OK, back in the day, the best looting cuiser was the exequror due to it's big cargo bay. But now with the salvaging, I need more than 4 turrets. There is no gallente T1 cruiser with 6 turrets (yeah, I want six). I have to decide from one of these:
1) Maller - This also has 6 lows...good 2) Moa - 3) Rupture 4) Stabber
Witch one would you pick? Or better yet, are you using one of those for looting/salvaging? If so, what you like about it?
Thanks

Personnally, I use a Cormorant. 8 highs for tractors and salvagers. The single low gets an EC II. Mids are loaded with cap rechargers and an afterburner.
I also added salvage rigs.
The cargo capacity is plenty for lvl 3 missions, and then some. Besides, salvage is worth more than the crap loot you find nowadays.
I would stay away from cruisers because the higher cargo capacity isn't worth the effectiveness of a full complement of tractors and salvagers.

Granted, the loot is crap. But if I'm going to salvage, I may as well loot. Every level 4 gives at least one big gun that sells over 500k... on some ocasions I get a modal mega neutron blaster. Usually I make 2m or 3m in loot. The rest is melted to make ammo. But back to topic, I tried with a destroyer before and it just don't have enough cargo space. Missions like serpentis stravaganza can give you over 2k m3 in loot and salvage. Even more if you get a lot of scrapmetal from the salvage. The destroyer is not enough. To many warp outs just to unload. Thats why I'm using cruisers.
Those salvaging rigs sound good though. |

I have found that my gallente destryoer needs to make about 2 trips for a bis level 4... so, I am actually making the trips now and will then use the cargohold expander IIs in the lows and once I get the parts, I will be adding the Cargo optimizers rigs as well. I salvage after I kill everything, so no need to care for armor on this looting and salvaging ship.

I tried various destroyers for my lvl 4 looting/salvaging needs ... and I quicly went back to my trusty Exeqror, the cargohold is what did it (1741m¦ with Gal Cruiser 4 and 3 Expanded Cargohold IIs).
2 tractors + 2 salvagers, Salvaging 4 and 3 Salvage Tackle rigs = 70% chance of cleaning the wreck on the first try (I very rarely need more than one cycle to salvage a wreck, and at the worst it takes 3 cycles), no real need for more high slots ... I have trouble keeping pace with my targeting of the wrecks already ...

I use a cat destroyer for my salvage ship. He has no problems with space with EC fittings plus he was cheep to build out. 2 tractors and 6 salvagers make quick work. He also has an AB for teh boot to over 330k/s for the large distances he needs to travel.
The only mission, lvl 3, that even comes close are the drone missions wirth all the minerals they drop. I jet any metal salvage I get if it becomes a space issue.

If your gona use a cruiser for it then do it in style - ashimu (sp?)
7 highs and 6 lows... you can't go wrong.

I use a stabber, simply for the speed
Salvaging/looting isn't worth it if it takes you half an hour to do a mission, maybe it's financially worth it, but it's so damn boring...
A stabber is fast enough, has 6 turrets, and some lows, it works fine for me.
