Star Citizen: New Solo Structural Salvaging with Vulture - Guide

[@gibson1005]

I think my strategy is a bit quicker : I only do the illegal clean up mission on Yela, that's 80 000 aUEC of reward per contract : - Get the mission and go to marker - Fracture the ship, it's either a Connie or Cuttie, get 80k instantly - Disintegrate only the main piece to fill up the buffer in one go - Then I QT to either OM 1 or 2 of Yela to unload the buffer - During the process I check if another 80k contrat have poped up Some observations : - Between the grid, the buffer and the empty space in the vulture, you can store max 36 SCU of CM (that's 3 buffers, so 3x80k contracts). - Emptying the buffer takes 3 to 4 min. Times 3 that's around 10min of cargo management. - Selling CM to Grim Hex takes also a few minutes, lets say 5 because you have to do it twice per run ( 1run = 36 SCU) - If no 80k contracts are available, I usually log out from bed and reload, adding 30s to 1min each time. So per run : - 80k x3 = 240 000 aUEC - 36 SCU x 5 969 aUEC = 214 884 aUEC - total = 454 884 aUEC of pure profit per run - between 15 to 20 min per run (3 contracts + 3 cargo filling + transit) That give us an approximate 934 884 aUEC per hour. Much easier to transit around Yela, but you do have to took out for campers and pirates, and be a little lucky with contracts availability

Nice and detailed…never tried this way, since using the SRV for those illegal missions, but will definitely will try it. Thanks fir this tip and also for watching my recording. Enjoy the holiday season.

[@Red_ger]

The SRV gives you a CS, if you do not enter the ship to be towed before. I tried a 80k mission and scraped and also ended with a CS. So breakn go sounds the best way. #edit: figured out the 2nd abrasive with the tractor triggers the CS. Illegal towing as with the SRV

If you say go to the Halo and just look for wrecks can you salvage them or will that give you a crimestat?

[@valsimgames]

NO there is NO Crimestat for that. You can salvage the wrecks and also after that you can fracture and desintegrate them. I did not tested yet in 3.22 but in the previous patches, the wrecks were very rare and difficult to find. I heard that this has changed now, especially arround the L1 stations. If you like I can send you a link with the exact distance to Halo belt from any station…@@BerraLJ

@@valsimgames thanks for the reply, i do have that image i tend to go from CRU-L1 myself.

I make about 300k an hour Gross. I use the vulture and I Frak and run. No loot. Thats if and when everything clicks. I do loose a load now and again to a crash. It hurts because my loads are a back full of crates and a hopper full. Nice video, Thanks!

[@nooneeyeno]

That's how I salvage, It takes some time to sell, always no demand, have to wait for the server clock. and trame and fly back. For me, a C2 takes about 2 to 3 hours from start to finish.

[@valsimgames]

Thanks for tour feedback…At the moment indeed everybody is doing salvage and there is some times no demand, but if I’m not mistaken the demand is refreshing every 10min at the TDDs…The most important is to go to the end…and cash, right? Thanks for watching and happy holidays.

[@noslyw76]

perfect! i saw about 9 videos about fracture.. and none of than show me the commands! thank !!

[@valsimgames]

You're welcome!

[@Gizmoplays]

Great video, amazing info! Thanks so much!

[@valsimgames]

Glad it was helpful! - Thanks for watching

[@mike_d_melb_music_fan5229]

It appears the Vulture has an occasional bug where scraping will not fill the buffer. Fracturing still works. I fixed this by insurance claiming the Vulture.

[@valsimgames]

Indeed, you have the same bug with the Reclaimer. The solution is to make a fresh claim before starting a salvage mission if you want to salvage…no need indeed if you want to do just fracturing…

[@mike_d_melb_music_fan5229]

I've added my experience to a ticket in the issues-council site. The issue needs another five reportings by users in the next 2 days for it to be recognized as an issue. So If anyone wants to add to it ? I can't post the url in YT comment s unfortunately .

[@valsimgames]

It’s a good action from you to open a ticket. Did you check whether there is no already an existing ticket with the same issue, so that you can add your experience too. Not big expert myself…will look the tickets list asap…

[@mike_d_melb_music_fan5229]

@valsimgames oh I didn't open the ticket. Some guy on Reddditt put me on to it. I've had no experience with issues council , but I'll definitely participate more now.

[@billcedarheath387]

You can actually fit more crates in the back. I stack the grid and non-grid to get 23 crates plus what is in the filler station which I process after I sell what is in the back. You’ll need to get out from the drivers door rather than go out the back when you exit the ship.

[@williamsideas]

good video! How are controling the smaller arms?

[@valsimgames]

Do you mean the left or right salvage arms of the Vulture?

[@drivennale8551]

Loot and scoot with the reclaimer solo, a few hrs will net 8+ million. No stripping, grabbing minimal cargo.

[@valsimgames]

Indeed this now in 3.22 is the money printing ship. However the Reclaimer cost over 15mil in game, so not an option for a new player and inexperienced pilot…The Reclaimer is a very big ship and not easy to fly with it as least in atmosphere…but if you are a lucky owner of a Reclaimer you should go for it…I have only the Vulture, so trying to find ways to increase the profit with…Thanks for your comments and for watching my video…
