I recently took up doing a bit of Low Sec Exploration, Lately I've been doing stuff around the Amarr space so mainly Blood stuff, I have noticed that lately the average drops from a Low sec Site have been between 100-500k, Is this normal loot amounts or is this just some severe bad luck I've hit?

If this is normal then it would literally take months to Make back the ISK from the Stratios I'm flying...

Exactly. You get your good days and bad. I spent 3 hours running null sec sites and walked away with an avg of 5 mil an hour accross 10+ sites

Next day. 2 sites in hi sec 22mil or something like that in less than 20 mins

low sec is barely better than high sec. Null sec is disproportionately more rewarding and honestly if you're looking to make real money, head to null or wormhole space.

Very accurate!

Some days I make a few million ISK, others close to a bil and very few special occasions more than that. It's really hit or miss however stick with it and the good scores will be well worth the dry spells.

Some advice would be to use wormholes as like a high-way between regions and sometimes a good way to find yourself deep in null sec surrounded by empty systems and more sigs than you can scan down. Also scanning in wormholes will yield you data and relic sites comparable to null sec sites so try it out sometime just keep an eye on d-scan and keep your wits about you and you should be fine*

Thanks for all the advice, Been great help :) went out a little in the stratios after taking my daredevil for a little roam, Got 19 intact armor plates in the space of 2 hours so was much more rewarding :) Onto J Space and 0.0 tonight!
