I am after info on officer spawns.

this what i know[ or think i know]

best chance is in npc null

in sov it doesnt matter what sec status the system is ?[ but does effect faction hauler spawns ] i dont mean the spawn rate. i mean cruicer v battleship faction spawn .. hauler bulker v trailier etc


number of belts matter 10+ is good


DT trick doesnt work anymore .

This is what i have been trying . find a couple of system with 10+ belts , clear them all repeat.

is there anything else i could/should be doing .

willing to pay isk for good info

No nothing else you can do just choose one system,ship with big warp speed annd a lot of dps so you clear belts quicker and just do it more belts you clear bigger chance of it spawning, but dont get fooled once you have it you need a really strong ship to kill it dont underastemate it it will get you killed

The only ones that are really dangerous are Guristas, the rest can be solo'd in a Gila if you know what you're doing (hint: kiting). For Estamel for example you need about 2000 EM DPS iirc, other factions have very weak active tanks or none at all and you only have to chew through their buffer with, for example, beefed up Gila drones.

thanks for the replys . i have a ship able to kill ny officer . just getting one to spawn seems to be the biggest issue !

It just feels like im missing a trick with this . and when i google it always seems to be a person who is like" i get 2-3 a week"

but starting to think this is pure BS

I dont know how you are farming them, but the guys finding “2, 3 per week“ clear several thousand beltspawns every week. They don't just farm a system 2 hours a day, make that 10, and 2-3 systems simultaneously, and you got an idea.

im using one ship to go to belts and clear them. fast warp/high dps. one system 10+ belts . rinse and repeat

but i guess it just about luck and keep going
