Does CCP know when they are planning on implementing the drone loot table so you can equalize the ammount of isk made from drone anom's and ratting?

Last i heard was that it was supposed to be implemented 1 month after the release of the drone patch. Its been 3 months since the changes went into effect.

I'm sure they'll get around to it, but just out of interest, is it necessary for all loot in all regions to be "equalized"?

considering the bounties doest even come close to equaling regular bounty space with just the bounties... not to mention the t1 through t1 meta 4 loot drops that come from regular rats.... this would also include the Faction drops that can total up to 500 million isk from some drops...... yeah i would say that the drone regions need a massive equalization compaired to traditional bounty space.

That was the intention when they removed drone loot originally, so they could balance regions against sec status and not sec status plus rat loot plus moon goo plus anomalies plus ...
So I'd assume that CCP, if they want to follow up on that, should make Drone Regions roughly equal to a faction-rat region of the same sec status.

I don't think all loot should be equalized, but would like to see some loot from drones lol

some regions should be better and some worse, means alliances are always trying to get the better regions

the big problem is that with no drops from drones and no DED like 6/10 or 8/10 its really bad for isk. And the 10/10 are the only ones available and they are terribly bad. Max you get if you are lucky in a 10/10 is 400m which is very bad. You can make much more in any 6/10 in other regions.
This defenetly needs changing.
