But It seems that instead of trying to make more PVE content for the sub 5 person group, CCP would rather cave in to the deamand of those hunteing for MAX/ISK pr hour.

CCP why don't ypu use some dev time on developing some propper PVE tools instead?


Well first of all you are wrong.

Second of all, hunting scanners with a two pilot SB hunting pack is better fun

What is i wrong about? What other PVE activity can you do as a two person team and both persons feel like they are acctually neede there? Mission? sorry but Lv 4 missions are solo content.

To your last part, yes that may be true but is said PVE, I know that smal scale PVP is a possible, but that is not the isusse here.

Ive bolded the bit you are wrong about above.

And also;

You want looting to be exploitable by two people, but then say that the change caters for "those hunteing for MAX/ISK pr hour"....

WTF is the point bringing the second person if you arent trying to squeeze every last Isk from the site?

You can try this out on Sisi right now. To answer some specific questions the loot in the cans is now 70% of what it was. We doubled the loot with Odyssey. Blueprints will still drop at the post-Odyssey rate though. We'll also be keeping an eye on things as they progress as redoing the loot balance for Exploration sites is on our list of things to improve. The Poteque 'Prospector' Environmental Analysis EY-1005 implant has had it's loot scattering bonus replaced with a +5 coherence bonus to Data and Relic analyzers.

Also yes people still do the Data and Relic sites... there's in the region of 65,000 hacking attempts in sites per day on TQ. Smile

Thank you for confirming that loot spew is going away. That pleases me. Smile
