You were a bit unlucky there, but congrats on getting your first drop!
You can expect a Faction drop from 1 in every 20 Agent or Team burner. It used to be twice that rate, but I think CCP flipped a switch by accident in one of their patches in February/March 2017 and no one's run rigorous-enough statistics beforehand to compare with what we get now to yell at them.
Teams do not drop faction ammo (unlike agents and bases) so when you roll a faction drop it's always going to be a module. However, that module can still be something pathetic like, say, an EM armor plate. But when it's something good you'll be very happy you checked that wreck.
Usually I make off with around 200 mil in loot per 100 Teams I run, most of that isk coming from two or three particularly valuable drops like faction scrams/webs or gyros/mags/heatsinks. The Hawk and Jaguar are pretty much the most exciting Teams for loot, followed by the Enyo. The Vengeance is kind of trash. |

Thanks much - this is great for reference. I'll pay it forward and keep track of how often I get faction stuff in my burner drops.
In this case I believe it was an Imperial Navy armor explosive hardener.
It's a good start, and you will eventually hit a Jackpot drop if you keep looting. Statistically, you will be making more isk/hr by spending the time to loot vs. ignoring the wrecks and moving on, so you should keep looting :) |

That is from the Guristas Anomic Agent, actually. Pirate ship BPCs can drop from Agents and Bases, but they are very rare.
Teams don't drop faction ship BPCs, but I think they more than make up for that by not dropping faction ammo when they roll a Faction drop. Again, my statistics suggest the chance of a faction drop is 1 in 20, the original poster was just very unlucky. |

Yes.Over the past year I've gotten 5 Cynabal BPCs from the Clone Transport in the Angel Base mission (and also a few Dramriel BPCs from the Dramriel Escorts), and two Ashimmu BPCs from the Burner Ashimmu in the Blood base. I have personally never gotten a Vigilant BPC from the Serpentis Base Burner Talos, but someone else in my group did once.
I can't say anything about the Guristas Base since it's an awful mission and I never run it. |
