Newbie guide to Eve Online ninja salvaging

[DamnDrtyVagrant]

i was tryin to fit a catalyst to do this but you cant put a expanded probe launcher on cuz the cpu is to low

[DamnDrtyVagrant]

@DamnDrtyVagrant oh nevermind lol

[invoker69]

sweet, im a newbie at this game and am wondering how to make some decent isk, am doing lvl2 missions now but the pay is just pathetic, gonna try to skill my salvaging so i can try to make some decent isk and no longer have to waste my friend's :p

[Thedarksnw]

@invoker69 You won't go back :).

[peter1765]

love it o.o ... love it!!!!!

[Ixlshefchetolxl]

Hey can you tell me how can i find a map with players doing 3-4 lvl missions on it ? And can i really farm enough ISK to buy PLEX for 14 days ?

[kalamari13]

Are there any additional skills that can increase scanning accuracy aside from the ones listed in the video?

[alexveeuk]

I'd say it's an okay technique but tbh it's not as fast as me actually doing a lve 4 mission I get me like 20 mill a mission on average by if ur a newbie why not

[alexveeuk]

Lol blew up about 50 ninja salvagers just sooo funny the way they take loot and then okay open fire boom thanks gonna salvage your ship

[SebastianLaFleur]

Very good guide :) Might try this next time I get bored doing other stuff in EVE. Good song too :)

[hummer4200]

thank you just made 25 mil...

[Thedarksnw]

@hummer4200 Congrats :). Imagine you would have to farm that much doing lvl 1-2 missions ;P.

[hummer4200]

@Thedarksnw i now have around 55 mill... this method is pretty good. what are your favorite areas?

[Sgtcheesecake1]

@hummer4200 how long did it take?

[hummer4200]

how c an you tell the population of a solar system

[hummer4200]

Good song... From Ghost in a shell.

[hummer4200]

hi, i jus got eve 3 days ago. and i have never scavenged yet. i was wondering... if you steal a loot is that bad?

[EyeOnTheTV]

@hummer4200 Taking loot from a wreck is a criminal act. Salvaging the wreck is not. The player population of a system can be found by looking at the number next to "local" in the chat window.

[Thedarksnw]

[quickpwned]

Song?

[vincentvalashu]

I am thinking about starting EvE-Online as an Amarr(love the ship design) do you have any invites left or any advise for systems i should poke around?

[willeystyle]

Ghost in the shell FTW

[Celeodor]

Thank you very much for this. I am starting on in Eve and this is great. I'm more than happy to make people cry as well.

[Thedarksnw]

@Celeodor That's the spirit :).

[Celeodor]

@Thedarksnw I actually bought the launcher and some probes today (skill-wise I already meet the pre-reqs), but haven't had more than 45 minutes to devote to this technique. Looking forward to making some money. =)

[Celeodor]

@Thedarksnw When you do this, how hard is it to find a ship doing missions that is leaving behind wrecks? Is it common / rare / lucky?

[Celeodor]

@Thedarksnw Just pulled in a million isk from a run. Thanks again for the guide!

[Thedarksnw]

@Celeodor Any notable run?

[Celeodor]

@Thedarksnw Pulled in a 4-mil isk run last week. :D

[99Coutris]

Hey, I'm having some trouble, wondering if you were still on EVE to give me some tips? Thanks alot.

[Thedarksnw]

@99Coutris Easier to reach me on youtube.

[99Coutris]

@Thedarksnw Okay, do you know any good areas to do this near the Gallente starter area (Couster)

[Thedarksnw]

@99Coutris Try Dodixie.

[TheSturdyWall]

@Thedarksnw I'm Currently stationed at Sisters of Eve, I have 1.1 million SP, will my Catalyst suffice for the Salvager? Oh, and when I get the money, how about a noctis?

[Thedarksnw]

@TheSturdyWall It should, I would not recommend Noctis since it's more expensive (and there are allways chances you will lose your salvager ship) and tractor beams are useless.

[TheSturdyWall]

@Thedarksnw Whats the name of the song XD

[99Coutris]

Quick question, I currently have a Catalyst, can i do this with that or must I use the frigate?

[Thedarksnw]

@99Coutris You can, problem with a destroyer is you get too many high slots and ship takes much more damge then a frigate.

[99Coutris]

@Thedarksnw So, you can do it with a destroyer, but basically you wanna go with the frigate, thanks alot. :)

[razor1493]

Can't find the that song remix, any link???

[Thedarksnw]

@razor1493 sanderland mix

[Erdbere]

nice vedio but...... the music is nicer ;)

[Thedarksnw]

@Erdbere Sure it is and thanks :).

