EVE General Discussion

You could use an alt to scan out ships in well known mission runner systems, dodixie for example, then wait for them to finish, bookmark it, warp in a Noctis or any salvager ship, hurricane is a good one until you can use Noctis, then salvage away.

In the good old days before the AI was changed on the NPC's you could just salvage anyway. Ninja salvaging is fun.

Remember, salvaging other people's wrecks is fine and you don't get aggro for it. Looting is another matter........ (though can be fun to loot bait too!)

If you find a system populated by a big mining corps you could work a deal out with them to just salvage the pirate wrecks. its not uncommon in .6 and lower to come across belts that are littered with wrecks because the miners just don't bother with salvage.

Most of the loot drops are cht anyway and mostly junk, yeah there's sometimes some really rare drops but going around and stealing stuff the way you make it sound like you just enjoy annoying others.

Really I don't see the point of that because if it make you happy to be a fly in the game then you probably need to take a break.

But anyway, you can do all this without being a fly, get a cloaky ship fly to combat spawns and bookmark existing combat spawns in the system, (a Astero is ideal), warp too...30KM see whats going on, if combat is over and wrecks are just left behind feel free to salvage, looting is probably ok but keep in mind as you say you leave yourself open to attack.

How to profit; build rigs, sell salvage, I have several millions worth of salvage and several millions in rigs all because I am salvaging bloodraiders wreaks that others are busily running to get the prizes, I have almost NO competition and nobody really cares, just wait for the spawn icon disappear so that they don't feel threatened that your there to steal their prizes, in the second room landing cloaky, if they are salvaging (99% of the time their gone), then just leave, nobody's feelings get hurt, I know people love annoying others because they are trying to play "like their hardcore" and not afraid to challenge others but it's typical chimp behavior (not a joke), seriously chimps are always trying to intimidate each other which when I see "humanzees" doing this it amuses me that they have to act out and don't even realize what they look too others or do and they don't care about being a tree swinger, which if this is what they have accepted for themselves says something about them which In that case, I take pity on them and I blue the loot because they can't help themselves, sounds elitist to post that but it's totally not, I am not meaning it in that way.

Selling the minerals is cool but you would want to invest in skills for reprocessing and find a Citadel or station with good reprocessing and build rep with the NPC Corp to lower you cost to zero for reprocessing, it's the only way to squeeze out a few ISK, then move on to buy orders (trading), so you buy stuff from players selling loot at below what you get out of reprocessing for minerals this way it's like that "penny doubling" thing, eventually it will grow.

there is one corp that does what you say, but they charge high fees, last time i looked it was something 60-70% of the take was theirs for salvaging, so a lower price would be nice/used.

they have mission runners bm the sites and contract it to the corp, then sell and do the split
