    Here's a way to boost your salvage endlessly:

    When you reach the point where you have to "Find your way out of the sewers" there's an area with both an upgrade and a weapons station. But most important a few steps ahead up a stairway there are a few square lamps at the ceiling.

    Shooting them earns you salvage. Repairing the lamps and destroying them again gives you salvage again. You can repeat this as often as you wish. Doing so starts a rain of salvage giving you unlimited salvage plus the weapons station lets you refresh your ammo as often as you want. Don't use explosives though - they will permanently destroy the lamps (thanks to Tarzakul for the info).

    Easy way to gather 25.000 salvage to unlock the achievement and to upgrade you character's abilities.

    I found a video that shows you how it's done (credits go to foochy)

    HiradCGood solution, unthough it's undoubtedly effective I wonder how much salvage you get in the average playthrough as it was still quite time consuming.

    Couple more tips, shoot specifically the light shown (aiming for the brown fuse) as it will blow up the adjacent light giving more salvage for your bullets. The repair has to be aimed slightly to the right to make sure it fixes the other light aswell and you get that lingering effect allowing you to get up to 7 shots from 1 repair.

    Equip the assault rifle,pistols and banshee so you have to return for ammo less.
    Don't use magnet gun either as if you remove the light fittings you can't repair them.

    COMMANDO XTC@ HiradC On my first playthrough I was able to buy every upgrade and still had a few thousand units of salvage in my pocket - I boosted a few thousand though and I was searching for salvage and collecting it everywhere. If your aim is to collect 25k in one (your first) playthrough I'd say you are not gonna make it (or barely make it). So why boost at all? The thing is, the sooner you get a high amount of salvage the sooner you can upgrade (on your first playthrough) plus every amount of salvage left at the end of the game can be used for your Game+ playthrough for buying amazing new weapons and cheats - and those are very expensive!

    HiradCYeah actually in hindsight for those going for 100% I'd recommend not bothering too much on first playthrough, wait for new game plus when playing on insane and buy the leo machine gun. This way you have infinite ammo so can farm salvage for as long as you have patience (most time spent normally is running back to refill on ammo).
