It's called a Coercer, look into it.
Seriously, are you really running into that many wrecks that you need boosts to the salvage time? Is your fitting so tight that you can't fit 6 salvagers and 2 tractor beams to a destroyer? A 20km tractor beam isn't enough?
This is, quite frankly, a stupid idea.
It's called a warship, look into it
Oh right, because warships have never been retrofitted into secondary uses before.
Listen, a class of ships already exists that is an excellent salvage platform. There is absolutely no need to make an entirely new class of ships to make a super excellent salvage platform. If anybody can give me a good reason why the current destroyer class isn't a good salvage platform (and no, "it's called a warship" is not a good reason) then I'll gladly concede the point. However, destroyers can already fit a full array of salvaging modules and salvage very well.
The only possible thing I can see is module improvements. Nobody's suggested named tractor beams that would increase the range, increase the drag speed, or decrease the cap use (or any combination of those three). Nobody's suggested named salvagers that would increase the salvage rate, increase the salvage distance, decrease the cap use, or increase the salvage amount (or any combination of those four). Why not? |

Now those are good ideas. A T2 tractor with a better drag speed and 22km range. Or tractor rigs. There are salvage rigs, why not tractor ones?
That's a whole lot simpler than adding an entirely new ship.
As mentioned elsewhere in the topic I don't think that an increase in salvage amount is going to happen. When you run a mission you get pretty much the same kind and amount of salvage every time. I'm pretty sure its a set amount available on a per mission basis to keep balance.

I think it's a good idea, but there are definate problems with it.
Destroyers, at least on the low end, have the salvager role dominated. After all, what else are they good for? Could it be a T2 ish destroyer, but give it salvaging bonuses instead?

no, destroyers are anti-frigate ships. reason theye are used for salvaging is decend speed and cargo and 8 highs.

hey hey
Destroyer Class is perfect for salvaging but Id certainly sign up for a ship that gives a bonus to tractor & salvager range.
The large cargo size isnt realy required and the 2km3 + 4 lows as suggested would be a little overpowered, maybe give it a large cargo bay with 1 low slot.

yes come to think of it ammar bs can mine so kill all mining barges...
come to think of it a ammar bs can shoot so get rid of all other ships...
come to think of it ammar has a cargo hold so get rid of cargo ships
come to think of it ammar need a nerf

A salvage fitted hurricane salvages as quickly as is possible without extended range tractor beams.
