assume?

Cosmos, yes, but the devs implemented Exploration, which will have archaeology sites as well. Its all random, fast-paced moving sites, but if you find one and get the junk in it, you'll most likely be rewarded.

They shouldn't have changed the requirments in the first place. Who makes this game? CCP? Or complaining whiners who want everything the easy way?

Totally agreed. I think a salvager should be a specialized skill, like a miner.
I mean, the salvage components are atm uber-valuable, just like high-end asteroids.
Although, CCP appears to be changing to req's because I think they realized their plan of "Rigs for the masses" isn't panning out. If everyone can salvage, then rig prices will remain low in the long run. UNLESS...salvage stays as tedious as it is now.
But, mining is tedious, too. So hmm.

So...we need several level 5s to start mining? No, we can start mining pretty easily, but we suck at it. To get better at it, we need much more training, this is perhaps what salvage is missing atm, some skills and equipment for highly advanced salvagers? Like the difference between a guy mining in an osprey and a guy mining in a hulk.

Well, it does seem a bit odd that we need a level 5 skill (one of limited usefullness at best) just to start sucking at salvaging.
Oddly enough, I had already trained survey V in the past, for probes and for Hacking and Archaology.
However, in the interest of not being a total ***** (Ie. "I got Survey V, screw everyone else") I say, nerf the reqs for salvaging.
Edit: and while they're at it, how about making it so you don't fail to salvage the same wreck over and over and over and over.......just to find bubkus. Just fail and be done.

Hey, at least, those of us who've trained Survey V will be ready when a Salvager II shows up.

You are soooooooo wrong...
Salvaging is not a specialisation but Archaeology is!
so you need to bring your browser here
and enjoy!
Here's a quote: "Archaeology will be the lynchpin of Tech III, which is just around a corner (note I said a corner, not the corner)"
Thoses that have it to 5 will be happy, the other will whine about the high price of tech 3. |
