Hi there,

Not sure where to post this,

After weeks of flying around and searching/testing i can confirm that ccp removed commander and officers spawns from the asteroid belts.

I have killed many many of them last year ( tons of commanders and at least 8 officer spawns) and that was my main isk income.

I know there are many pilots around who are doing the same like me, flying around after DT and checking the belts to find those commander or officer spawns.

Does anyone have any official links about this bad change Question

Please post more info if you know anything more than me.

Ugh

Didn't they say they fixed that stupidity of having them spawn after DT,
because it was too easy for all the lowlifes to farm them?

OK, it's not only after DT, if i choose one region and start flying around, we are talking about lot of asteroid belts and it takes me lot of time to check all the systems, flying with few ships and its not even RARE in comparing to year ago or more, they are vanished from the game, don't know but it sux. If i use a lot of effort and time i could find and kill at least 10 of them per day, now if i use the same or even more effort and fly tru double or even more systems/belts i can't find anything, that's not even close to balance or anything. I really like to sit in the ship and fly around hours by hours days by days and it was something that i really injoyed. Now i need to sit in one system and play with those for my taste boring anomalies. What can i say more Ugh

Mr. Greyscale beside the after DT grind even way afterwards I have yet to see a commander or officer spawn period. I think your nerf went far more than just alittle tweaking you guys removed them. killed rats left and right and they are not spawning been helping friend looking for them for awhile now do they even exist anymore? just saying

Have to admit I haven't seen a domination rat in the belts for a loooooooooong time. Then again, I've only ever seen about two in the belts. Caught one on a gate once.

Maybe they all moved to low sec. Wouldn't that be interesting?

Uhm ... and you still can do that.

You're either a liar, or you don't really understand what you are saying.

I rather think you're a liar.

If it was about flying around, you wouldn't whine about not finding valueable spawns after DT, (or ever)
because it wouldn't matter to you. They would just be a bonus.

Instead you show that it wasn't about flying around at all,
but just about making money.

Dude, you r funny, a liar? why should i lie?, ofc they were a bonus, probably you didn't see Officer spawn ever and you don't know how's the feeling when you find one and you don't know the adrenaline when you going back to your home system tru hostile region with the loot from that spawn. It was a good way of having fun and earning isk. Why should i lie? I like to do that and i've experianced that many many times. So what's bad with that...

Probably a stealth nerf that they do not want to post about, in case it is bugged they don't want to admit that either.
My experience with ccp is that they will try to keep saying its not bugged even when it clearly is.

Commander NPCs still spawn in highsec belts although it's fairly rare, had a true sansha commander frigate spawn on me the other day, the loot was disappointing.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Commanders & Officer are probably AFK cloaking...
