A guide on making money, AUEC, from salvage mission running in Star Citizen patch 3.22.

I should have tracked my income a bit better, but you can see some of the numbers throughout the vid. I did miss the intial amount, but you can calculate that with the difference from the frist 80K quest completion and the first menu screen.

    The income from this mission has been dropped so this guide is not relevant as of 3.23's release
  • straight to the point. useful information. not advertising a bunch of junk at the beginning. Thank god. Goated video. Subbed just cause this was worth the time to watch.
  • @migtin688
    From this laptop I have the volume up to 100% and you are getting masked by the background noise. If I could turn your volume up and the "background" down a tad I would instead of relying on CC. I have no comments yet because I paused it at 23 seconds... will put more in after. Great video. Lots of good information. The sound issue was limited to the beginning. This was worthy of a sub.
  • @TemplarGuardian
    So, it looks like I made 560,000 just during this vid( not including the sale of the cargo box materials). I started with 13,840,806 at the start of the vid (13,920,806 - 80,000 from the first salvage shown on screen), compared to the ending screen of 14,400,806. The 23 boxs should sell for about 130K as well. Putting the total closer to 700K in about 30 minutes

    Your content is fantastic man. Good info and delivery. I’ve been a casual player for a couple of years and have a pretty good fleet, but am learning the salvage ropes in my reclaimer and am basically a rookie with this stuff. This video is EXACTLY what I was looking for.
  • @Little1-1
    Well done bro!! Grinding to 15M for the reclaimer is much worth it. With reclaimer you can push to 11M/h 😮😮

    Great vid, gained a follower. Owned this game many years but only now just able to start diving into it for myself. Very helpful video, particularly like the fact you mention what keys you’re pressing as you do it. Every other YouTuber, that I’ve watched anyway never do this. They just walk through something or tell you what to do but they don’t go into that kind of detail that an absolute noobie finds helpful.

    Just got the Vulture so definitely be trying these missions out!
  • I like your style of giving clear and useful information. Def subscribing to your channel. Looking forward to watching the reclaimer one next.
  • As an FYI, X is your spacebrake and will use your Boost and the best thrusters available to stop your ship in whatever directions it's traveling. If you're going in a straight line it'll utilize your retro thrusters, which by default will slow you if you're in coupled mode, but faster because of the boost. If you flip it'll use your MAIN thrusters, which are more powerful and will slow you the fastest by using X... Or just flipping in coupled mode and holding boost will also do the exact same thing. X is just a single key that works in any direction and I believe also whether you're coupled or not. While coupled the boost key and X do the exact same thing while you're coasting or reversing thrust, as coupled mode tries to use thrusters to keep you as much as possible in the vector your pressed thruster keys indicate, which if none are it thinks you want to come to a full stop.
  • Very nice video. I’ve been salvaging with the vulture since it was released. If you do a few of the General Salvage missions, you’ll get the missions you can buy for50K aUEC.while you can’t FRAC the Hammerhead and the A2, C2, and M2, you can make up to 750K aUEC for each job. They take longer, but you don’t have to worry about a Trespassing CS. Haven’t tried the Personal missions yet, but CIG might have changed them so you can’t just fracture and complete the mission. Also, to all the new players drooling to get a salvage ship, just be aware that based on my experience from 3.13 until now, CIG will definitely be nerfing the salvage loop in 3.23, so I would advise against pledging for a salvage ship unless you want to make it a long term loop, and not just an aUEC printing machine.
  • @Alkamone
    Thanks for this. Genuinely helpful. Audio balance makes it hard to hear you some times, but very good video
  • @Oinnelstan
    Hi. Great vid. I just bought the Vulture and am enjoying its gameplay. I am keen to try these missions. One Quality of Life tip: if you approach the ladder from the upper deck walking "backwards", you'll drop straight down to the lower deck without going through the "climb down the ladder: animation.
  • @dianeweaver8379
    Excellent video! I avoided taking salvage contracts because I thought the only ones available required us to pay to get a claim, and besides, I hate the shooty parts of the game. Making 80k just to fracture a Connie sounds like a great way to go. Salvage has been tough for not doing the contracts. When I went looking for Salvage Panel clusters, the scanner would stop showing where the panels were when I came with in 5 km to the cluster and it would require traveling slowly and hitting F4 to look around outside a lot, before I might stumble on a panel, because their albedo is close to zero, so they would be practically invisible This is even with using a Reshade low light preset. However, at 13k aUEC per SCU of Recycled Material Composite, it is quite lucrative. The highest number of crates I could fit in my Vulture hold was 23, including 1 on the ejector belt. With another 13 SCU worth in the buffer (for 36 SCU), I was getting 478k aUEC per run, but that single run would take me 4 hours. So on a aUEC/hour basis, I wasn't making as much as I could. Thank you for the tips! I will have to give it a try.
  • @1thefenex
    Thank you man, i was actually able to fit 25 boxes, one in the buffer and 13 salvaged, ended up with 39 scus per run and was able to buy the reclaimer in about 4 days 😁
  • @danielw.3670
    I did same thing for a while but I would take the cargo gold and Quantanium and then fill up buffers hull full of Quantanium is a lot more then the mission pay out
  • @theack777
    Hey this is the best tutorial on the vulture that I've seen, and I've been looking. No one else tells us about the simple little things like what keys to push to do all the different things and I LOVE that because for anyone who is new to SC we don't know anything, and a lot of guys just assume we know the little things to do and then I just get lost! Thank you and I just subscribed and hit the see all bell. I hope you get loads of subs., and your channel builds awesome for you. Ill share your channel with anyone I talk to!! One thing I will say though. Sometimes I have to rewind to hear like what key to press because you voice isn't louder than the game noise so I would try to lower the game sound a bit and raise your audio just a hair.
  • @anton_rotanov
    Hi! 50% of the time I manage to get 25 crates there, you fill up the grid, fill up the walkway, and then the corner, while standing in the doorway to the stairs. The final trick is to make that last button push on the depot panel, to make it print the last 25th crate.
  • @UnknownMoses
    I don’t see them as unfinished features in this game rather than bugs because the game is still in development and is nowhere near release.
