While missioning you have already done the hard part of killing rats and have earned bounties and rewards.

Salvaging is easy to train into (under 2 days for salvaging III, ORE Industrial III to fly a good noctis).


Lower level characters can become part-time salvagers for level 4 [[FLEETS101 - Introduction to Fleets|locust fleets]] and individuals and gain higher profits than doing their own relative mission levels. As salvaging does not need high skills, expensive ships/modules and is relatively safe, and suitable for young characters (alts).