[mradelslayer]

hello im new, do u know where there is alot of players in solar system around starting point of noob area at amarr.

[eacey]

err 25 mil

[eacey]

first night i did ninja salvaging with just the bare min of ship and what not, I stumbled on a whole field of wrecks, and took in over 250mil.

[TheFestra]

The song Is from Ghost in a shell isnt it!

[Urban202]

can this also be done with only using the ship you use as salvager ?

or aren't probes working with that one ( i got the same but can't acces ingame atm)

[Alexc3217]

Tried it in Isikemi... got 24.5 mill from just one missioner.

He was not happy :D

[igoogbox]

Good video. Thanks for this guide.

[r41m15]

At first, i was like "lol, i can make more money in less time", but then i was like "lol fail, i have BC and doing lvl 3 missions >.>"

This is indeed a good way for beginners to make moneh

[l33tsht]

...how much money did u make on this video....? lol, obvious question

[Thedarksnw]

@l33tsht I think about 10-25m.

[FecketJ]

What exact items do you have fitted on your destroyer?

[Thedarksnw]

@FecketJ Fit # G47Z

[Bournesax]

so out of all of these skills u should have salvaging lvl 5 first right ? to increase the profit

[Thedarksnw]

@Bournesax Or if you are NSing in a contested system you can focus on scanning skills.

[tomaseterial]

Что за трек играет?

[Thedarksnw]

@tomaseterial Саундтрэк к Bionic Commando: Rearmed

[skynetswing]

i can't ... i wasted 2 hours and found a lot of ships but when i get to 1.0 AU they disappear ... doh

[djgizmoe]

Good video. Me and my evil alt thank you for the advice.

[Thedarksnw]

@djgizmoe *bows* :)

[yuffiek133]

Gotta love Ghost in the Shell. :)

[goodtimes7alx]

thanks for video but you didnt explain anything. one minute you're in one ship, next nimute you're in an other. what did you do???

[Thedarksnw]

@goodtimes7alx I just run Shiphax software and it does all the hard work.

[THENICEGU]

@saleem8171 ok i would like the money

[Mouldywart]

If anyone wants a 21 day trail for Eve, send me a message and I will send you one. If you choose to buy a month afterwards, I get a free month xD

[bzandstra]

dat crazy probe setup made me wtf like a little schoolgirl. also... how did i get here? i was watching demopan singing about 8 minutes ago :S

[ronaldo70003]

thanks allot men you realy helped me

[knurlykneed]

It really works. Can flippers can be confused: Continuously jettisoning 1 unit of Velspar to leave behind garbage cans (dang appropriate name) , while mining for your own full shipboard load of any ore, has proven to be a nice payback for can flipper rats as evidenced by the grape vine and personal observation and chat channels.

[Turok456789]

This game looks properly cool.

Is it possible to earn enough ISK in game to pay for your subscription fee by buying time cards with ISK?

[peteheatb3]

@Turok456789 yup. Though it might take a couple months to be able to do that-it also depends on what you do. If you mine, be prepared to do a shit ton of it, especially in high sec but its still possible to earn your monthly with it. Just make sure that you take risks in the game-its where thefun is. Playing it safe because your afraid to lose your ship will make you burn out on the game-everyone loses ships in the beginning to stupid things, but its the best way to learn.

[Esebastiaan]

You want to try this marvelous game but you think the 14 day trial is not enough?

You want to have a headstart ingame and not worry about the ISK??

Send me a message and i will send you a 21 day invite and a 100 million ISK bonus when you decide to activate your trial account.

[xxleg3ndxx1]

im gonna try this currently skilling up for the requirments

[MadmanDKDK]

Might work for the first month or so, any decent player in missions would be able to make the same amount of money in a frigate doing l1 missions, I know 'cos I just did on a new Caldari character.

[Thedarksnw]

@MadmanDKDK I know you can't cause I did so much grind with npc corporations from lvl 1. Unless off course you can run about 20 missions per hour...

[kudo43]

Pretty neat. Going to give it a try. Thanks.



[cdmar33]

Why would they lose their ship after blasting you?

[kudo43]

@cdmar33 In Hisec space, pvp is unallowed. The NPC group concord will (probably) destroy their ship before they can escape. Since their ship is worth a lot more than yours, it's unlikely they'll want to pick a fight.

[Assasin457]

does anyone know the name for this song?

