Playing for 2 months now, I use to find many expeditions while cleaning public combat anomalies in hisec, but now they seems to have gone.

Did I miss some patch notes about it? With this and the drop chances drastically reduced now combat anomalies seems pretty pointless imho.

Play for fun, not for the ISK?

Define "many"... I go out and do anom's occasionally, both high and low. I would say you've hit a rough patch, everyone who explores on a regular basis will get them.

I do these all the time, especially in lowsec. (You're talking about the warpable anoms right?) Sometimes when I am in highsec I'll do them but I think what happens is there are so many other people that do them the competition is really high.

I'm just theorizing but I think per region there is an x number of, for example, Serpentis Refuge sites and it's possible the same ones that spawn in highsec also spawn in lowsec.

Thanks for all the replies, I'm not asking for alternate jobs or for more iskies, I'm just pointing out a different environment behaviour wich lead to less interest on this specific activity.

Since I've noticed a 100% decrease in chances to get escalations I'm just asking if that was modified by some patch or if it is some sort of bug.

Previously I was able to get 1 or 2 expeditions every... lets say... 10 cleaned anomalies, now I'm at 0 on 50 and counting in the previous 2/3 weeks.

I did a few in Lonetrek yesterday and received two GSOs. One was in null sec (6 jumps) the other was in low sec (19 jumps).

You're **** out of luck. I once got 8 overseer lunchboxes in a row. Just don't cross any busy roads in the near future...

Really, thank you guys, but as the title states I'm talking about HISEC.

So, let me ask this straight and plain:

"Did you get any expedition after clearing a hisec warpable combat anomaly in the last 2 weeks?"

a bunch of "yes" or "no" will be sufficent..

You've been given your answer in multiple posts. Yes they still exist, random is random.

Short answer yes, long answer yes I have, yesterday I got a 3/10.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

Contrary to what you may have been told, things do not spell like they sound - especially if pronouncing incorrectly.

The right to free speech doesn't automatically carry with it the right to be taken seriously.

Expeditions are less likely from one of the "green" combat signatures. You get them more often from the combat anoms you scan down with probes.

Guess so, and it make sense, but previously I've got many expeditions from "green" combat sigs, now 0. They keep saying you can get them but I still think not.

There's no "random factor" in going from 2 on 10 to 0 on countless..

Yes there is random, thats the whole point of random. You are but a tiny spec in the greater scheme of things. You are not average. You are just a data point in what is average. Run 10000 sites and then tell us there is no random.
