:* '''{{co|wheat|Salvager I}}''' (high slot): This is ~~your~~ main tool for salvaging wrecks. ~~Keep~~ one in ~~your~~ hold ~~all the time (they are dirt cheap too)~~. There is a Tech 2 variant (Salvager II) which is more efficient at salvaging, but is also more expensive and needs additional skill training.

* '''{{co|wheat|Salvager I}}''' (high slot): This is the main tool for salvaging wrecks. It can be useful to keep at least one in a ship's hold for convenient refitting. There is a Tech 2 variant ({{co|wheat|Salvager II}}) which is more efficient at salvaging, but is also more expensive and needs additional skill training.

:* '''{{co|wheat|Small Tractor Beam}}''' (high slot): ~~You can live~~ without it, but these modules make ~~your life~~ a lot easier. They pull the wrecks (and containers) to ~~your~~ ship ~~so you don't have~~ to ~~fly to every one of them~~. They are a little more expensive (about a million ISK), but they speed up ~~your~~ salvaging considerably. By default Tech I tractor beams can target wrecks up to 20 km away, and pull them in at 500 m/s; ~~if you fly~~ a Noctis this ~~is boosted~~ up to 2000 m/s at up to 80 km (depending on skills). Note that there are no medium or large tractor beams.

* '''{{co|wheat|Small Tractor Beam}}''' (high slot): It is possible to salvage without a tractor beam, but these modules make salvaging a lot easier. They pull the wrecks (and containers) to a ship, making flying to each wreck unnecessary. They are a little more expensive (about a million ISK), but they speed up salvaging considerably. By default, Tech I tractor beams can target wrecks up to 20 km away, and pull them in at 500 m/s; a Noctis will boost this up to 2000 m/s at up to 80 km (depending on skills). Note that there are no medium or large tractor beams.

* '''{{co|wheat|Afterburner}}''' or '''{{co|wheat|MicroWarp Drive}}''' (mid slot): Even with a tractor beam, ~~you will~~ still need to do a lot of flying around to reach every corner of a wreck field, and the speed boost comes in handy.

:* '''{{co|wheat|Expanded Cargohold}}''' (low slot): Depending on the base size of ~~your~~ ship's cargohold, it can be useful to fit these, as ~~you can~~ carry more salvage at a time (and ~~don't have to make so many~~ round trips to the nearest station).

* '''{{co|wheat|Expanded Cargohold}}''' (low slot): Depending on the base size of a ship's cargohold, it can be useful to fit these, as these allow a ship to carry more salvage at a time (and reduces the number of round trips to the nearest station).

* '''{{co|wheat|Auto-Targeting System}}''' (high slot) or '''{{co|wheat|Signal Amplifier}}''' (low slot): ~~If you have~~ low [[Targeting#Number_of_targets_locked|targeting skills]] ~~and~~ are flying a dedicated salvaging ~~ships~~ with many salvagers and tractor beams, it might be worth fitting one of these modules so that ~~you~~ can target (and therefore salvage/tractor) several wrecks at once. However, this should only be a stop-gap measure until ~~you find time to train your~~ targeting skills. Note that the Auto-Targeting System will not automatically target wrecks (it only targets hostile ships), ~~you would be fitting~~ it ~~merely~~ for its bonus to the number of targets ~~you~~ can have locked at once.

* '''{{co|wheat|Auto-Targeting System}}''' (high slot) or '''{{co|wheat|Signal Amplifier}}''' (low slot): When pilots with low [[Targeting#Number_of_targets_locked|targeting skills]] are flying a dedicated salvaging ship with many salvagers and tractor beams, it might be worth fitting one of these modules so that they can target (and therefore salvage/tractor) several wrecks at once. However, this should only be a stop-gap measure until the pilot's targeting skills are improved. Note that the Auto-Targeting System will not automatically target wrecks (it only targets hostile ships), so in this case it is fitted solely for its bonus to the number of targets the ship can have locked at once.
