Ever since the update on the 21st me and my corp have been getting s****y nano drops in C3's.

has anyone else been consistently been getting shafted on the nano drops compared to normal after the update?

Its totally random. Just the other day, we had two 50+ drops from two Mag's we ran in our c5.

I thought the same. Before the most recent patch, I'd frequently get 4-6 MNRs from a single anom. The day before yesterday, I got 1 from two anoms in total :-/

The Random Number Generator is angry with you. You can appease it by sacrificing a corpse in a can to the sun, while reading passages from the Necronomicon. IÄ IÄ, Ph'nglui mglw'nafh RNG Reykjavik wgah'nagl fhtagn!

This method also works for rolling your static.

It's because the devs singled you out and are picking on you, for everyone else the drop rates have actually increased with Inferno.

the price history disagrees with you, good sir.

I should buy an Ishtar.

I agree, sadly. It was quite nice a few months back selling them at upwards of 8mil a piece.

But oh well. Feast or famine as they say.

I'm right behind you

I have heard this said every week since Apocrypha.

It's really getting old.

It's hit and miss as always. We ran 17 sites a few days ago. first few sites dropped a ton, next few had 1 or 2, then a bunch off the next few sites.. I think you just hit an unlucky streak.

The price is dropping pretty bad on them, so they are dropping someplace.

and thats what irritating for me also having trouble getting them to drop and the few i have arent worth that much... oh well time to store them in a station

Oh, Do go on... no seriously ive got nothing better to do then listen to all the petty arguments and feeble trolling attempts... 

The sad thing is i'm not sure if i'm telling the truth.

The DEVS enjoy tears . The way to make the nano drops go up is to stop whining on the forums. Be a big boy, and realize that as a wormholer, you are already among the elite in EVE, and that with high sec Incursion bears nerfed, you already are getting good reward vs risk.

Oh, look! ^ I see a Tasiv above me.

After a long time of getting tested by the WH gods they have found me worthy of bounty and gave me 28 nano's in 5 C3 anoms. thank the blessed WH gods for this bounty.

And I just wanted to know if anyone else was getting the same over a 2 week period and with a large enough sample size and a 2 week period you would be able to tell if nano drops had been altered. I did say since the patch and that post was 2 weeks after the patch.

All of the "NANO DROPS ARE RANDOM!" people. Dude I know, that's why I wanted to increase the sample size from 20 people and also monitor it over more time which would give you a somewhat accurate view as long as you take each case in context with the rest not anecdotally.

Although it is an imperfect test because people who are not getting screwed by the WH gods will not be looking out for such a post and people that are consistently probably will, but again time would help with that.

But it appears there has been no change we just had some really rotten luck.

In my experience the more appropriate your punctuation is, the more nanoribbons you will get.
