Do I just salvage 87-99 or is the great white sharks even remotely worth doing?

I could use the extra gp if they are decent and if it's better xp/h than salvaging, just wondering from personal takes if anyone has done both.

Also worth doing pre-92 since I won't have dragon cannon yet?

depends
salvage is lower exp, but you never have to move boat & is up to 20 min of afk.
sharks, you have to turn in / get new task when you get 15(?) of their item. you also need to loot each kill & crew mates can only shoot at will for 10 minutes, then you need to reenable that setting
think i was getting like 100k exp/hour or some shit doing sharks, but i was doing safe spot method with rune cannons
you could get better exp if you buy repair kits and just face tank a bunch of sharks & use the new cannons. i was doing it on an iron tho, so i didnt have either

I did only salvaging to 99. It's slow but doable. very afkable.
