The "Loot Magnet" is best. Was it "Gold Magnate"?  |

My solution is to clear the mission area/combat area then come back w/ a salvo-destroyer. Catalyst is my choice setup:
high: 4x salvo, 4x tractor beam
mid: AB, Sensor booster
low: 3x T2 cargo expanders
Sensor booster? Wha? What's the point in a 54km targetting range when tractors don't work past 20? Drop the booster and pop in cap recharger ftw.
I personally like 5x salv 3x tractors for timing purposes, but thats just me. |

^This.^
I find that the Golem's 4/3 is a pretty good fit but 5/3 would be better (my Lootageddon was nice). Over 3500m3 of cargo means I never need a hauler. The tractor range means I hardly ever have to move.
I run the missions in an NH then come back in the Golem. I can clean up GE4 in less than 15 minutes.
Typically I salvage stuff first then get the contents of surviving cans. That saves the time wasted looking in empty cans for loot.
Cost-wise a Golem doesn't really make sense but it does make salvaging less hassle. That stops me from running missions back to back which reduces the boredom factor a little. For me it's about convenience. I'm wealthy enough not to be interested in profit but it's handy to have my own private stock of loot/salvage. The Golem means that I maintain that stock without dreading the experience.

Just to point this out, are you aware that cans with loot appear as solid white icons, whereas empty cans (ie salvage only) appear as 'empty' icons?

Yes, thanks :)
Unfortunately it's not a huge visual difference and concentrating enough to see it and make a decision upsets my natural rhythm. 'Always salvage' is easier to work with than 'Check if it has loot, maybe loot it, then salvage' :)

An Eris with salvage rigs is pretty nice. 8 highs for tractors/salvagers (I use 4/4 myself), about 1k cargo space with expanders, and good speed on afterburner.
