Hello,

I never really post but this one has me a bit confused.

I was of the understanding from what i had read in pre patch notes ( that seemed to change alot leading up to patch) that the increase of low sec occourance of wormholes were supposed to be only k-space to k-space holes.

I honestly cant say exaclty how many incomming low -sec holes i have had this past week but i can say that it was an obsurdly large ammount.

Now at first I chucked it up to RGN or just extra busy explorers after patch but i also watch the scan chan and talk to alot of the explorers and all are confirming an excessive ammont of wormholes that are not k space to k space connections. One person quoted saying he had just found 8 in one system, 3 or 4 in the next. and overall was less then likely to find none as opposed to multiple holes in each system.

Maybe some of you can clear this up for me as it looks like i may have to change my way of opperating with soo many incommings if this persists.

If we did recieve a large increase of low or even null connections I'm not sure what the point of that was. This last week i have spent more time scanning, book marking, and rolling lows then i have actually ran sites or anyting else. I dont really see it as makeing w space more usefull or more dangerous.

If more people are warping to WHs they scan in low/null while trying to find the K-K connections it stands to reason that would likely account for the increase you've seen in your WH, as that is what I'm gathering you're speaking about.

As for the increased K-K connections, I can't say that I've ever had more fun just scanning systems and finding the different places I've been popping up in.

As always, RNG is RNG.

The general consensus I have heard is a lot more ppl are out doing exploration post kronos (no more loot spew).

I can say from back when we lived in a WH with a LS static we could sometimes go weeks with nothnig to having our WH look like swiss cheese with so many incoming WH's.

Bottom line I'm not convinced this is any actual change.

Yes you all are more then likely correct.

Today i am surprised to not have a single new ls incomming k162. This would stand to reason i just got the short end of the stick on the RGN last week on top of the additional activity from scanners.

I have to say though for a C3-null it was the most holes i have ever had consistently pop daily and 90% of them all lows.
