The Best Ways To Farm Salvaged Frigate Modules

• Complete industrial frigate expeditions from your navigator at most 5 times a day for a chance to get a Salvaged Frigate Module.
• If you have the resources, go to a pirate system, attack, and then loot freighters for a small chance to get a Salvaged Frigate Module.
• For more chances at Salvaged Frigate Modules, complete missions in space stations, on The Nexus, or in pirate systems.

Completing frigate expeditions.

Speak to your navigator to complete industrial-type missions. Depending on the difficulty of the mission, a Salvaged Frigate Module may drop (7-20% chance). So if you're a beginning player, a frigate module may not drop on your first mission, but you can complete up to 5 a day. Industrial-type missions have the highest drop percentage.

Looting cargo pods in freighters.

Go to a pirate system, shoot the cargo pods of freighters, and pick up your loot. This has the lowest chance of dropping a Salvaged Frigate Module but is perhaps the most popular and easiest method for most players. In a tier 3 economy system or pirate system, there are lots of freighters for you to shoot and loot. The drop rate is 1%, so the first freighter you shoot will most likely not have a Salvaged Frigate Module, but the next one might!

Looting Storage Units in crashed freighters.

Find a crashed freighter and loot Storage Units. Find any crashed freighters by using a Signal Scanner, talk to aliens in space stations, or use your Analysis Visor. Finding crashed freighters is a rarer source of Salvaged Frigate Modules with a drop rate of 7.5%.

Complete missions in The Nexus.

Go to the Space Anomaly and get to The Nexus. You can browse the board for any that award a Salvage Frigate Module and complete those. Completing missions in The Nexus has a 4% chance of giving a Salvaged Frigate Module.

Doing missions in space stations.

Go to any space station and check out the mission board. These are not the same missions that are posted in The Nexus. Missions on space stations vary depending on your standing with specific beings. So the Salvaged Frigate Module has a 2-4% chance of being rewarded.

Looting derelict freighters.

Find a derelict freighter and loot the storage units you find. Derelict freighters have enemies that you need to beat in order to progress through the area. They are difficult to impossible to solo (depending on your level and setup), so grouping up with other players is advisable. Drop rates are pretty low for each individual container, but you'll be looting so many containers that your chances go up! This has a success rate of 2.5%.

Completing pirate missions.

Go to a space station in a pirate system and do the missions listed. Pirate missions are more difficult and not a popular choice by other players. There's only a 2% chance that a mission will reward a Salvaged Frigate Module.
