![Why is Salvaging Stuff so Relaxing and Fun? [Star Citizen]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/5v3MN1LH_qU/mqdefault.jpg)
Can’t get enough of the vulture, definitely my favorite ship in the game atm. Salvaging really is a calming gameplay loop, I need a massaging chair to make it that much better.
It’s such a peaceful way of life, and quite lucrative lol
Haha
You mention being a perfectionist so you should be using the Cinch module first time over as it is more efficient so you will get more salvage from the contract. Then afterwards go over it with the abrade to clean up the small missed bits.
Oh good to know, thanks for the tip!
i was thinking about trying to get a salvage ship this video definitely convinced me and showed me what to expect and how to do it. so thanks because im still fairly new to the game in general and dont have many friends that play or anyone to show me how to do things. Great video. would really like to see as many gameplay videos and how to videos as your willing to create they are very helpful.
Noted, thank you! Glad you enjoyed :)
The Drake Vulture looks more like an Argo design then anything and i mean that as a compliment. It's one of Drake's most clean and refined looking ships to date.
But now i want and Argo design.
I know what you mean!
True, With an orange paint you would never call it a drake ship
I wonder if the vulture is inspired by the ship called the “venture” in eve online. If you look it up it looks pretty similar to the vulture.
Your vids are just great Farrister... a really nice professional shine, relaxing to listen to, just a pleasure. Well done.
I love the salvage it’s very soothing they did a very good job on this! Great video mate thank you
Thanks, I enjoyed it too!
Great video Farrister. I wish I could get into the game right now as I've been having computer problems. Part of my Windows is corrupt. I do have a Vulture so once I get work done on the box, I should be able too do some Salvaging. I picked up my ship back when it was first released. Keep up the great videos. I enjoy every one. Take care my friend, fly safe, and I'll see you in the verse.
Ooof, sorry to read :( hope you get sorted soon!
Thanks for this post. I'm just getting back into SC after a year off for elder care. This is most useful and welcomed. Again, thanks so much.
The Vulture is a great ship. I'm thoroughly enjoying salvaging at the moment. I am looking forward to ship munching, and I hope we get that ability sooner rather than later. Thank you for the fantastic video, Farrister!
Yeah!!! Glad you enjoyed
Excellent, as always. Thanks for the tutorial. To me, that landing was incredible. I millimetre my way down, however based on your technique I might become a bit bolder.
I think it depends on the ship lol, smaller ships are easier to land, I think
You gotta gimbal that bad boy. The gimbal munchers make it easier to focus on one section at a time. Love the vids
Wasn't working well for me, I think due to control layout. Mouse didn't move the heads on gimbal mode
Very well done as usual!
Thanks :)
That does look amazingly peaceful. I've only just started trying the mining loop which is also very satisfying. Only a small suggestion for future videos would be to include where to sell salvage at the different planets/stations.
Keep up the good work.
Oh, I hadn't really thought about selling salvage, I always just go back to one of the main cities!
@@Farrister That's what I mean - I have no clue about this game having only played it for a month, so I don't know all the places to sell different things or how. For example: Mining you can sell raw materials at Admin offices but where do you find the Admin offices. I understand you can't go into infinitesimal detail obviously but if you sell something at specific locations it would be helpful for a noob to know :)
I just picked up a Vulture and urs is a lot better video than others and I thank you.
Ah, thank you :)
Not sure how I missed your review but watching it now because I am looking to adding the Vulture it to my fleet. Thanks Farrister for the ship review. o7 😎👍
o7
Yes please may we have another😊
More!
I love these more relaxing videos. Good stuff
Currently enjoying the vid!
You can press boost (shift) while holding X to break, and break even faster.
Love the vibes in the vid, and I'm also really enjoying salvaging. Thanks again!
X "Braking" is on by default as soon as you stop thrusting.
It’s worth checking that it is enabled by default as I’ve know it to reset before after patches and updates.
Yes I have it bound to throttle, but it only 'supercharges' where you have thrusters pointed, so for most ships (including Vulture), it may not be enough :(
I think the option is called "space brake uses boost" in the general tab.
Keep up the good work Farrister!
Thanks!
i love your ship reviews but i also definately enjoy the gameplay loop videos as well
Good to know!
Thanks a lot, very useful
Awesome video, thank you
My pleasure!
