I've just been running some high sec data sites ive in the past 4 hours ive made 25k ... Yes thats just 25 thousand isk ..... since the patch the data sites arent dropping anything ...

The past few days i was making 4/5 isk an hour now ive made 25k in 4 hours ... what the hell is going on?!?!?!?!?!

They locked my last thread as it wasn't in the right area and apparently a report (psst ccp first time i posted since coming back to eve roughly a week ago) So i hope this is finally in the right place ...... please advise me

Been running data sites 6 hours and made only "67,000" isk thats all 67k could do better in my rookie ship doing missions!!!

Exploration and mini-profession sites are not a predictable source of income.

Also, the rewards for high sec space data/relic sites should be really low-- sure, ~5k an hour is redic low, but there is virtually no risk associated with those either, so...

Understandable but i'm not on about high sec vs low sec ... im on about high sec isk making from the data sites have just gone from 5 mil an hour to 67,000 isk in 6 hours ..... how does that even make sense? soo ....

To reiterate, "Exploration and mini-profession sites are not a predictable source of income. " Dry periods and rich periods are expected. Maybe give it more than 1 day before concluding that things have been nerfed?

And no, this is not the right place. Missions and Complexes is where exploration-related threads go. S&I is for industry/research

I am not familiar with exploration but afaik decryptors do come from exploration and they have been changed in Phoebe. Instead of race specific decryptors there are now only generic ones. These seem to have dropped in value. But more importantly: they currently show as 0 value in your cargo bay while they DO have a value obviously. Expect that to be fixed in a few days as market catches up.

^^This. The Decryptors in your cargo have no estimated value. Check the market prices for them manually.

If you aren't getting anything other than trash goods, its possible some one did the site before you and left the junk.
I've seen this happen before, locking them tends to be spooky scary enough to shoo them away

Which is funny seeing as I did it in a Proteus, somehow I'm going to gank them over a few mil maybe and lose skill, and a few hundred mil in ship rig, subs and mods as well as have a KR to try this again?

Of course if you are getting virgin sites and seeing nothing, file a bug report
Fully possible things are messed up post patch, and CCP won't know if people stay quiet.
