I have been doing a lot of 3/10 and 4/10 sites in Caldari space. So far I have found four worm bpc's from the 3/10's and one from a Soothsayer expedition. I have yet to come across a Gila BPC. Not crying about it just trying to figure out what the likelihood of finding one is. I have gotten each of the Pithium C-type stuff many times including the Adaptive Invun field three times. Am I just unlucky or is the Gila BPC really that rare?

I am also wondering if the drop rate scales with the level of the site. The 3/10 being the top of the frigate group would have a higher chance of a Worm than say the 1/10 or 2/10. That would seem to say that a 5/10 or 6/10 would be much more likely to drop a Gila BPC.

You'll need to run 6 and 7/10's for a chance at Gila BPC's.

What? No. Gilas, like all cruisers, drop from 4-6/10 sites. 7/10s drop BS prints.

I've never noticed -- nor have I looked for -- any disparity between 4/10 and 6/10 BPC drop rates but I suppose there could be one. If there is a difference I suspect it's relatively small though. Keep rolling the dice. Eventually you'll get one -- and given the fickle nature of the RNG you'll probably see three more before any blue loot.

Gila BPCs from 4/10s are extremely rare, but I've had it happen a few times. 5/10s on the other hand drop Gila BPCs like crazy.

I've had Gila bpc's drop several times from 7/10's.
Granted its been a while since I did any 4/10's (since Rubicon I think), in the several hundred I've done up till then there was never any gila bpc's.

The first time I ever got a Gila from a 4/10 was after one of the last "mini expansions", it might have been Crius (not 100% sure which exactly, I think i mentioned it somewhere in an older post, but by now they drop there like crazy).
According to my loot container holding the OPE it required a bit more then 260 GSO for the first Gila BPC to drop for me, so I think it got added to the loot table only recently or I have been quite unlucky before...
