Tahliat	Posted - 2007.01.09 07:29:00 - [1] I am finally training salvaging as a skill and i was thinking what kind of ships everybody uses.. I was thinking of using a inquisitor for instead of an industrial for 3 reasons: 1) Better Speed. 2) There isn't much point of having cargo space in the thousants if u dont use it (don't know how much cargo space loot from salvaging takes but i guess some hundred's of m3). 3) It has 4 high slots so i can fit 2 Tractor beams and 2 Salvaging Modules cutting time in half just for salvaging from an industrial. So i ll strap on an afterburner/mwd and expanded cargohold and its good to go Any comments about this fitting? I intend to use it after i clear missions to scoop up loot and salvage (I currently do lvl 3 missions so i guess the cargo space will be ok) and i can get around 500 cargo space with it from basic expanders
Trracer Foundation R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.01.09 08:29:00 - [2] I use a vexor with 4 salvagers, 1 tractorbeam, AB, med extender, shield booster, signal booster and a mix of nanos and istabs for highsec belt salvage (I zoom around and clean out other ppls rat wrecks) and use the drones for the occasional rat. Some ppl have mentioned the destroyer as an excellent platform for salvaging but I disagree since it has cap issues. Welcome to Caldari online!
Nice View Gallente	Posted - 2007.01.09 08:46:00 - [3] Brutix is great salvage ship. High: 3x Tractor 4x Salvager Mid: 1x 10mn AB-II 3x What ever you want (Shield tank?) Low: 5x Cargo EXP (950+ m3 space)
Spanker Genco	Posted - 2007.01.09 08:55:00 - [4] I use an Ishtar with 2x tractor 3x salvager. That way you can actually kill things so you can salvage them. Like do certain lvl 3 missions and just rake in the parts. - Shpank
Naran Darkmood Gallente	Posted - 2007.01.09 08:59:00 - [5] Originally by: Trracer I use a vexor with 4 salvagers, 1 tractorbeam, AB, med extender, shield booster, signal booster and a mix of nanos and istabs for highsec belt salvage (I zoom around and clean out other ppls rat wrecks) and use the drones for the occasional rat. Some ppl have mentioned the destroyer as an excellent platform for salvaging but I disagree since it has cap issues. When using a Gallente cruiser, I'd go for a Exquoror. 4 higs & cargo bonus, so it's nice and easy. I'm using a Megathron for salvaging 4/4 in highs, MWD, cap rechargers, expanders and Nanos. 1500 m3 loot at 134m/s (over 1000 m/s with MWD). I can clean out most lvl4 mission in one go, and I have a backup BS avaible, if the mission is not suited for my Domi (drones aggro and stuff) Originally by: Jiekon From what i`m aware of, reading the game rules, it's not against any rules to mine
Sir Bart Vendetta Underground Rule of Three	Posted - 2007.01.09 09:02:00 - [6] Nano Domi. -Bart
Flitz Farseeker Gallente Eve guardians	Posted - 2007.01.09 09:20:00 - [7] Exequror with 1 tractor and 3 salvagers. With over 1000 m3, I can loot and salvage at the same time.
Jeretomi Azure Horizon Coalition Of Empires	Posted - 2007.01.09 09:33:00 - [8] As long as you're not expecting hostiles, a destroyer makes a great salvage vessel....3x tractors and 4x salvagers on my Cormorant, almost frigate speed, plus it's reasonably good size cargo make things reasonably easy.
Hesod Adee Bright New Dawn	Posted - 2007.01.09 09:45:00 - [9] I use an Exquoror, 4 salvagers in high, nanos in low and and AB. I'm hoping that once I get to use MWDs that I can stick enough cap recharge boosts on to run an MWD indefinitely. One thing I found with mission looting before salvaging came in was that my playstyle (rails + keep at range) means that the loot is dropped in a long line instead of a blob. This means that I wanted decent speed to move around, and because this is over 500m/s currently a tractor beam isn't any use for me. And thats before considering the missions that place the NPC groups some distance from each other, meaning more travel. So I use the 4 salvagers. I try to position myself with multiple wrecks in salvage range, but this isn't always possible (especially if they still have loot in them). If I can get multiple in range I will split the salvagers between them, but otherwise I will run all 4 on the one wreck. ----------------- My door is always open, just don't go in.
Imaos	Posted - 2007.01.09 10:41:00 - [10] I use an exequror because destroyer dont have enough cargo and especially cap. Even with ~1500m¦ cargo I have to jump out mutliple times on some missions (lvl4). I use 2 tractors and 2 salvager so I can pull 2 cans behind me while running to the third. One has both salvagers on it while the other is in waiting.
Daftex Muleson Minmatar UNITED KINGDOM MAYHEM	Posted - 2007.01.09 10:56:00 - [11] Thrasher is a great salvager. With my current skills I can fit 4 salvagers and 2 tractors. AB and Shield Booster in mids and CPU plus Nano in lows.
FireFoxx80 Caldari E X O D U S Imperial Republic Of the North	Posted - 2007.01.09 11:16:00 - [12] Exequror, its bonus to cargo capacity and 4 highs make it an excellent salvage ship. What I do the rest of the time - Vote for a Jita bypass!
