After doing 6 Sansha Watch sites i come to the point, that there must be something wrong.
Until now no Overseer ever dropped anything not even his personal effects.

I only found 2 Vigil Sites so far but didnt get anything out of them too.


Bug?

Has anyone made any other observations?

Overseer drops only some meta trash.

The loot and escalation comes from faction frig IF it spawns.

Did 3 of them yesterday, two spawned faction frig one escalated.

As Alexander said, loot (& possible T2 salvage) comes from possible faction spawn, the overseer ship and/or buildings are for (possible) escalation. Also, OPE only drops from rated DED sites, don't they?

Correct. No OPEs in unrated sites and anything named 'overseer' is a trigger, not a DED overseer.

Hmmmm thank you for the feedback. I was under the impression that those sites could drop something worth the effort .... so back to farm 3/10 and 4/10 then.

Thanks.

The benefit of non-rated sites is the escalation. These can lead to some great stuff. For Watches/Vigils, they can lead to A-type small stuff, in addition to a faction spawn at each step of the escalation and thus a chance for faction drops. All you need is a bit of luck.

aye, I just finished my escalation chain that started from blood vigil, on the way I got bunch of faction crystals (meh), 2 Dark blood adaptive nano platings (12 mil each) dark blood medium beam laser and from the last part of the escalation got A.-type thermic hardener and A-type kinetic hardener, not too good run, but it was fun (fun, becouse I last time I had escalation that led to the end was 3months ago).

its all about luck

Yea, it's not guaranteed, but the main reason I do exploration over missions is because it's just pure fun man Big smile
