I noticed this too, was hoping to get a gistum c-type but had to go with pithum instead

CCP might have broken it already, thats the most likely answer since all others are in contracts in abundance Straight

How much herp could a herp derp derp if a herp derp could herp derp.

I seem to have trouble finding Gist C Type anything including Shield Boosters.

Knowing the impact of those items in some Titans and Supercaps Caps expect a few months before those show up and at prices obviously ridiculously high, atm those available are being fitted on Matar Titans/SC's/Dreads Lol

Unless OC you live in drone regions and have 6 accounts that bot all day, you already have carriers/sc's, Titans, faction/officer fit witch in this case you don't give a f... dam about all this excitation stuff.

I doubt Super Pilots are fitting Gistum C-Types and C's have the same Stats as the cheaper DG / CN Invulns. Most Supers would probably not bother and go for B / A and Pith Mods which have better stats for the price.

What is more I am talking about more then Gist C Type Invulns. I have noticed for a long time that Shield Boosters among other Gist C's appear in very low supply and at prices close to, equivalent or even higher then their B Type Counterparts is all contracts seem to have.

Their is an Ample supply of Pith C and Gist B / A but C type anything seems to be in Low Supply. I am just wondering as to why.

Please clarify if you are talking about medium (gistum) or large (gist) modules.

Gistum c-type was scarce because angels had no ded4 until recently - you could only find them by doing expeditions. b-types were/are 'abundant' because of the ded5. a-types were/are scarce because they do not have a ded6, again you could only get them on expeditions.

If you browse contracts for gistum a-type stuff you will see that booster and prop mods are relatively rare, while the invuls are quite common (because they drop from the ded4).

About Gist modules: I wouldn't wonder if b-types are just more farmed. 8/10 is faster to do than 7/10 generally. I also heard about 8/10 in angel space having some peculiar properties that lets people cherry pick the drops.

I was referring to Gistii, Gistum and Gist as Gist because their isn't really a name for the line outside of C Type. I noticed that their is very few in that C Type Line on Contracts in general.

So if I am not mistaken they recently filled in all the holes in the 1-10 Complex Line with the new Dungeons so does that mean their should be an increase in C Type Modules in the near Future?

Yes, don't pay absurd amounts of isk for, wait a while for prices to drop.

This is exactly my reason for asking, price.

There were meant to be 6 new modules to compete with 3 of the 4 officer types.

We have Gistum B and A droppinng
We have Pithum C, B and A dropping

Could be on purpose, since the lowest officer for invuls is kiakkia is equal to pith c theres no gistum c-type eqiv (as the pithium c is the same as the gistum b)

To confirm; Gistum C-Types aren't dropping because the A-Types are dropping from the 4/10's?

The three modules have the same resistance bonus, yes, but the main benefit of Gist(um) shield mods is the lower activation cost. 40 GJ can be brutal on your capacitor.

Well not all holes concerning ded-sites are filled. There are still DED 9/10 missing (everywhere i think) and DED 6/10 in serpentis and angel space.
