Hi all just wondering if there has been a change to the loot drop from these sites, I've done six over the past few days and got nothing from them?

Random is random. Six datapoints isn't statistically significant enough to draw conclusions. You're still getting OPEs, right? If not, either there's a bug or you're doing it wrong.

Which 4/10 are you running and what are you killing to get the loot?

I realise I might be having a bad run, its just I've never had 6 in a row that drop nothing before.

OPEs? sorry don't follow,

I'm running the serpentis PHI-outpost and kill the BS for loot drop

Oh though I would add that one strange thing did happen today, I was half way through the ships in the first room when they just all disappeared?

I think you just have bad luck.

I have run 2 GSO yesterday, and 1 today so far, all 3 dropped Shiled Boosters.

Sometimes you have luck too.

Nope. A single serp phi dropped 7 c-types for me on friday. 4 single energized, adaptive, med ab and repper. Next hideout dropped me a faction frigate bpc too - which is a rare one - I very rarely get stuff from those.

Runs of 10 or more overseers with no loot can happen, just as single overseers can absolutely pinata. Even gurista's who have historically hated me, and gave me my worst dry spell ever have paid out 700mil in the last 2 ded sites for me.

Only 6 sites? You are lucky, I don't even remember the last time anything worthwhile dropped from any site :(

I've heard rumors that a blood sacrifice can help. IIRC the most accepted method is jettisoning Exotic Dancers, Damsels, or Homeless inside a sun for the RNG gods. Then again, sometimes it backfires and displeases the RNG gods, it's all random Big smile
