Been talking to some guys and gals in game about loot drops in empire space..
this is what i am lead to think..
as a empire player we get crappy drops coz we are playing in empire.
Ok i can see that, now my points are as follows.
1. Do we not fight rats as strong as those in 0.0 via missions? 2. Why do 0.0 players get the good drops and the equal mission payments ?
Now if things are to remain as they are and we are to get crappy loot drops then maybe 0.0 players who do missions should get crappy drops too? if they want good loot maybe they should go hunting as such outside of missions? or get crappy payment and crappy offers from thier agents?
ahh well my ramblings. 3.

To answer your questions.
1) Yes and no. The rats are kinda the same, but you don't take the risk of being shot by other players while missioning (as long as you stay above 0.4). 2) They don't. 0.0 Missions involve almost no bounties, and the loot drops are as crappy as in empire. But out there almost every BS drops a can.
If you think 0.0 is the land of milk and honey, I'd suggest you go out there.

Edited by: Joshua Foiritain on 22/01/2005 13:32:26 0.0 mission drops are indeed just as crappy. The only advantage is that you get a tag of every mission npc you kill. But theres also a lot bigger risk in 0.0, since there arent even any sentries to keep you safe
I still have +1000 Gallente tags from working for Serpentis ---------------------------

I do missions in Empire space and get tags from most of my victims as well. This might not be specific to 0.0
As for the quality of loot... well, rare loot is, by definition, RARE. If every BS dropped a couple modulated tachyon beams the universe would be full of snipers now wouldn't it ? But instead, BS drop 1MN Afterburners... deal with it

In general, 0.0 is usually safer than lower empire space. Lower sec empire missions within view from gates and POI's are often patrolled by pirates, while higher security versions seem to be plagued by nasty loot thieves - and there is sod all you can do about it which is most annoying!
I find loot drops seem to vary, some days battleships rarely drop cans and give crap loot, other days they all seem too and its named loot galore.
I've picked up a Modulated Tachyon beam laser from an Amar Apoc in 0.6 space so you can get good loot in empire.