Great Vid BTW and I do enjoy your reviews of ships :)
I had a Vulture for a while..It is a nice ship but it is only a stop to my CCU chain for a Reclaimer. Even though the Vulture has a few bugs I really wish the Cargo was longer itself to hold more (yes I know it can hold more than the 12SCU) cause when you do mission you can take the weapons off and..sometimes there just isnt that much room. Also be nice to have the WHOLE bottom of the cargo bay as a grid in my opinion.
Thanks :) and yeah, I enjoyed the Vulture, looking forward to an in game price!
I was waiting!! j/k You always do these types of videos very well. I enjoy them!! :D ... and I don't know for sure, but I always stop the beam when the box is being ejected. I did some testing in PTU and it appeard that anything you salvaged when the box was being ejected was lost. I haven't tested this in LIVE.
Ah, I'm not crazy then!
Great content, thank you! I'd like to see some salvaging on the Reclaimer. Solo and crewed.
Yes. Do you know what's the difference between the "Reclaimer" and the "Reclaimer Best In Show Edition" models?
@@AndrewJens Just the paint. No special functionality. It is a nice (and rare) paint job.
@@sabatheus Okay; thanks.
Noted!
As one would expect for a Farrister video this was amazing!
Thank you :)
Press G to engage gimbal mode and it goes so much smoother.
Doesn't work for me, I think because of a combination of how my keybinds are set up along with head tracking. I think right at the start you can see with it on, and then when I disable it.
I love the Salvage gameplay. If I have the time, I'll claim a Hammerhead for 50k. Take the Cutty & load up any cargo & all 24 guns. The guns normally sell for 2k a piece so you've pretty much paid for the claim, just on guns (48k). The cargo is random but I've easily made another 10k on that. Then grab the Vulture to scrape. I only use the Cinch beam & normally get another 150k minimum for the salvage. Definitely use the salvage head in gimble mode with mouse & don't start scraping again after the ejection until it shows "0.0 / 1.0 SCU". The job normally takes a couple of hours. Nice chill time 🙂
I did exactly this but with a Starfarer on Sunday :)
Great video. Thanks. Would have been almost perfect if you had mentioned the keypresses - There doesn't seem to be a tutorial that says Salvagers use the Mining key (M) and that you switch between types with a right mouse click. G key for Gimbal also helps a lot.
Ah OK - didn't intend for this to be a tutorial, but maybe I should do that!
Definitely helped me do my first salvage run! Thanks!! @@Farrister
Little tip to slow down faster - When you move your cruise control down Boost at the same time - It will slow your ship down faster...
Should work on all ships....
Good note :)
I think I know why you find it somewhat relaxing. I currently play Elite Dangerous (I'll be upgrading my system to play Star Citizen in a few weeks - money), and I've heard people say they do laser surface mining for the same reason - the technique is very similar.
I'm big on surface mining, and yeah, it's pretty chilled out!
You mentioned how you need a Multi-tool and the tractor beam attachment.. nice part of salvage ship is that you can MAKE one with the salvage unit if you don't have it, but then will need to refill box to full before it will eject.. ;) hehehe
Yup! But if you spend a box each time to make a new one, that's quite expensive :D
@@Farrister confused as to where the "expensive" part is.. it's from salvage you are gathering.. there IS no cost.. there is a bit more time gathering it, but that is negligible.. and someone would have to refresh me on amount needed as it's been a while since i tried it, but does it take the entire SCU of salvage to make one? Even if it does still does not make it a bad thing, because again, It Costs Nothing but time spent.. ;) If you are doing it every time you go out though, something else is wrong with you since once made, you keep it till you do something to get rid of it (or a wipe, but that resets everything so not applicable)... ;)
@@khandragon7950 there is a cost, in missed earnings, and efficiency for paying for salvage claim too!! But yes, nice feature that you can make your own tools :)
This thing is good for bunkers and general daily use too, can fit an STV or a Mule comfortably in the back
For bunkers?
An ASMR moment. One comment on the tractor beam, use the mouse wheel to move the item towards or away from you.
Good tip!
Really not happy with the CIG push for manual cargo handling, but im griping, i don't do any grind in SC. Have the Valkyrie, upgraded from a Corsair, very immersive ship, great to fly. Great content as usual
Yeah, I'm interested to see what happens next with cargo
I hadn't spent money on star citizen since I bought my two starter ships in 2013. I changed one of those for the vulture. It's a perfect game loop
Nice!
Salvaging mood = pressure washing mood.
