Xavier Liche ACME Mineral and Gas Likes received: 114	#1 - 2013-06-08 15:40:33 UTC I have only found relics so far and have decided there are a lot of things more fun in EVE then speed clicking small drones and doing mindless puzzles that could have been a free iPhone app. Not to mention the loot is lame, salvage junk?? So I won't bother with relics anymore, no biggie, EVE has lots to offer, is it the same for the data analyzer?

Sometimes they don't even spawn. Scanned a hacking container and it had a BPC and three esoteric something or others in it, and the only boxes that spewed out were parts and scrap containers. I got nothing.

I pulled well over 400 million worth of "lame" salvage junk from one site yesterday (mostly in the form of 20 capacitor consoles, 15 of which came from a single can).

I strongly encourage you to quit doing these sites. Don't worry, I'll make sure they get taken care of.

Scanning the can lets you plan out which minicontainers you want to snipe when the loot spews out. I usually get 75 - 100% of the good loot this way.

Unfortunately, it's still lame even using a cargo scanner and finding the good cans.

You have to hack the specific container with the bpc inside.

I got pissed when I lost a BPC that way.

In fact, the whole spew thing pisses me off.
