I went from being happy to get level 4 drone missions to logging off if they are offered and my 4 hour decline timer is still counting down. They aren't worth the time to do them since they have no loot and craptacular salvage. I wish CCP would just remove them.

Seems to me they are still better than not playing while waiting out the 4 hour timer.

They have now bounties and blitzing missions for the LPs is supposed to be more lucrative than looting/salvaging anyway, according to those spreadsheet-loving, statistical-obsessive nerds... Cool

in that 4h timer, you can grind standings with other corp, so you'll have more lvl 4 agents

Remove or improve.

Try living in the drone regions where you don't have the luxury to and pick and choose what you fight.

Yeah that must be pretty annoying to deal with.

If you do missions fast enough loot/salvage isn't worth it most of the time anyways. Just blitz them.

I don't care about ISK / Hour, I like looting and salvaging and hoping for some special module or such to drop. It just adds a bit more excitement to the missions.

I do think that CCP are missing a trick here, *here we go* I fish in r/l and its more about the excitment about seeing what on the end of the line. Much like looting a can, you never know whats inside you could get something pretty crappy but hey every now and again something drops that is significant which makes it all the more exciting rather than grinding the missions - wheres the fun in that?
