I find duel boxing salvaging to be harder than duel boxing the missions since salvaging is such a click-fest.

".. once you have top drone skills there are no shiny modules you can buy to improve your DPS by spending a lot of ISK. "

Um

Drone Link Augmentor I and II (drone control range)
OmniDirectional Tracking Link I and II (Tracking & optimal range)

Just to be clear, these (cheap) modules seriously enhance the application of your sentry drone DPS. Also the Drone Navigation Computer for drone MWD speed.

Sentry Drone Damage Augmentor I and II - increased dps. The T1 mod is dirt cheap.

I played with dual-boxing for a while, using a Mach & a tanking Rattler. But frankly I found it too fiddly. Now instead, I have a fleet-boosting alt with mindlink in a Tengu. That allows the Mach or Nightmare I use for dps to ramp up the damage & tracking mods while still fielding a really decent local tank. The new T2 ganglinks make it even better :D

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

Yes, salvaging is a surprisingly attention intensive activity especially when you run with a 5/3 tractor / salv or 6/2 tractor / salv spread. Locking up 11 targets, pressing buttons nearly constantly to keep the stream of wrecks coming.

Aye, agreed. Although the 'Loot' button is a definite improvement. Some sad divvo, somewhere will soon enough take legal action against CCP for Carpal Tunnel or something similar. Big smile

Still nothing compared to Runescape.

As for salvaging I just don't bother anymore, my Machariel tears through missions so quickly it would be a detriment to attempt to divert my attention to salvaging. I would love to have a second account to come in with even more pew though, something like a sentry domi or a vindicator with sentries, or a nightmare. I always have two accounts active anyway since I need my block runner and orca gank base character. Might as well have a mission runner on there as well to assist.