[Brendan1246]

this is one way of making easy isk. Another is going the extra step and stealing the loot, because if you can back up with pvp skills, you can end up salvaging the carebears ship ;)

[Sampyla20plus]

@Brendan1246 You know true carebears are those who constantly kill miners / industrials only because they just cant kill anything that might have guns fitted :P I've seen brave pirates doing awww station hugging IF the I have a ship that has more than 1 guns fitted.... Carebear = a proper highsec pirate (WnB)

[Brendan1246]

@Sampyla20plus Sorry that carebear tears taste so good. I usually ransom mission runners so I can make isk that way to help me fit fleet ships for myself and corp mates.

[Sampyla20plus]

@Brendan1246 awww so you're admitting taht you dont have balls to have an actual fight in eve, and call yourself as pvp'er ? hilarious

[Brendan1246]

@Sampyla20plus bad troll is bad.

[CrimsonDivine]

Meh, tried this, takes too damn long, took me over 2 hours and all I found was upto 20% and the signal was lost after a while, this isn't that profitable if you ask me

[walmartian]

@CrimsonDivine its enough to keep someone flying frigates and cruisers, its not for profit its just funner than mining and alot of stuff can happen besides salvage, like you find someones abandoned orca, ransom there mission item as a contract, or sometimes you die.. u need co ops frig 3, sister probes and astro pinpointing 3 and your scans will be about 90 seconds to scan a BS, and hate mail is always exciting to get

[kalamari13]

If I warp to a dude in the middle of fighting a ton of rats, with some still alive, will they maybe attack me? or will they only attack me if the other guy warps out? or is it both?

[Rawr5649]

@kalamari13 3:30 read...

[usaruler4567]

Omg man imma go do some NINJA SALVAGING, maybe buy a cloak for 0.0 space :D

[fallonsky12]

I FKING LOVE THIS SONE .

also did you gys know this song is also somewhat in russian there for i can understand it :D

[halodude347]

Can i have a trial please if you have any?

[fuzzydragon]

I get so many easy ganks on ninjas running a lvl4 waiting to get scanned down ninja enters I exit only to return in a cloaky pilgram/rapier and wait for greed to flag my prey :)

[Paracaz]

Lol easier to join up a 0.0 corp.. who have boosted hubs for ratting and safe local.. can make around 100m/h atleast.

[111BLACKLIGHTNING111]

so how do you earn subscription? it said something like that in the game description. im on a trial period right now, and Im barely into basic combat. I chose gallente, military school. I heard buisiness was the hardest but most rewarding class.

[fuzzydragon]

@111BLACKLIGHTNING111 its probly well out of your range being so new but you can buy a month of game time in the game called plex, they run about 320-350 million isk fairly simple to make if you live in 0.0 or even run lvl 4 missions beyond that there are game time codes that are auctioned on the eve forums and if I remember correctly these are for 3 months of game time and are worth a lot more.

[Thedarksnw]

@111BLACKLIGHTNING111 I'd say you either grind plexes for a while (might earn enough in a day), ninja salvage (takes about 30 hours average) or hunt in 0.0 space (10-30 hours of leeching with proper help). These are easiest ways to farm enough on a trial. Others include different ninja salvaging, suiciding, various trading activities, anomaly grinding etc.

[MatsudairaTakuma]

I was wondering, how do you set your combat probes to only scan certain types of ships? I can't find a way and find myself tracking down bastard Cruisers all the time

[MeneerSpaghetti]

Oh man! I've been trying to do this without succes! I'm not sure what Im doing wrong. I track down non-combat sites with the greatest of ease. Tracking a ship however -.- horrid!

[istherenologic]

Can anyone confirm this is still a good way of making money? (if risky)

Oh and how is a new player supposed to know where people do level 3-4 missions??

Anyone got any recomendations for what to use for gallentes salvaging ship?

Thanks in advance to anyone kind enough to reply.

[Thedarksnw]

@istherenologic I can confirm it rocks moneywise and riskfree considering the experience and isk/hour you will be getting as a new player.

Search for "Navy" corporations like Amarr Navy etc and find a high-sec lvl 4 highest quality missions.

Use stuff with most high slots for salvaging i.e destroyer.

[JamaicanMan18]

@Thedarksnw riskfree until you steal loot

[weirdwei137]

Can anyone give me a 21day trial please ?

[Mavrick6231]

@weirdwei137 pm me your email

[mnoRebel]

Can anyone suggest a good system to go salvage?

[rwst9]

You could make four times as much by reprocessing smaller stuff (not the rare goodies ;) and not selling to market. In fact, you can open a niche market by placing buy orders for small loot, collecting them and reprocessing...

[Thedarksnw]

@rwst9 Pretty big loss w/o huge investment in refining line up to Scrapmetal Processing, owning a POS or having proper standings.

