The past couple of days there has been hardly anything spawning around the region I'm in. Past 4 days I've seen 2 Magnos and thats it.

No Sanctums & No Havens even in systems which have a pretty decent chance of them being there.

I'm pretty sure CCP have nerfed DEDs and magno/radar spawn rates. When you do this thing "full time" you get to know which systems these things generally spawn in and how often.

My region is as dry as a nuns happy place and has been now for 4 days ish.

Any other explorers noticing a serious lack of sites spawning?

I have never found any sites.
But then again I have never tried to.

Also, Nanoribbons have been nerfed. And Invention as well.

No less than 15 sites found by me in the afternoon yesterday in my little 4 system area. No change.

Absolutely not a stealth nerf. Maybe a bug? If a lot of people report similar occurrences, we'll look into it but yes for the most part this problem tends to be random behaviour being misinterpreted.

Yeah yeah ....these posts happen alot but its very very apparent that there is close to nothing spawning. Anyone can post "random is random" but even if it was random there would be more then there is right now.

My region has been dry as a bone for a little over half a week now.

Fair enough, Im not expecting 8/10s and 10/10s all the time but theres not even any magnos or radars...there has been a spawn rate nerf I swear.

In fact the 8/10 is pretty common, and non have spawned. I have not come here like a little cry baby over spilt milk. I have looked on this situation for a while now and decided to post about it.

Its as obvious and running the Gallente Worlds Collide and you warp in and you see Blood raider NPCs Shocked

no. its your character name. If you are not at the beginning of the alphabet you wont find any sites

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Anecdotal evidence is anecdotal.

Anecdotal lol...

I wish jerks would go in the game and leave the forums because you ruin perfectly decent topics.

I am posting about something that is indeed very real, based on factual findings. This is not based on 1 days exploring niether this is 4 ish days of an entire region being dry.

In my opinion it is improbable that close to 25 systems be dry of sites for 4 days straight.

If indeed it is a bug as CCP Goliath states it could be then it needs looking into now.

And yet when a CCP Dev steps in and says "nope, we didn't change anything" you continue to whine instead of filing a bug report. Have you tried moving to a different region and seeing if the results are the same?

Nobody else seems to have the issue where they reside.

If what you are saying is indeed the case...file your petition........ and "go in game".

Random is random. I'm not noticing anything "unusual".


Actually that's not true, I've been finding more sites than I normally do recently. But this happens time to time so........ don't freak out. everything is gona be k

No point bug reporting, always the usual really lame reply "have you tried to replicate it? if not please wait another 6 weeks for a reply"

Ive stated my findings a CCP representative now knows and its his responsibility raise this in the proper channels.
