Today i complete that garbage penance about 100k salvage trade in Expeditions. There is some quick tipes from my experience how grind this bs faster:
First, and most important - install Radar mod from Nexus. It’s simple mini-map that shows every salvage for you. Without that mod farm cannot be productive. Just turn off everything except expeditions and salvage.
_Difficulty - Malice (on any difficulty there is always same amount of salvage, each expedition zone contain ~400 salvage + enemies here mostly will not bother you cuz they are deal no damage)
_Most convinient class for that penance:
1 - Zealot - a lot of sprint talents + cheat death+ stealth
2 - HiveScum - very fast too with giant dodges and sprint stimms
3 - Veteran - mostly because have stealth too
Also change some effects on your curios for sprint efficiency and equip weapon with high mobility (knifes, duelling swords, tactical axes etc)
_ Grid point for farm salvage - Zeta
There is 4 zones for farm (less additional time for loading), on 4/5 zone u can leave match (because 5th zone don’t contain any salvage at all) and start another - 5-10 minutes time safe, if you don’t need tech remnants ofcourse. Traded salvage count in penance even when you leave match.
Fastest party composition - 4 stealth zealots, just spread to the fourth corners of the map. Competent ppl can harvest full zone in 3-4 minutes, 4 zones x 400 salvage per zone = 1600 salvage from each map in 12-16 minutes. In ideal conditions you harvest 400 salvage yes, BUT sometimes some salvage is locked behind events or stuck in textures, so in average you will harvest 370-390 salvage. You can play random maps but that will be waaay more slower.
I play mostly with randoms so i complete this penance in 2 days (started from 40k, waited whole month, maybe devs will nerf that penace). But if you find 3 more psychos in your party that penance can be completed in hours. Gl, hf, cheers.