Haha totally
As always love your vids, everything is so smooth not like on my dieing laptop. I was wondering how many fps you're usually have? I've learnt to play in like 15 fps ^^'
It looks like lasers in gimbaled mode are not responding to your mouse movements like they should, i think i've had simillar problem and hitting Z for free look helped when in gimbaled mode.
Ah worth a try, I'll give it a go, thanks! And with this version, anywhere from 40 to 80 FPS, usually depending on server
Always check the Cargo Space or scan the wreck, the cargo can be quite nice, in some illegal wrecks I had tons of expensive drugs.
Ah I don't usually bother because as you say, mostly it seems to be illegal cargo, which I avoid. But for those who don't mind, another lucrative source of goods!
@@Farrister welllllll if it is there, somebody needs to take care of the correct disposal, not that children find the stuff ... :D
Thanks for the video, i just bought one.
Oh wow! I'm waiting for an in-game purchase :)
@@Farrister i sadly spend already to much money on the game. So i melt my ships to try out.
if you stop around 0.95 the laggy servers will usually fill the rest of the box up.
interesting to see you don't use gimbal mode for the scrappers. Just wish the lights were better on this ship. However, with the vulture I've found my single seater industrial career calling. This ship will find a permanent home in my hangar
Good tip! I tried the gimbal mode but the mouse wasn't moving it, something to do with my control setup I think.
I love that they modeled it after today's combine harvesters
Oh yeah, it does have that kind of look to it!
I haven’t played it yet I have to upgrade my pc to be able to run it. I have been hoping to find king scavenger videos of people either just scavenging or roleplaying but most are just on how to actually scavenge. If you can can you make some more videos for people like me that just want to watch people scavenging. Hope you have a good day mate!!
I still prefer the panel/abandoned ship salvaging to the contracts. A little to much weapons/cargo pulling vs the haul scrapping and that is what I like about the ship. I still wish I didn't have to get up as often.
Is the panels still in the game? Have not found a single one since 3.19
@LokesProduction They are. It just takes a fair bit of work to find them. They spawn in the same spot, so once you map them you can keep going back.
Fair enough!
pressing g after the scapers are out let you gimble them letting the ship sit still and you can mouse over the bits better.
Have you heard anything he said in the video?😂
Some ships also have valuable cargo in their hold too
Yes :)
Spacebrake works wonders on slwing down the vulture
I don't have a miner ship nor a salvage, the play loop does seem very relaxing. Maybe I need to upgrade my Kore? I love my Kore though....
Oops. Forgot to get that gun that moves boxes lol..
You can craft them at the salvage terminal in the Vulture!
@@Farrister What! Ah what a time saver.. Thanks!
11:05 how could this be "offensive"? thank you for your work, your insight and btw have you ever been asked "would you like to be a narrator?"
I prefer unlocking the salvage heads with G because then I don't waste as much HYD.
Yeah, something about my keybinds just meant that wasn't working properly for me :(
how do you turn on the 'munchers'?
M for mining mode, then left click :)
I move the whole ship as well. I think it is because I use a joystick to fly.
Ah maybe that's what it is for us then!
Love the walkthrough. I want to try out salvaging with a Vulture this week. I absolutely disagree with you that it's worth taking the weapons while salvaging though. If you are salvaging in a Vulture, it is a waste of time and space to take the weapons. I've never found S1 weapons (yet). S2 weapons sell for around 700 aUEC. S3 weapons sell for about 1.1k aUEC. S4 sell for around 1.7 aUEC. S5s jump up to around 5.1k aUEC. But... that's garbage. A single P4-AR sells for 1k aUEC. The 9Tails leather vests both sell for around 2.4k aUEC. And weapons take up a ridiculous amount of space. A *single* S2 badger takes up 2-4 SCU. A *single* S3 Panther takes up 3-6 SCU. And a *single* S4 Rhino takes up 4-8 SCU. Compared to RMC? They're not worth it. And the only reason to loot them is to sell them, they might as well not be salvageable. They're just garbage. And that's if they were *easy* to sell. But they're not. You can only sell weapons to the shops that sell them. Good luck finding one planet with all those different weapons for sale. And it's the same for cargo. You loot the cargo from a salvage ship and you'll have 1-2 SCU of 3+ different cargos, *none* of which can be sold at the same terminals, so you're stuck with that garbage in your ship while you drive all over Stanton selling 1SCU at a time. So very not worth it. I've been so turned off by salvaging *without* a Vulture, that I haven't even taken it out yet to see how it goes *with* it.
Great notes, thanks!
