The SoE chips are good if u find them. Getting a free nestor would be major profit. (they drop from the sentient spawns)
I believe if you follow the escalations you get a ton of T2 salvage at the end of it. I have never tried though because i ignore the drone sites and run the guristas ones. I run sites in space other people rent/ pay sov for. It i much cheaper than owning/renting sov yourself and it i very hard to lock people out of npc null stations so my assets are 100% secure.

I do have some good news though. As a rentor tons of people will show up to shoot at you so you should get easy access to fun PVP without having to search too hard.
The only point to isk is to replace pvp losses anyway.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

Genuinely useful thread. Was wondering why the various drone anoms and sites I'd been running lately were so pants. Now I know :-(

Not much has changed ever since the Drone alloy removal it seems, a shame.

Tbh, some form loot in the form of those parts to build augmented drones would make for a neat change. Would see augmented drones used more, as currently you can't justify the cost to built one as the T2 is much cheaper & readily avaible.

All the stuff for augmented drones(parts & BPC) are there already, just seeing those drops expanded in the drone loot table would help alot I would think.
Would also make alot of sense lorewise that capsuleers living in the Drone Regions would experiment more with augmenting drones, as they see all these bizarre drones doing things their standard drones can't do.

Still not sure what ESS is...

In any case, I was able to talk to some people and find the sites with better bounties... but my next question is...

If I scan down a site in drone space, complexes I heard they are called, is there any cool loot / items to be had from them in drone space?

I had that question once. The answer I got was "They have a chance to drop something from any of the factions." It got me excited to run them. A few in, realized I may have been trolled.