AFTRUNX Caldari Human Liberty Syndicate	Posted - 2007.01.09 11:22:00 - [13] i use for lvl4 missions a Destroyer (Cormorant) 5x Salvager, 3x Tractor beams 1x AB, 1x Sensor booster 1x Cargo extender Ratting: i rat with a corp mate.. he kill i salvage... very fast way to clean belts :) AFTRUNX It's great to be a Caldari....
chinnychinchin	Posted - 2007.01.09 13:23:00 - [14] If doing large lvl4s I do the mission, then go back with an exeq to loot 4 tractors HS8 MWD med cap battery cap re cap re 3 named expanders with a sec container in hold to get even more room I try to go in a straight line through the miss as much as poss with the other cans in clumps then I come back with a catalyst 8 salvagers (norm use in groups of 2 on targets) 1mn MWD small cap battery I think 3 cap relays had no cap problems from what I remember
Shan'Talasha Mea'Questa The Perfect Harvesting Experience	Posted - 2007.01.09 13:46:00 - [15] Typhoon: 4 Tractor Beam 4 Salvager I 100mn AB II Slot 2 (who cares) Slot 3 (who cares) Slot 4 (who cares) Signal Amplifier II (makes me able to lock 8 targets with this ship) 3 Partial Hull Expanded Cargohold (because I had them handy, gives over 1100m3 cargo space) 2 D-Type Nanofibre 1 D-Type Inertial Stabilizer Not to fast, not too slow and you can drag 4 cans behind you as you move to the next cluster of cans and salvage each of them at the same time. I had a similair setup in a Catalyst but found out it lacked cargo-space so I upgraded to a Phoon. Typhoon > Any other BS so far: Faster and lighter+7 low.
FreeHansjeToo	Posted - 2007.01.09 14:18:00 - [16] A destroyer is a great salvager: many slots for tractors and salvagers, fit a AB, plenty of cargo, if you wish add an extender or 2. I cant imagine anyone going salvaging with a fightingship: you usually go salvaging after the fight, so you need to change ships. Or is there anyone out there who goes hunting and has a slot or 2 for salvaging mods...?

I think that would be faster. Also, why the AB instead of microwarp? -Bart
Lucius Beck	Posted - 2007.01.10 06:00:00 - [18] I second (or is it 3rd or 4th?) the Destroyer post. I loot and salvage simultaneously all of my level 4 missions in my Cormorant. Setup: Hislots 5x TB 3x Salvager I (by the way, running all 3 on a wreck at one time seems to work faster) Midslots 1x 1MN AB II (400m/s) 2x Cap Recharger Lowslot 1x Expanded Cargo II Rigs 3x Cargo Optimization (15% increase per with a drawback of armor strength) 757m3 cargo space, fast and cap never runs out. Works like a charm and very fast. LB
DunNa	Posted - 2007.01.10 06:12:00 - [19] Thrasher... 6x salvager, 2x tractor (possibly going 5/3) AB, 2 cap rechargers 2 cargo expanders I never have any issues with cap and aslong as I can tractor the wrecks I can work my way through loads of wrecks in sort order. The only real problem I have is cargo space, but atm I just jet can all the loot and only hold on to the rig peices then stash those once I get about 500m3 (I just fly alliance space salvaging left over wrecks and such when I'm board :P )

Stunod Niknud	Posted - 2007.01.10 14:41:00 - [21] I'm a big fan of using a destroyer to clean up the wrecks after a fight. They're small and fast and can be equipped to have decent cargo space. I always equip a MWD for cleaning belts in one of the mid slots. Good for quickly closing the gap between wreck clusters. A cruiser sized AB should fit for complexes where the MWD doesn't work. In complexes or missions, having another account with an industrial can help haul, but are not necessary. You can always tractor a jetcan around for extra storage and come back later with an industrial. Here is a comparison of the four racial destroyers: Amarr: Coercer Hi: 8, Med: 1, Low: 4, Vel: 220 m/s, Cargo: 300 m3 With expander 1s: 180 m/s, 580m3 With nanofibers: 300 m/s Caldari: Commorant Hi: 8, Med: 4, Low: 1, Vel: 210 m/s, Cargo: 450 m3 With expander 1s: 200 m/s, 531 m3 With nanofibers: 230 m/s Gallente: Catalyst Hi: 8, Med: 2, Low: 3, Vel: 225 m/s, Cargo: 400 m3 With expander 1s: 195 m/s, 656 m3 With nanofibers: 285 m/s Minmatar: Thrasher Hi: 8, Med: 3, Low: 2, Vel: 240 m/s, Cargo: 400 m3 With expander 1s: 220 m/s, 556 m3 With nanofibers: 280 m/s I like the catalyst for belts. It can be set up for the largest cargo space, but will have trouble with more than four salvagers runnings at once with only one mid-slot dedicated to capacitor recharge. In a complex or after a mission, the Commorant has the capacitor staying power to run up to six salvagers with three midslots for capacitor recharge. You'll have to play with your high slot layout. I've had good results with 3 tractors / 5 salvagers. There does not seem to be a stacking penalty for using multiple salvagers on the same ship atm. I'll usually work on two ships at once, three salvagers on a battleship, and two on anything smaller, while tractoring in another.
