Hello thar.
I ran about 12 plexes (DED 5/10 and 6/10) in low sec the last few days and i got 3 deadspace modules out of those. 9 times there wasnt a single deadspace mod (yeah, sometimes there was a faction BPC but most of the times there was nothing).
This wouldnt bother me too much, but from my past experience this seems awkwardly low. In the past there have been some rated plexes that dropped no modules, but that happened maybe every 3rd or 4th time and you sometimes got 2 mods from one plex, so this evened out at about ~1 mod per plex.
It feels like there was a change regarding the drop rate.
Does anyone have the same experience regarding the time period over the last days/week?

Normal to above normal here. Get your n up; 12 isn't significant. |

Yes it has been nerfed. Didn't you read the patch notes? Go back to missions. |

CCP nerfs droprates in every patch. Those who have been monitoring their drops have concluded that all exploration loot ceases to drop in Q2/2013 if this current rate of nerfing continues.
It's generally recommended to get back to L4 grinding in hisec, exploration is dead as a profession.

No, he got 3 DED drops. He also got some pirate cruiser BPCs too, but apparently those don't count or something.
@OP, there are two ways this ends. 1. "Yes, exploration is 'broken', go back to missions and leave the exploring to the real explorers". 2. "Your sample size is pitifully small and shows business as usual, get over it". Take your pick. |

In my experience it's completely random, a good 60% of the plexes I run only drop overseer effects BUT it is not uncommon to get multiple deadspace items from one plex.
So in answer to your question, I doubt it's been nerfed, lady luck just isn't smiling at you it seems |

I have been having worse luck with exploration lately. The other day I ran a combat site I have found from time to time. It escalated so I thought I was having a lucky day for once. Well the first escalation site had no faction cruiser at all, I thought it was bugged. After killing all of the regular npc's it said something about me missing the target or some such BS. I've never had an escalation chain end without even seeing a faction ship.. |

people wouldn't even notice a stealth nerf to plexes droprate and say " hey random is random". Yes it is, but calculated droprate is only known to devs |
