Missions & Complexes

Does anyone have a rough idea on the frequency of Ladar in high? Never seen one in my years playing, but curious...

I saw a few in the high sec island in Aridia region (near Haimeh solar system if I recall correctly). It was one of the low-tier nebula sites that's less profitable to mine than normal belt 'roids.

It'll take them less than a minute to scan them to 25% and see they're Radar/Mags. Now if they were wormholes, that'd be more annoying.

If you really wanted to troll them, you'd wait in the last room until they warp in, then pop the overseer and loot it in front of them, then paste (Photoshopped) screencaps showing that it dropped 1 billion+ in loot.

I really appreciate the intervention of CCP - thanks for the edits


I dont think that there is any general rule good enough for every region. In Derelik for example i have often enough a lot of Radars on the scanner. Allthough this is pure luck, it would be a pitty to leave them untouched, and yes, for me those sites are good 40% of my income

The plexes in this region are so often only "haunted yard" or similars. I barely find Sansha Vigils or Watch (hope this is the right one, sorry i have a german interface, so names may be different) or such sites. Those can be of course much more proficient if the right parts of loot drop like True Sansha Warp Scrambler as example

Like often when topics are discussed in a written form, the poster thinks that certain information is well known, though it isnt. I get mails and convos very often asking me about how to startup exploration and such, and i always hear of those, that they never found that or this - which i didnt find in the center and hi populated areas as well

You are right, that more sites pop, when more explorers are working on them in the same region. Unless there are so many explorers that more than one finds a site and also warps in or to it - and then troubles come up. Thats why i prefer the outer regions of hisec, and derelik is one of them.I prefer having less sites spawn but also having the sites i find for me alone instead of quarreling with 2 others over a faction spawn or nasty ninja salvagers come in. Less stress for me

About the values i can tell you, those are the numbers i get out of my excel spreadsheets and those are true for about the last 2 month. Sure it would be much more interesting to see this numbers over a time of like 12 month. As i am about to leave Derelik, since it gets crowded lately, the numbers wont change anymore. Maybe when i am back there in about 2 or 4 month i will continue them

As explorer you should have a wide spread site schema. Leaving sites is not the thing i like. Leaving salvage is also inacceptable. But i have to admit that i dont need to go to any station to change ships or change my equipment, since i am playing with 2 toons and my orca has enough bay for all ships i need and for the equipment. This also gives me possibilities a solo explorer does not have, like building up a POS to have a safespot in pirate systems or wormholes. I prefer to have all things i need with me. But i cannt go for all combat sites with a HAC, which is sometimes annoying

For ladar sites in high sec: In derelik in found some, but those are very rare. Ladar combats are only in low and nullsec, ive read somewhere. Those i found like 3 times in the last 2 month in derelik.

Cheers
