Destroyers. Noctis. Google.

Since destroyers aren't much good outside of blob warfare and getting blown up or ganking, they are most only good for salvaging. You can easily fit salvagers and tractors in their high slots and go to town.


Since the destroyer buff this isn't strictly true anymore, they're decent small-gang/solo PvP ships and are still perfectly decent for running L2s.

But, yeah, they're the best light-duty salvagers, better than the Noctis in, say, w-space where there's not a lot of volume.

Noctis.

Highs:
5x tractor beam, 3x salvager
Mids:
Sensor booster, cruiser mwd.
Lows:
Cargo expanders.

Works fine. A bit pricy, but it works great.



Considering the changes to the loot tables and the lower volume of drops, are Cargohold Expanders needed? Wouldn't armor hardeners or overdrive injectors be better?

The second you can get a Noctis, do it. If you like salvaging your missions, the quality of life improvement is worth every ISK of the hull cost.

4x tractor beams, 4x salvagers
10MN afterburner, SEBO
Lows are a crapshoot. I've never needed cargo expanders on any missions so far, so I nano mine to cut the obscene align time.
Rigs: salvage tackle of course.