Hit G to gimbal your lasers, WAY easier!
Salvaging is satisfaction ❤ don't forget to press g for gimbal mode
Wasn't working well for me with my control set, so found it easier to fix in the end :(
Yea if you press g you can activate gimball. And dont have to move the whole ship to scrap
I think I mentioned in the commentary, it doesn't work for me. It unlocks the arms but the arms don't move. Think it's to do with how I've had to unbind some mouse controls for cinematography.
I do really like these gameplay videos, but the "real time" aspect, even though it is admittedly their main differential to the other hundreds out there, makes them too long for me to want to watch in full.
If I had to say what my favourite kind of video in the channel is, it's ship reviews.
My least favourite would be the ones that are just pure speculation on future Star Citizen subjects/mechanics.
I hope this feedback helps! Keep up the great work!
Noted, and thanks! I'm finding it more challenging to schedule things in to cater for everybody now, so I'm just trying to put a mix of things up. Ship reviews are still happening :)
What happens if you start to "salvage" a live ship (e.g. one that another player is currently using)? 😁
Questions get asked, enforcement gets called, thank you for your prison service xD
@@Farrister But does it do a bit of noticeable damage to the other ship before they haul you away?
In future, will the rest of the ship be salvagable? Or is it only the outside layer of materials?
This is just “Hull Scraping”, in future we will get “Hull Munching” which will allow salvage ships to chew through and recycle the carcass of what is left after hull scraping. They are also going to implement manufacture/ship specific materials, for example, Crusader ships being made with higher grade aluminium than Drake ships meaning you might be able to successfully recycle a higher percentage of the ship, or Origin ships or Constellation Phoenix for example having more quantities of expensive materials like tungsten, and all of the gold decorative inlays etc
@@JmaK17 thanks for clearing that up. Sounds exciting
I think that's the plan!
only thing its missing is a yellow flashing roof light
Haha and some sort of beeping
I just started mining with the prospector I’m half tempted to try out salvaging it’s only a five dollar upgrade with WB. Do you think it’s more lucrative than mining? Tough choices I tell ya haha
Great video!
Hey Steven, in a Vulture salvaging in the Halo i can completely fill the Cargo grid and get another 6 boxes in the Aisle. This brings in around 170k for just under an hours work if you find a wreck in the Halo quickly which tbh I usually do. I set engines on full go decoupled and wait to see a salvage marker. With Mining its tough especially in the prospector, you have to get lucky to find top tier ores that you can break. However when I use the prospector, I drop down to a planet surface and mine any second tier ores that I find over 45% (This tends to give breaks of 100% of what you want more often) This can bring in roughly 70k per trip REFINED. If you get lucky you could do 2 trips per hour. The advantage mining has over Salvage is the chance you could always find that valuable rock and boost your hourly way above the Vulture, however on an average level, I would say the vulture is better, as you do not need to refine and then deliver, you just deliver.
Its definitely more consistent earnings wise, though doesn't have the higher reward that mining can sometimes bring. If you look for panels in any of the asteroid fields and salvage those, you can easily make 200k an hour. Just don't do the salvage contracts as they don't give too much scrap from the hull.
@@Sharps777 thank you for that break down. I see the vulture is still warbond so I was going to test it out today but wasn’t going to stress it as I do enjoy mining. As of late I add about 10 min to each trip but make sure it’s 100% tier 2 and 3 which brings my 4 trips just under an hour in a half, then I load up my msr and make between 275-310k in profit. But… the heads and modules have been an expense as well as the repairs that have been in the 20,000 range pending flight, I’ve gotten better but this seems to be something I’d enjoy just as much as mining. I’ll probably work up to owning both but wanted to choose one.
@@logers2343 thanks for the advice! One thing I find that could make it lucrative, is having someone else with you in a cargo ship. I have an msr and can see that being pretty fun to trade off salvaging and all that. I know I feel like I have limited time to save a few bucks on the vulture right now coming from the prospector, but I’ve only just started mining with it.
I prefer mining personally, but salvage can still be profitable too.
Its nice from time to time to make a salvaging trip on a vulture, but it gets old quite fast. The profit is not amazing, given the time it takes to consume a single wreck and the number of boxes it produces. I think the reclaimer is the way to go if you want to make a real profit.
I've owned a vulture since... forever, possibly the third ship I bought in 3.10, when the ship concept become available, but I'm planning to CCU it to something else. I want to see how much will cost a Vulture in game and then get rid of mine.
