Any chance we can ever see a new salvage ship ?

I am one of those players who doesn't engage in a firefight, all i do is flying around in my Noctis. And business is good.

But I would like to see a bigger Salvage vessel. Maybe Battleship size.

I would love that :D

Unlikely we'll see another dedicated salvage boat. We might see salvaging bonuses on other boats though.

Oh god.

Technically, a Noctis is about the size of a Battleship graphics wise. Big smile I get what you meant though OP. I doubt there would ever be any other dedicated salvage ship.

Well, you have your Noctis for large salvage operations, the t1 exploration frigates if you prefer to be more mobile and mrauders and Strategic cruisers if you want something expensive and impractical. I don't think you're lacking options.

I've also heard the bombers are really good for ninja salvaging under gate camps.

I imagine a T2 Venture. The T1 one is made for mining in dangerous space: it's small, cheap, can mine fast and much. It's also a good ship for starters with mining ships.

Now, wouldn't you like a dedicated 'fast-salvaging' T2 Venture? In the same lines as the T1 one, focused on being fast and efficient on its role.
