Salvager and Raba regen counts: too high?

[Tigger]

Mostly we did this as a comparison by two most used smuggling transports - sally and ptrain. I was also thinking about a Bison, but nobody had one to spare. And also there's a regular AU8 salvager somewhere in there as well.

Okay, will rewatch in the morning.

Perhaps one reason why I'm missing the OP complaint is that in my mind I see the sally as more akin to the shire type battle transport than a regular transport such as a BWT or Serenity (old firefly?) - which were common smuggling ships in .85/.86 far more than the ptrain.

I understand things change but I'd like to see some comparisons that aren't as wide apart as that. Shire/Bison would kick butt vs a Ptrain or Serenity as well. Most of the encounters I had before I took a break when I drove a salvager were against more than single opponents as well, such as 2 bombers and a GB.

Granted, I've been back in game for barely a week, but I still fail to see that the sally is OP based on numerous encounters both shooting at them and piloting them through 3 mod versions.

Perhaps it's more of an issue of low server population making team effort piracy more difficult than before? I very rarely encountered solo pirates before on any ship I flew and when I did it wasn't that difficult to fight them off unless they were rather skilled.