[epiphanyofreason8]

wheres the part when i jump in a cheap high dps ship and kill a thieving noob when hes a douche about ninja slavaging my loot? lol

[HateCoreist]

@epiphanyofreason8 Probably right before the part where you get blown up by concord, and the guy comes back two weeks later and drops you again while laughing at your attempts.

[Thedarksnw]

@HateCoreist He comes few minutes later to loot and salvage both wrecks. That is if you actually manage to suicide him which is hard.

[trungthanh1288]

Will it have enough ISK for PLEX ?

[anspaughnato]

If anyone wants a 21-day free trial, send me a message.

[MIDNAq1LINK]

Anyone have 21 day trial I can use? :)

[Thedarksnw]

@MIDNAq1LINK PM me with your email.

[cheesypiees]

Hey how do you get your map in grids like that?

My maps are just the standard maps and show the solar system.

[Thedarksnw]

@cheesypiees Hi. Afaik F10 and set it to system view (or F11 lol). Haven't played for a while. You can see constellation/system maps to the right if you move cursor.

[MediTateMind]

Now tell me what is that awesome song you got in this vid.

[Thedarksnw]

@MediTateMind Origa - Inner Universe

[exiil2]

@Thedarksnw Ghost in The Shell theme song :D

[Thedarksnw]

Here we can see stubborn PVE grinders prove my point of view that they suck at playing and have no clue about EvE. You can decide if you want to spend 3-6+++ months having most boring gameplay possible to become one of them or to start playing proper game on your second month. By proper I mean stuff that is totally above carebear routine.

[shoesfx]

@PR0FFIN ye i asked my corp about smartbombs and they told me not to use them, coze i can accidentally hit a ninja and he can kill me after taking aggro. The only way to avoid them is by destroying your wrecks so eventually they will get bored and leave.

[fuduzan5562]

Step one: Be a total faggot. I don't mean homosexual, I mean a faggot. Know the difference.

Step two: Engage in faggot activities like scanning

Step three: ???

Step four: Pitiful profit

Step five: Get wardecced

Step six: Regret your faggotry.

[jamescougar1]

@fuduzan5562 - you probably got upset when someone took your wrecks right, else you would not have been so goddamn stupid on your answer. Typical carebear answer, go cry somewhere else.

Ninja salvage for the win!

[fuduzan5562]

@jamescougar1 You apparently didn't read the last two steps. I like to hunt them and crush their little corps, forcing them to turtle in newbie corps. I'm not a big fan of carebearing myself, but I respect those who do, because they don't fuck up game dynamics.

[tarun12]

can you link your probe and salvager setup in battleclinic? New to the game, gonna try this out. Im minmatar though.

[Thedarksnw]

@tarun12 ship Probe: expanded probe launcher (combat probes), scan strength rigs.

ship Thrasher: 4 Salvagers.

Rest modules are optional. Cruiser/frig size AB, speed and inertia modules, capacitor power or some minor tanking. There is no UBERFIT #2323 in Eve. It's about making your ship do what you like.

[Thedarksnw]

@tarun12 So first thing you should do after starting with Eve is downloading EveMon and EFT.

[LastCallAgain]

How did u move the target selector and main controls interface to the bottom left?

[Thedarksnw]

@LastCallAgain drag and drop

[shoesfx]

2nd day on eve did lots of fighting missions now i'm on mining a little but i have no idea what you are doing there. the salvage you can obtain it from a mission aswell right?

[Thedarksnw]

@shoesfx right

[Wrecless1985]

NOOB VIDEO FOR AND RETARDED PEOPLE! PERFECT!

[Thedarksnw]

@Wrecless1985 O K I TOTALLY AGREE THANKS A LOT BYE

[SOMERANDOMGUYDOZ]

Or you just get a good miner, buy a battle cruiser from the money you get from mining like crazy, then start shooting every player you see xD

[Thedarksnw]

@SOMERANDOMGUYDOZ Just stick with shooting asteroids ^_^ so much fun.

[liarliar242]

selling to buyers on station,, filling my wallet,, good lad,,, good lad :D

[Crusted93]

Very helpful for a new to the game as me. Keep it up. thanks

[merobots]

NEWBIE GUIDE!?!?! That looked impossible and confusing!

[CabelnetOAwesome]

@merobots You don't play EVE I take it. :P

[Thedarksnw]

@CabelnetOAwesome It was supposed to help people that haven't tried it yet hehe. Well I'm working on it, answering stuff I haven't covered in guide.

[CabelnetOAwesome]

@Thedarksnw Well I found it very helpful. :) Keep it up.

