I've been running several sites and I kinda like the way their are, and I don't have top hacking skills (L4 atm). I love that there is no scattering, that should be removed from the Data and Relic sites too imo. The chance for drops could maybe be little higher though
Good job on this! |

I know that these are not the final stats, but here is my experience with them so far.
I tried to run them in the Stratos, thinking that new exploration cruiser and new exploration sites must go hand in hand right? Well, so far every single time I have tried to run one in 0.0 I hack the fist can, grab loot, turn to second can, NPCs pop on screen, lock scam NPC, pop goes my ship. Hell the last time I didn't even have time to lock the NPCs or even maneuver before they shot the container and blew up my cruiser. |

Saw the interceptor in use with the implants here. Really not so sure this is a good idea. If they're not very expensive, they're going to be very difficult to counter. 5-6 seconds across a system at 24 au/s makes intel a lot harder too. Systems close to a neutral or enemy border are going to be unworkable. |

I went in to my testing session with the plan that I need to hack fast and warp out as soon as the red crosses appear. I have perfect hacking skill, used Astero with a relevant rig and T2 analyzer so that was totally overkill for the Lesser and Standard sites.
One thing I learned the hard way was that once you commit to hacking a new can you either finish in time to warp out or you die. If you try to warp out while the hacking is ongoing it will fail and the explosion will kill you. This happened to me in the first Improved site I did. Combat log said the damage to my ship was 2900+ while I had more than 5000 ehp with DC running so I'm bit confused how the damage application works here unless the logged number is after resistances.
I'm sure balancing the difficulty vs. loot vs. rarity of the sites is going to be really hard because there is no way to determine how high players will value the new implants and high end mobile structures.

do the ones on SISI have loot? I have finished 4 lesser level sites and the cans are always empty.
Also im open to the idea im just bad, but the Superior level sites seem impossible. lvl 5 skills, t2 rigs, t2 modules lvl 5 and 11 sites later i haven't gotten any further than 1 successful can, and it was empty at that. |

EHP takes in to account sustained damage (DPS) and not volly damage. most frigates have an average (when fitted) if 1500, 3000 raw HP, the cans currently do a base damage of 2800 (before sig radious) and have an explosion range of 10km.
best plan for these sites if they are released in this state (is assume things will be changed) then:
warp to site cargo scan all cans hack the 2 with best loot ??? profit

These need some serious de-tuning.
In a startios with level 4 hacking skills, I should have a decent shot at the loot.
Twice in a row:
* Fail on first container, go to 2/3 armor.
* Success on next container.
* Timer runs out midway through the third, and the simultaneous explosions kill me.
This is with halo implants and 70% resists across the board on a stratios. |

Just to clarify, the 2800 base appears to completely ignore resists. Not sure if this is intentional, but it definitely means pretty much any frigate will be popped by one exploding can.

The combat log (and kill mails) show the real HP loss caused to your ship, NOT the potential full dmg that might have been applied by the hit. If your ship is destroyed the value shown will be the total HP your ship had remaining. If your frigate has 2900 HP and is popped by a 9000 dmg blast, the combat log and kill mails will show 2900. If you get hit with 10000 explosive damage and have 80% exp resists, the combat log shows the 2000 of actual HP you lose, not the 10000 potential incoming. |

its about 9k total damage not per can.

Maybe when the whole site pops it behaves differently? (EDIT: Which is to say, I haven't tested that at all).
Regardless, if you fail a hack on a single can, that single can exploding is definitely a fixed 9000 explosive damage. |

Something else interesting is that arriving at a site while cloaked does not seem to start the timer (or else sets the timer to some very large value). Been sitting cloaked at this site for 30 minutes now with no NPC spawn. Not that I'm complaining, seems like a fun way to set traps :) Just not something I expected from the original description of timer behaviors. |

So I ran about 10 ghost sites so far, from lesser to superior (5 of those). and here is my feedback:
1- these sites are complete garbage, literally, 2 cans are empty (or have 10x random mineral), a can will have 1x scrap metal, and the last can may or may not contain something, 5/10 times it was empty.
2- the risk vs reward is absolute garbage. the sites have very high risk with explosions and web/scrams, but the reward is most of the time garbage.
3- the rarity of these sites combined with the random and often low value of contents is not justifiable.
4- ghost sites are very rare, making their content expensive, having a low drop rate on a rare site will make stuff way too expensive. the game might not have a single full ascendancy implant set for months!
5- ascendancy implants are going to be ridiculously expensive. PVPers wont use them because of that, and the only PVErs who could need them are a niche of freighter pilots, and then again half of those afk pilot so they don't care about warp speed.
6- The above applies to the meta mobile depots.
are an interesting idea, but these implants are only a perk. their rarity will make them very expensive, which means pvp players are never going to buy them, and the advantage in warp speed is not big enough to encourage anyone to spend billions just to warp faster.
my suggestions to salvage this disaster:
1- make a GUARANTEED valuable loot in EVERY container, so that players have to make a decision which ones to hack and which to leave, since most of the time rats will spawn on the 2nd hack, OR bring a friend and encourage teamwork.
2- make ascendancy implants CHEAP, to encourage both pvpers and pvers to spend their isk on them. 3- make the meta mobile depots affordable.
The two points above can be remedied by a simple solution: - make each site have 100% drop rate for 1 implant bpc, and 1 depot bpc - make each bpc have 20 runs
the two suggestions above won't make the contents cheap because ghost sites are still very rare, and rats still destroy cans.
4- let the sites have random relevant faction content from the highest data sites. so a serpentis ghost site should have a percentage to drop every item that normally drops from serpentis data sites, such as faction tower bpcs and implants. maybe even a few faction mods as well.

