For those of you who haven't heard yet, in the last patch the remainder of the DED 5/10 plexes were rolled out.

The sites hit hard, don't take long to do, and drop awesome loot (cruiser B-types), and seeing as how you either need to bring friends or use your brain a little, are actually quite fun to do. Yet if you don't pay attention, you'll lose your ship very fast (as many people this past weekend can confirm Twisted).

All-in-all a welcome addition to low-sec.

Now I know we EVE players are all quick to jump on CCP's back when they screw up, but on behalf of the Exploration channel in game, I would like to wish CCP Big Dumb Object and the rest of the team responsible for these new sites, a very big thank you :)

I'll however play the bad person again and point out that there is 'something wrong' with the Guristas one - or if it was intended that way, then there is something wrong with the other ones.

I'll bug report it later.

So CCP skipped DED9s and DED6s.
Shame. Being a serpentis null leecher I do miss the DED6.

CCP: you promised to fill the gaps from top to bottom. Okay, DED7s and DED8s are a nice addition, you however skipped out the most important one: the DED6. In fact, you gave us the two worst ones.

Well having run the Sansha 6/10 yesterday, I must say I prefer the Gurista one.

I really like the gauntlet run style trying to get in and out as fast as possible while putting up with crazy DPS, whereas the Sansha version felt like running a L4 with having to kill everything in the rooms to unlock the acceleration gates.

the only missing DED6 is your serpentis one :) all the others are there.
5s were much more important, as there was no supply for cruiser B-Type mods.

but i've yet to see a price reduction in A-type mods, i.e. the Pithum boosters.

Why would you?

The gap in price between c-type and a-type boosters allowed the b-type boosters to be priced nicely around 700 mil.

well i think A-Type EANMs wont drop price-wise because of supercapital demands, but the A-Type shield booster is a tad expensive going at 1-1.1 bn.

It's mainly a Tengu/Shieldmarauder mod which didn't really have an alternative, because the C-Type boosts just not enough and B-Type wasn't in game for the last 8 years. Look at its price history before T3 or Marauders came out.

I got mine from the reinvigoration camp when they were going for less than 300

Care to explain why none of the gates in the Gurista DED 5/10 are locked? The site can be blitzed in <5 minutes and arguably has the most valuable module potential.

Working as intended?

This site aside, about how long are you guys averaging in the rest? Ran a 5/10 serp hydro site yesterday in my proteus in about an hour and a half, It felt slower than bashing a POS with a rifter.

20 minutes for the Gurista 5/10 in a Drake, probaby 10 minutes if I tried it a second time.
An hour for the Sansha one in my a Loki, probably take just as long the second time cause I suck :D

I'm coming to the realization that drones are just a poor choice for primary damage application. Damn shame I've got about 4 mil sp sunk into em. Oh well....

If I had to kill everything, the Gurista 5/10 would probably take me about 10 minutes in a tengu.

See if I care about the other ones :)

Prices on Pithum A-types booster won't drop.