[GlitchMasterSonic]

lol you should get a covert ops and put on the covert ops cloak and go cloaky while you warp in and uncloak and salvage a few then cloak, and so-on, that would so piss them off :D

[Thedarksnw]

@GlitchMasterSonic Making your gameplay more fun is totally up to you. Gotta love EvE ;p.

(I wouldn't get pissed at such guy)

[speedphreak831]

awesome vid man. well explained. but you shouldnt need to worry about aggro from a player if ur just salvaging. loot stealing will flag you , but salvaging wont. still, the destros a good idea if ur looking to take a few rats on your own. NICE WORK!

[ImSoMalicious]

Nice video. Very useful and informative. thank you!

[Thedarksnw]

@ImSoMalicious Thanks for watching, glad you liked it :).

[CommanderSyler]

for al that skils it gonna make time

[Thedarksnw]

@CommanderSyler A day or so to get started.

[dracon56]

@Thedarksnw lol How do you expect anyone to pay for all those skillbooks and an astrometic ship? If they were new? How much would it cost?

[Thedarksnw]

@dracon56 lol do a trial and get about 5kk ISK, enough for a dozen of ships. Or get money if you start with 21 day trial I send.

[Tekwarthewolf]

@dracon56 None of that stuff is expensive and a large amount of it is handed to you if you do the tutorials

[felcas]

Guys I don´t know if I am a bit off here, but I used to play eve like 1 year ago and I remember that when someone steal from wreak or container they get flaged and people the person who got stoled could kill him in 15 minutes windows. Is this not valid anymore?

[Thedarksnw]

@felcas You still get pvp enabled against the owner of wreck if you take something. Salvaging does not flag you.

[DrgnWyvern]

@felcas salvage doesn't flag as theft just taking from the wrecks, think of it as cleaning up at a mission without having to worry bout players being hostile. (There is the small chance they will shoot you but they most likely will lose there ship

[Thedarksnw]

@DrgnWyvern And you won't, keep in mind battleships have hard time killing a frigate without drones.

[NorwegianMetalFan]

i just started playing today, and this guide is way beond me xD

[johnathanakr]

@NorwegianMetalFan Keep at it m8, it will make sense in a few days. Eve has a fairly steep learning curve.

[willsparkes]

@johnathanakr fairly? :P ITS MASSIVE! :O well most of it stumped me atleast

[johnathanakr]

@willsparkes I have been playing this game for 5 years and there is still allot of it i have not even tried to look at.

[Thedarksnw]

For those who wonder if it still works. Ran couple of test scans and flights into someone else's missions. Works well.

[Frosty301289]

thank you for this, i started eve a few days ago again (almost away for two years, so much has changed!) created a new char because my old was junk and found this pretty fun^^

[liarliar242]

along comes the noctis and fucks there game plan up, i bet i can tractor,loot and salvage faster than any ninja can get to the wrecks, and hey if mr ninja manages to get 1, maybe 2 wrecks,well done,lets face it, scanning down for 10 to 30 minutes and only getting 1 or 2 wrecks, who's the idiot ?

most mission runners use an alt now so keep the combat ship there while you salvage in your noctis, lock and pop any wrecks the ninja heads towards, they soon go away. ninja tears so sweet so tasty :D

[Thedarksnw]

@liarliar242 Thanks for your bit of theorycraft. It's wrong but might have some usefull bits.

[wolftalica]

I dont get it...you tell us most of what we need. But you need more detail and I need more instruction. All in all, i'm sure alot of people could use a bit more intruction. Please be more specific.

[Thedarksnw]

@wolftalica Yeah I want to remake it. Everything is answered long ago in comments but people don't read those. Can't blame them but don't blame me too since I got new job and can't dedicate enough time for every video I want to make hehe.

[SwissCow85]

Thanks for the video <3

[Thedarksnw]

@SwissCow85 My pleasure :).

[JudgeGuthix]

lol what sector? or any lolz im such a noob......

[namekman01]

thumba up for ghosst in a shell theme (i mean me to the vid, not asking for thumbs on my post)

[Thedarksnw]

@namekman01 I like good singing too :).

[Thedarksnw]

@namekman01 Thanks ;p love it too.

[Undeadspiral]

hehehe this reminds me of something funny. I was in my Raven, all out care-bear form. And a Hurricane pops in, and starts to steal from wrecks, he goes red, and I'm guessing he wanted me to engage seeing as it was probably a pvp fit. So I set my drones to passive, target him. He targets back, much faster of course. He waits for me to attack, but I set my drones to guard him, he thinks they're on attack, so he shoots, Concord come, and own him. Got to love those kinds of tricks.

[Thedarksnw]

@Undeadspiral Way to go ;p.

[giogiorgi12]

@Undeadspiral :D
