nah I don't think they need to go a size above the Reclaimer for a salvage ship. this thing is a pure capital ship. it might be small in comparison to most other capital ships, but it embodies a lumbering giant like no other ship in the game. Especially now with the recent component buffs giving it a capital shield generator, this thing lives up its role as a capital salvage easily.
I think CIG missed the ball when it comes to industrial ships armor and weapons. IMO ALL industrial ships should have great shields and be able to give every member of the crew a turret to defend with but when it comes to armor they should be a brick shit house. It should take considerable effort to take down any industrial ship. When it comes to maneuverability, slug should come to mind. For the purpose of industrial movement, a straight line is reasonable in respect to velocity. This means that IF a group or ORG needs to remove a miner or salvage etc. they need to plan their attack and do it with purpose. Maneuverability alone should prevent industrial ships from being used in any normal military mission.
Solide 8/10 one of the best way to make money in the verse
Can't wait to see the reclaimers gold standard pass, it's bean around for so long it's almost a restoration project
I hope they keep the atmospheric feel of it. It feels like I'm in alien on this thing. It could use a forklift though.

Dude have you salvaged with this? Your numbers are way off. Sure 420 SCU on paper but I’ve clearly packed over 2000 scu just in the salvage area.
Lmao I have but I was just going with the official numbers in case they nerf that. I think that's better as a "best kept secret" lol
3x large shields 1x size 5 duel turret 6x size 3 duel turret
Wait what did I say? Thanks for the correction by the way.
Also needs capital pads so no use as a cargo runner as it doesnt have a docking port.
I make about 6mill/hr solo so its perfectly viable solo
Great point

Hopefully we'll be able to improve ship armor and maybe some will be easier to upgrade than others.
I'd love to get my hands on one of these babies. Munch up some space junk.
I have one and even at tier one it is so much fun!
one of my favorires for multi-crew battles
I love this ship, the hardcore salvage nerf they did made me sad, still keeping it though
Once you have one of these you are never broke.
I love this ship
This ship is a money printer 🖨️
Yup.
So you fell for the fomo
And discovered more fun
I'm convinced Star Citizen is an experiment in FOMO
