Why OSRS Salvage Deserves Its Own Page

OSRS salvage loops deliver the GP that contracts alone can’t. This landing page mirrors the homepage structure but is filled with salvage-specific content for SEO and practical use—covering what/why/how, features, sample ROI, testimonials, pricing, and FAQ.

Hotspots & Route Planning

OSRS salvage thrives around Crandor North, Mos Le'Harmless offshore, and the deep eastern waters. Enter on tailwinds, bail before headwinds drain your ticks.

Route Checklist

  1. Anchor XP with a short contract loop (Port Sarim ↔ Crandor).
  2. Insert salvage pins at two hotspots per loop to keep cargo flowing.
  3. Use Wind Catcher or Gale Catcher so the skiff or sloop maintains ≥60% tailwind share.

Hook Upgrades & Facility Pairing

Upgrade Ladder

  1. Mithril Hook → Adamant Hook for early QoL.
  2. Rune Hook for serious OSRS salvage—cuts interaction time and boosts rare drops.
  3. Crystal Extractor placed within two tiles of the helm for passive shards between wrecks.

Keep cargo under 70%. Empty the Extractor every 5 ticks so you never leave the helm. The Wind Catcher + Rune Hook combo turns salvage detours into profit instead of downtime.

Visual Reminder

Incorrect Extractor placement blocking the helm

OSRS salvage relies on helm uptime. Don’t block the walkway—bad placement wastes XP and GP.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much GP/hr can OSRS salvage earn?
300–600k GP/hr baseline; with Rune Hook and high-density routes you can exceed 700k plus shards.
Do I really need the Crystal Extractor?
Yes—salvage downtime is perfect for passive shards. Keep it within two tiles so you never un-man the helm.
Solo or team?
Solo is simpler; teams can split helm/loot roles but need clear communication to prevent collisions.
How do I handle cargo weight?
Return at 60–70% load, or offload salvage at port between contract loops to keep speed up.
What if shard prices drop?
Recalculate ROI with the homepage formula. If shards fall, add an extra salvage pin or raise shards/hr via better Extractor placement.