It's fun though. Part of it all for me is finding stuff I enjoy doing, even if it's not "min max most profitable meta"
Newly get to play rather then lurk with new comp. Trying to decide how to make some cash. Bounties are very risky as a noob still. Thinking about this or mining. Thought about renting the ROC and taking a spirit or MSR or the corsair. then keep thinking just getting the minding ship would probably save time and energy. but not sure i want to spend my days in such an ugly ship lol. uuuug what to do. this looks cool though. I thought you could also pulverize the frame for more recourses no?
I wish i could salvage...but i got the salvage head bug today and so my Vulture is useless.
ooof :(
Crewing in the vulture isnt worth it in my expierence with how small the cargo hold is.
But they need to make it available for in game money... irl price feels too much for what it does atm😢
Yeah, agreed
Definitely turn off the lasers while the filler station is ejecting. Any salvage you get while that is busy is lost.
Good to know :)
Noticed you didn't store your ship just left it in the hanger, I thought you had to store to be abke to sell
Don't have to store. It's often a security thing - once it's stored, it's a bit more 'safe'. But because terminals have been slow lately, I kinda just left it for the next run
40 Odd thousand profit from a short run with still 4 scu to go is good in my opinion
Eh, Ive learned I don't like salvaging. Not because there is anything wrong with salvaging itself, but because if the 30k doesnt get you, the exploding hangar doors will.
I've been lucky on the hangar front, so far...
the Salvage missions have been a complete disaster for me. Every time I take a larger one (50k+) the server crashes and I lose the salvage, the mission, and my investment.
Oh, I haven't experienced that, but can see how it would be frustrating!
There are no armatures in SC - only professionals that does not have experience YET. You cant fit 25 SCU of cargo in vulture - 22 easy - and this what people do after seeing it once. Everything was fine until you did arrive to Lorville. Why owww why you didn't stored your ship i cant get. It is like parking paralel on disabled space - do not do it people. Landing space can assign you hangar to other person and if he/she will be landing with something big it can squeeze your ship in to "UNKONOW" status and after reaching terminal you will sell NOTHING.
Ah good notes - I was headed back out after this run so was taking my chances!
I like the music. But dont phase it in and out as you start talking. Would rather you keep it playing albeit at a lower and steady volume.
Ooooh interesting - I thought the ducking helped! Thanks :)
Do you know Powerwash simulator? It's just like the name says! you go on powerwashing dirty away. plus upgrades and job progression, also good sense of humor. Salvaging looks just like that and it gives me a zen like peace of mind and acomplishment: I know EXACTLY why you find that so satisfying!
Also sick Quantum Drive, which one is it? It's crazy fast, almost 12 times as fast!
Haha that's the Goliath X12 version :D
@@Farrister Amazing, fastest Junker on this side of the galaxy! 🤘
The idea that a single player ship needs 2 people for moving boxes is beyond frustrating.
I guess if you like the gameplay, it will be OK. The time it took to get 40k was not worth the time spent. Mining is similar unless you only go for Quant.
You can do a minor or moderate bunker and make 65 to 80k plus loot. Sniper rifles are about 2k each. There are more exciting ways to make $$.
Agree, although 1) I wasn't min maxing for profits - people that do would strip the weapons and probably grab the cargo; and 2) this was not one of the biggest wrecks, the Vulture was not filled from this one :)
No joke. The Vulture looks just like the Venture from EVE. CIG better prepare for a lawsuit. Unless CCP decides to be cool about it.
Eeep!
Need different music. Watching this cured my insomnia
Oh no, I like the music!
Too bad you can't actually get one though.
Not yet :(
Please stop apologizing to possibly offend someone because you play the different then they do. Bottom line, you will never please anyone and the extreme small percentage of people who do complain is so insignificant that losing them as a sub is no loss. People watch your stream to watch you play. If they do not like it or see no value in what you do then they will just move on but not before trolling you page with a complaint. So just ignore them.
I think I'm just trying to be well mannered!
Its not well mannered to be submissive. Manners and submissive behavior are 2 different animals.
Going to be honest, would be better without music for the most part
Noted!
Tell me you're a sociopath without saying you're a sociopath.

This game is f..ked
:(
Sure wish I could even play the game as intended right now. Total ASOP shutdown over the server. Fun.
Yeah, I had problems this week too :(
I can see the streamer servers are working because us mere mortals can't get anything to work in game right now.
Haha, I get no special anything, just a lot of time continually trying
