Hey guys,

I am happy to say that im all set up in my new wormhole which has a c4 static. I have found that its taking me longer to salvage than it is to do the sites Sad.

I have seen it done before but everywhere I have ask they say it cant be done. How the hell do you loot all the cans at the same time? After you can finished salvaging it takes forever to loot each can.

Any other tips on pro wormhole salvaging would be appreciated!

Two ways to go about it, either you use a properly skilled noctis pilot, or then you salvage on the go with a legion that can tank even capital escalation waves... And you don't loot all the cans at the same time, the loot all button only empties one container at a time.

I'm using a noctis with tech 2 tractor beams, gives me around 82km range. While doing the site, I'll try to get a bookmark as close as possible to the middle of the engagement, so that I don't have to slowboat around to get to those 100km+ kills.
As for looting all the cans, I recently learned that opening them all first and them spamming "loot all" button works wonders. I used to open one and then loot it, rince and repeat, but this goes ALOT quicker. But it still takes time to salvage a site, so I'm using 2 characters to salvage Lol

Well, step one would be to not run C4 sites ;)

you open cans by "right click on overview -> open"? Or there is another better way?

Noctis with 5 tractors 3 salvagers, position yourself with everything in range if possible, tractor everything in, salvage as soon as it's in range, when you're done double click all the cans on the overview and spam loot all as already mentioned. Whole site salvaged in a few minutes.

Double-clicking works. It becomes a clicking stompede when you gather a good 20 cans, double click all of them and then click the "loot all" button for each window (that is nicely stacked ontop on each other so that you don't have to move the mouse to much). It's quite rewarding to think that you'll grabbing a good 50mil in a couple of seconds Bear

I love people who do this. I can just wait until they are almost done and pop the noctis.

IMO one key to successful WH salvaging is to stay aligned.

A max skill noctis pilot will have 96KM range. From running many sites I have figured out patterns to fly in order to keep everyone in range of the next spawn as well as where to save bookmarks for salvage warp ins to make sure I am in range of everything. Then I start with the furthest away wrecks as I align out.

Well I guess you could, if the second Archon wasn't still there repping it from the last ship of the escalation ;)

Which would be amazing, if you could find C4's with cap escalations (protip, the OP was specifically referencing C4 sites).

No trolling - needed some helpful advice from all the awesome wormhole pilot we have.

Tried all these tips and a lot quicker.

How hard is it when you tractored a can in and loot it right before you salvage this.
When using hotkey's it all takes less then a second.

Ore Indus V, Sience V and Salvage V gives range up to nearly 100km and fast salvage. I always catch up my guy's when they're doing their thingy even when they have a head start or 5 to 6 sites. if there's a higher risk, the speed tanked catalyst does his job fine enough

I only do this with 4 tractors II, 3 salvagers II, 1 cloak, 1 sebo, 1mwd/AB & some armor tank to survive 3 bombs.

4 bombs or 4 bombers? You won't have enough time to kill with 4 bombs from a single bomber. The torps on the other hand do the job well. Also, remmember, a noctis can fit ECM and combat drones now.


About the aligned advice in a c4 site. If your moving, your losing efficiency. Enough to add up past the cost of a rigged noctis in several sites. I have been ganked once and even then, i wasn't watching dscan or sigs at all, lost a combat ship in a site {much to the hilarity of the stalkers} & was severely drunk at the time.
