Looks like Crucible silently changed salvage tables and Intact Armor Plates drop twice as likely as before. Jita trade volume doubled with the patch.

or people stopped making T2 cruisers?

It wasn't a silent change. There was in fact a devblog which covered the then-pending buff to Mag sites as well as the uality of salvage (t1, t2) from player ships.

Speaking from experience, certain jump freighters went from dropping only 50 low-value t2 salvage (logic circuits, etc) to dropping high numbers (30+) of intact plates, enhanced ward consoles and the like. Low and nullsec mag sites now drop some nice amounts of t2 high-value savage as well. These two factors combined have created a veritable glut of high-end t2 salvage on the market compared to the pre-Crucible status quo.

I was wondering why I began to find a lot more armor plates than usual. *Sigh.*

This will have a profound impact on the T2 rig markets. I know i will be more comfortable fitting T2 plates to my Proteus' now.

This is why the change to the drop tables was made. CCP wants to encourage greater availability and use of T2 rigs.

Would be nice to see the intact shield emitter prices follow the same pattern
