PS- Real ninja salvagers salvage in Null Sec. Seriously salvaging wrecks from gates and belts is a lot of fun and surprisingly profitable. You think you **** off mission runners when you steal their wrecks wait until you see the tears of gatecampers when you loot a wreck filled with T2 modules....


Ninja looting hisec mission runners is a waste of time. Experienced missioners just leave the loot behind or cherry pick for a good reason.

If you are going to ninja loot go for something more lucrative and risky - for example stealing the loot from freighter wrecks killed by gate campers / code..



You're making it sound as if the majority of mission runners aren't lazy non-effort clueless clowns incapable of dealing with others in any sort of way.


OP, As mentioned Stacmon is not where you want to be. Also if you find an active system make sure to scan off the plane of the system (above and below it), that way you avoid the ones sitting at station or in warp (mostly anyway) and you'll only get targets that are actually in a mission.

Just for notice, I started recording my ISK per hour in an excel document. So far high-sec mission ninja salvaging sits at roughly 4mil / h.
Ill today try scanning in Lowsec sites, thanks for all the tips altough I will probably not try out stuff like low-sec salvaging, sounds kinda suicidal.

One option that hasn't been mentioned is scanning down Mobile Tractor Units and shooting them. They are fairly easy to probe (IIRC sigrad:scanres ratio, which governs how hard you are to scan, is 6:1, which is on par with a battlecruiser and quite probable at low skills with 0.50 AU probe placement).


You mean abandoned ones or ones who are in missions at the time?