MrTripps Gallente	Posted - 2007.01.10 14:41:00 - [22] Originally by: FreeHansjeToo Or is there anyone out there who goes hunting and has a slot or 2 for salvaging mods...? Yep. I have a salvager and a tractor on my ratting Domi. It isn't fast, but you don't have to bother with switching ships. The salvager replaced a Prototype Dual 250. With the extra grid I replaced the 100ABII with a 100MWDII. Dedicated salvage ship is a Catalyst though the cargo cruiser would work well too. Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so. - Bertrand Russell
Luscious Boo'Tay	Posted - 2007.01.10 14:49:00 - [23] do you think 8 salvagers on a catalyst is too much?
Teadrinker	Posted - 2007.01.10 19:11:00 - [24] Originally by: FreeHansjeToo A destroyer is a great salvager... Or is there anyone out there who goes hunting and has a slot or 2 for salvaging mods...? Well, I've been ratting in .3 space with 4 x 150MM Tech II railguns and a salvager on my Thorax...but that's kinda suboptimal, I have to admit. Think I'll try the destroyer idea. Love those 8 high slots on the Catalyst.
Barrier Solo Infinity Shipyard Masters Interstellar Starbase Syndicate	Posted - 2007.01.10 20:39:00 - [25] I was using a harbinger with 4 tractors and 4 salvagers for a while to loot and salvage L4's. I switched back to an Exequoror with 2 tractors and 2 salvagers. Exeq is cheap and replaceable, warps fast and moves fast, with a big cargo bay. I can loot 97% or so from the missions, on average. Sometimes I have to come back to fill up again but usually I trash the junk to make space for more. Harbinger is wasted and slow as a looter, and a bigger loss if a WT wacks me at a gate. I found the total time I was spending with either ship was about the same. I don't really see the point in using a destroyer with 8 slots to loot L4's - there's just not enough room in cargo for nearly 1000m3 of cargo. Recently I added 2 Salvage Tackle rigs to the exeq, though I haven't noticed a large difference in looting speed. I will add one more to fill it up and see how that goes.

Jezick Tides of Silence	Posted - 2007.01.10 22:13:00 - [26] Commorant - used for cleaning up after Lvl 4 missions Hislots x4 TB's x4 Salvager I (x5 & x3 works, depends on mission your salvaging) Midslots x1 1MN AB II x1 Cap Recharger II's (can run x2 T1's if you like) Lowslot x1 Expanded Cargo II Rigs x2 Salvage Tackle I (using multiple salvagers per wreck dosn't help, Rigs improve 'changes' and therefore time and/or qty) x1 Cargo Optimization (never filled hold yet while running solo, maybe 3 salvagers??) Started off using a Drake cos it was lying around ,but being sensible, this is by far the most cost effective solution for mission runners. Eight Hislots and a good sized hold are key. If running as 'garbage collector' behind a killer, with this setup you have time to clear an area and unload before the next stage is complete.
Felzius Gallente Phoenix Wing Electus Matari	Posted - 2007.01.10 22:40:00 - [27] Megathron, keep having to dust the dust off of it anyway.. 4 salvagers and 4 beams mwd/ab cap rechargers (whatever) nanofibers and/or expanders
Max Kentarii Chaos Faction	Posted - 2007.01.10 23:29:00 - [28] Hurricane: Hi: 3x TB, 5x Salvager I Med: MWD/AB, Shield Booster, Sensor Booster, Cap Recharger Low: 3-6 Cargo expanders, 1-3 Nano/Inertia Large Secure Container in cargohold Since some of the missions are 80-100km across and cans do spread out, using MWD is actually not a bad idea. Just throttle it or fly to a big pile of wrecks and start tractoring while you sit still. Empty wrecks should only be tractored to within 5km since duration of TB is 5s. Deactivate when within range. Use 1-3 Salvager on each wreck depending on how many wrecks you have in range. For missions without salvage, I use an Exequror with 4 TBs, AB, SB, SB, 3x cargo expanders and 2x LSC. ----- Wreck Salvaging Database
BallsSnatcher	Posted - 2007.01.11 01:44:00 - [29] its funny you got all these ships. The commorant cost 2 mill. a Domi cost 100m. Why they hell would you spend so much money on a salvage rig? When the cheaper setup accually will do the job at the fraction of the price
Mesuno Azure Horizon Coalition Of Empires	Posted - 2007.01.11 18:01:00 - [30] Well i've just built myself a Drake for salvaging and looting. I'm looting belt rats exclusively, based in 0.0. My current layout is 4 TB/ 4 Salvagers 2 Large extender II's/2 Hardeners/ Signal Booster/MWD 3 named expanders + 1 nano That gives me about 600m/s with the MWD which only ever needs to be on briefly to get in range of clumps. I've also bought myself some rigs but haven't fitted them yet. I'm hoping it will speed up the process significantly. Originally by: t20 If it's not fixed by the christmas holidays, I'll most likely get fired. - on the forum "!" problem
