So i was doing C2 anoms and from about 10 anoms i got 15 ribbons. Really? 15 ribbons? That's that? Wasted tons of time and ammo on that.

With every "bright" idea of CCP economists i get less and less wish to spend time in this game. Time / Risk / Reward ratio is not satisfactory at all.

Random drops are random. If you want to make isk, farming C2's isn't where it's at. It's about the blue loot!

As the others (sorta) said, give it a few days of running anoms before you declare a nerf. There were days when I lived in a WH that very few dropped, and then the next week I would get one every 2 or 3 ships.

If it continues let us know.

Except the whole game isnt based on RnG, in fact, only a portion of it is (empire/null NPC and player loot and all salvage). Wormhole sites loot is fixed so you get at least one fixed payout, the rest (salvage) is random. If you dont like what the salvage gods give you go back to empire/null and farm fixed bounty rats Roll

I have not noticed anything wrong with the nanoribbon drops. I have noticed that my JBoots are slower after the last patch.

So I rolled a dice twice and neither number was above 3.

WHAT THE HELL??

Why are dice makers nerfing dice?

This.

On the odd occasion when I've been bored enough to run a C2 site, I've rarely walked away with more than 6 mil in loot/salvage.

Your extensive and highly empirical sample size of TEN WHOLE SITES is really convincing me of the veracity of your claims

Thank you for your time ladies and gentleman. I did many C2 anoms in several days and this result is exactly the same every day with variation of + - 1-2 ribbons.

Trolls can go **** themselves in most pervasive forms and then share their experiences in other topics.

Sisohiv you absolutely right.

Morganta that is great idea! Now lets split the nanoribbons salvage there among all participants? Not so great idea isnt it? I thought so.


So here we come to a lovely grindfest. Prices go up. Nanoribbons salvage "random" my ass. Nowhere near what it was in the past. Excuse me but it's not like i'm going to waste my time and efforts on endless grindfest game where time invested and risk taken not result in satisfactory reward.

-1 account.

No you can't have my stuff. I sent it to my other accounts. Keeping less accounts will be better as things are now.

Happy CCP? Enjoy your greed.

In that case you really should get more out of a C2 since a C2 is usually WAY more dangerous than a C3+...

Now if you really want riskless rewards then go to nullsec in a ship that does not require ammo and bring a cloak... Do ninja ratting all day long and watch the iskies roll in. Just keep an eye on local and you will be perfectly safe for just about as long as you like.

When it comes to PvE deep nullsec is the safest place to be no doubt about it.