First, you do realize that almost all of your numbered points just hint toward the fact that you are not happy with the test loot on the test server in comparison to the game mechanics that are being tested and scaled right now.
Second, it is rude to call a system you are not happy with all kind of names to insult the creator for something you obviously did not understand fully yet in a childish attempt to gather attention.
These sites are seeded to test the game mechanics you encounter while running the sites, not to provide you with a rich and satisfying loot table. This is by far the last thing you will have to worry about, since it has absolutely no testing purpose whether you hack an empty can or a can filled with hundreds of blueprints. These tests are not about the loot and the creators stated, that the cans will have all kinds of loot in the final version, including some of those more valuable blueprints and one of the materials you will need to manufacture the new implants. Please read up on this in the thread.
This also nullifies all your risk/reward/rarity concerns since you have no values at hand right now to solve this calculation. You also seem to already have an inside knowledge on who will or will not use the new implant set when you base your statements on this.
The difficulty right now is pretty fine. If you fly a frigate into superior sites, do not expect to be able to fail more than one can. Please bring a properly resisted ship like a T3 cruiser, nullified and stabbed to be able to get off a drop on you. The spawn only stays for 1-2 minutes, scrambling you in higher class sites until the cans explode. After that they leave. A t3 ship easily tanks all 4 cans and the 2 minutes spawn. Pods are being ignored, so in the worst case you would only lose weaker ships. That is the life in EvE, I see no need to lower the risk. You bring better ships, you survive without any risk. You bring a weak ship, you might lose and easily replace it.
Since you will probably not be able to hack 3 cans in a superior site by yourself in a fashion time, bring a cargo scanner to check the cans beforehand and decide what you want to hack in the little time you have to avoid sad faces when you get surprised by a lower loot drop.
The market will regulate itself with supply and demand. I for one look forward to get me one or two full sets and will be trying to discover and produce most of them with friends or myself.
Tl;dr: Please stop being rude, inform yourself properly before you make accusations/offer ideas what should be changed, please have a nice day.
English is not my native, so please excuse any typos you might have encountered while reading this.

pretty much what quiby said...
secondly if you bothered to read the whole forum post they would have need duly informed that 70% of the loot table is currently not seeded on sisi. there are a few bits that have made it in, like the named deployable structures.

I would certainly support the idea that perhaps every site should have at least one "valuable" item (depending on overall rarity of the sites), but NOT every container. Fitting a cargo scanner to determine which can has the good loot is a significant fitting tradeoff for at least some of the ships I've played with for these sites. Do I give up a scram, or a dual-prop, or a shield mod for that cargo scanner? Or do I not bother with the scanner and just take my chances that I can hack three or all four of the cans?
It also gives an edge to those who have specifically researched the mechanics of and fit ships for these sites vs. those who just accidentally wander into one and hack a can at random. |

Yup, this is by design. :)
It would be an issue if you uncloaked and the site timer didn't initiate. However, in-house tests are showing us that the timer starts when you uncloak. Team Kuromaku |

Only an idiot would not have a cargo scanner, I am assuming that the sites are being done WITH one.
The idea is not to increase the overall value of the site, but to make the player make a CHOICE! he cannot hack all 4 cans and get all the loot, and the loot values may differ depending on the economy or what the player needs.
The player will have to choose whether he does the site alone, in which case he has to choose WHICH containers to hack, or to take the risk of waiting to bring a friend to hack all the cans.
Both scenarios will make the game play more interesting since the player will have to compromise and make choices rather than just scan the 1-2 cans that are most valuable and ignore the rest. |

Singularity was now updated to a version, which should be very close to the final version. The number of NPCs was slightly increased and the AoE damage is now different between sites. The layout of the sites was also tweaked to land in the center of the 4 sites. Loot was changed quite a bit and nearly all structures should have at least some loot.
The test system EZA-FM will continue working for today, but it will probably shut down with the next patch (probably tomorrow).
The ascendancy implants also received some minor balance tweaks (but unfortunately I don't have the numbers at hand). CCP Habakuk | EVE Quality Assurance | Team Gridlock-á Bug reporting | Mass Testing |

