Solo Reclaimer Structural Salvage and Material Refining
Community-sourced · verified for 4.10.0 · 1 source · medium confidence
A solo industrial salvage loop using an Aegis Reclaimer to fracture and disintegrate large ship hulls from salvage claim contracts, printing and packing Construction Material crates into cargo holds, and refining or selling the yield at station commodity terminals.
Information

- 20,000 aUEC
- Crew
- 1
- Ships
- Reclaimer, Caterpillar
- Systems
- stanton
- Locations
- ARC-L2 Likely Pathway Station, ARC-L4 Faint Glen Station, Area18
Steps
- Purchase large ship salvage rights from the contract manager, such as Crusader M2 Hercules Starlifter claims around ArcCorp Lagrange points.
- Fly an Aegis Reclaimer to the derelict, align with the hull, and cycle salvage tools to fracture and disintegrate the structure into the internal buffer.
- Head to the Reclaimer salvage processing station terminal on the upper deck to print Construction Materials into 8 SCU or 16 SCU crates.
- Use a tractor beam multi-tool to manually hoist crates out of the ejector bay and stack them densely into the upper and lower salvage cargo bays.
- Deliver the cargo to a refinery station such as ARC-L4 Faint Glen Station, lowering containers down the freight elevator or processing them in the refinement center.
- If the commodity kiosk throws an invalid quantity error, cycle the stored boxes between the warehouse and elevator on the Freight Manager terminal, then complete the transaction at the commodity terminal.
Risks
- Physics clipping or cargo desync when maneuvering large 16 SCU crates through tight Reclaimer walkways
- Long travel and transfer times vulnerable to server disconnections or game crashes
- Commodity shop inventory lockouts requiring manual freight elevator cycling
Required Capabilities
- Salvage ship
- Cargo hold
