How long does it generally take?
I've been sat here for 10 minutes now and had hundreds of failed attempts...
There are 5 T2 wrecks I want to salvage but if it takes this long... :(
I have salvaging 3.

Might take for ever....
With Salvaging Lvl 4 (or lvl3 + 1X salvage rig) you wouldnt have any real problem... But with lvl 3 the chance to salvage 1X T2 wrecks (never mind 5) in 2hrs would be very lucky!!
So... Good luck!!

Edited by: Tasko Pal on 10/08/2008 05:08:00 What the good Commodore said. You need salvager 4 or salvage tackles. I had the same experience with an inty wreck. Twenty minutes of salvage attempts (at salvaging 3) and nothing. Then I get my catalyst destroyer with 3 salvage tackles (it was about 12 jumps away) and get it on the second attempt.

Nonsense. It will take a few minutes with Salvaging 3, but you're unlucky to not have succeeded already after 10 minutes.

I thought T2 and faction wrecks required Salvaging 4 to salvage?

3. 4 and 5 just increase your chances even further.

You need salvaging 3 to salvage T2 wrecks. So at that level you only have a 5% chance to successfully salvage per attempt. ---

Just because you need it, doesn't mean the previous levels no longer apply.
There will be a base difficulty though, so maybe T2 rigs are 1 in 30 attempts (guess), with lvl 3 skills it would be 1 in just over 28 attempts, with lvl 4 and a few salvage tackle it would be one in every 19 attempts. etc. So alot of it is down to chance, there's no reason why with level 3 skills you can't hit it on the first try, and sit there for an hour with lvl 5 skills and 3 salvage tackles. It's just that the chance of that is fairly low. The more skills / salvage tackles you have, and the more salvagers, the less time it will take on average. It's like raffle tickets, you can win with just one, but you have a greater chance of being drawn first (or earlier) if you have more.
Having two salvagers instead of one will double your chance, which does more for you than any salvage tackle or level of any skill. The more salvagers the better, the skills etc do help if you're doing ALOT of salvaging though, a few seconds here and there will add up.

With increased lvl in salvaging does it mean you are more likely to get more salvage or just you'll get what's there but quicker, or both?

Just quicker, the salvage is determined at the time the ship is destroyed and the wreck created, after that it's just a matter of how fast you extract it.