Nifty, looks like 6000, 8000, 10000, and 12000 exp damage from lesser to superior.
Regarding the Ascendancy changes... it looks like on sisi currently the HG Omega multiplier was brought back down to 1.5. This brings back the original discrepancy that HG Ascendancy with HG Omega is not as good as with a WS-618 and not much better than a WS-615. So the HG Omega value will be hard-capped by the cost gap of the WS-615 and WS-618 no matter how rare it is.
That at least gives the HG Omega some wiggle room with a value that might float anywhere from 40m to 400m. Much worse is the LG Omega being brought down to 1.25. An LG OR HG set with a measly WS-608 is better than with an LG Omega. Considering the base material cost for an LG Omega is 80m (not including the unknown costs of Shattered Villard Wheels), whereas a WS-608 is going for about 20m on TQ right now, the LG Omega will effectively be a useless implant.
EDIT: Figured I'd provide the numbers I'm basing this on. This assumes the 0.87 stacking penalty is being applied to the WS-6xx multiplier. Prices for WS-6xx are just a Jita price history eyeball on TQ. For new Omegas it's a floor based on known material costs and current sisi BP materials, so doesn't include the cost of the new Villard wheels or the BPCs. Easy to see from this how poorly positioned the LG Omega is in particular.
HG + WS-618 (600m): 54.75% HG + HG Omega (>135m): 53.63% HG + WS-615 (140m): 51.26% HG + WS-610 (30m): 45.44% HG + LG Omega (>80m): 43.45% HG + WS-608 (20m): 43.11% HG + WS-605 (1.5m): 39.62% HG no slot 6: 33.80%
LG + WS-618 (600m): 46.26% LG + WS-615 (140m): 42.96% LG + HG Omega (>135m): 41.52% LG + WS-610 (30m): 37.46% LG + WS-608 (20m): 35.26% LG + LG Omega (>80m): 33.83% LG + WS-605 (1.5m): 31.96% LG no slot 6: 26.46%
EDIT2: Since I don't want to whine without offering a solution... change the individual HG implant multipliers to 1.12 and change the HG omega multiplier to 1.7 Change the individual LG implant multipliers to 1.06 and change the LG omega multiplier to 1.55. With these new values, the chart looks like this:
HG + HG Omega: 53.20% HG + WS-618: 49.43% HG + LG Omega: 47.79% HG + WS-615: 46.06% HG + WS-610: 40.44% HG + WS-608: 38.19% HG + WS-605: 34.82% HG no slot 6: 29.20%
LG + WS-618: 40.70% LG + HG Omega: 38.80% LG + WS-615: 37.53% LG + LG Omega: 34.98% LG + WS-610: 32.23% LG + WS-608: 30.12% LG + WS-605: 26.94% LG no slot 6: 21.65%
This puts a full HG set + HG Omega right where it is now (53.20% bonus) and also puts it comfortably ahead of an HG set + WS-618. This makes HG + HG Omega the best combo and uncaps the price of the HG Omega to float as high as the market + rarity will drive it. In contrast, a full LG set + LG Omega is a bit faster than current values, but the best LG combo (LG + WS-618) is slower than current. While LG + LG omega is still pointless at the current price point, an HG set with an LG Omega would be 47.79%, which puts it ahead of the WS-615 but still behind the WS-618. This gives the LG Omega a viable price range and purpose, as it can used with an HG set for a bonus and price somewhere between the WS-615 and WS-618, which gives it some sensible wiggle room at current base material costs. |

I edited my previous post to include a bunch of numbers and in particular a suggestion for how to balance the multipliers on the Ascendancy implants that makes sense with the existing WS-6xx values and gives the LG Omega a reason to exist. Just adding this reply to bump thread for visibility since all that cool info went into a quiet, unassuming edit :) |

I was just doing a lesser guristas site in my 8/10 ded tanked tengu, then suddenly I got insta popped.
Explanation was that rats shot the labs and the explosion killed me. well i had 85/80 kin/therm resits, and the site was guristas. if a 1b ship gets insta popped in the easiest high sec site then it's NOT worth doing in any way or shape, especially not for the crappy implants.
cya.
After I got blown up the first time, I put together a buffer tanked ship and proceeded to survive the **** out of the next one.
I guess crying about it might have worked, too, though. |

Checked ghost sites in test system. Experience is strange so far: detonation is happening almost immediately after single opened (or exploded) can. Plus there are 5-6 warp scrambling NPCs. Tanked SOE cruiser (40k ehp, 71-80 armor resists) goes into half armor in seconds, frig just explodes. What is this I don't even... |

Strangely, your description of Ghost sites seems to pretty closely match CCP's description of them, yet you're still confused. |

Yesterday I was playing a bit with those sites.
Question to devs:
I've noticed that once the rats comes to grid and blows up cans they only scram&stay on grid for several seconds, and then warp off. Is it intended behaviour or is it a bug ? James Arget for CSM 8!-áhttp://csm.fcftw.org-á |

It's our definite intention to have the rats warp out after a short amount of time after the containers have been nuked. However, the exact amount of time they hang about is still being tweaked.
