In order to classify signatures when searching for exploration sites and wormholes its now become harder due to the effect of skills/implants/rigs/launcher have on detected strength.
I've created a small Excel file to calculate the max sig strength for different classes of targets.
Target Strength Calc v0.1.xls (alternative)
Here a screenshot (link):
As you can see you can fill in your own skills, implants and equipment. By using the numbers from the list you can determine what class of signature you are dealing with in a solarsystem. Keep in mind that these are maximum strengths: when the probe is on top of the target. If the probe is relatively far away from the target the site might appear to be of a lower strength, so its best to use the longest ranged probes (best 1024 AU) or to move around the probe to see how high the strength gets.
Why?
Look here for what we aready could determine based on the base strength of a target. And here for the possibility that certain base strengths might indicate wormholes to unknown space (0.16% and 0.26%).

Good job - thanks alot.
Now I know that my Sister Launcher isnt completely useless.
But It's sad to see that you can probe down all but the 0,05 Sigs in a normal ship (no rigs, no imps, ...)
Makes the covops kind of useless :(
Lets hope the Wormholes will get an exclusive strength (like the red ones in your table) so we know if its a WH BEFORE we have to warp in.
Edit: Does the 121,65% rule change if you have 5 or 3 probes out?

i'm sure grav rigs mutiply, therefore 21% for two
and there's sister _probes_ in the LP store which are 10% stronger (i'm sure the deep space aswell and the extra 0.5 got shopped off in showinfo). with the ability to recover probes, i will buy them ^^

The "121,65% rule" applies if you use 2 or more probes. Its still being investigated how to prevent more penalty if your probe placement isn't done in a perfect tetrahedron.
Btw: I just found my first 0.05% base site. Was kinda hard, but took the time and it worked:
0.05% - Pristine Serpentis Battle Remnants
I printed out the excel file (with my own skills etc) and I think its quite useful to detect certain sites and to see how close you are already.

Updated: all is now based on precise target sizes (no estimation anymore). Also fixed the grav rig bonus due to stacking.
Thanks for the feedback

lowest base sig ever found was 0.2.
now to the point wich really worries me... virtue implants just became use less, with my maxed out char im just able to find everything - with or without virtues plugged in.
? thats why you didt bother to put the virtues on your sheet? :-)

I scanned a system that contained a 0.03% site just before the effect of skills was added. And I found out (right after the patch) that it was changed to a 0.05% site. Not entirely certain it was exactly that site but the devs indicated that they "fixed" the problem of sites lower than 0.05% so I assume raising the sig to 0.05% was their fix. You could check the same constellation to see if this is correct.

One of the reasons I didn't add them yet is because they indeed seem to be irrelevant. I could still add them. Do you have details which ones etc? That would be helpful.
As for my skills: the above screenshot shows the skills my character currently has on Sisi (also rigs/launcher/implants).

Yeah I hate this too. Now I can probe in a Battleship without Rigs etc.. Kinda weird...

i modified your table a bit, or simpy redid it.
what you see on it, wich plex you can find and what skills/implants/ship/rigs you need to do so.
red = you cant find
green = you can find

if thats true, just remove the last line on my screenshot. however, this wont make it much better :(
before it was not scannable at all, now it became scannable with some halfway good skills ...

red = you cant find
green = you can find
...
// UDPATE
sheet updated, to represent the effects a bit better
Small but important note: you haven't taken the 82.2% multiplication penalty into account yet. If you do you (so everything below 121.65% becomes red) then for example virtues will enable someone with no covop (eg battleship) to find the hardest of sites. Not sure if thats very useful yet, but it makes them a bit more valuable.

Update 2: added a new base class site (0.07%), Virtue implants and changed to better name (Max strength).
Thanks for feedback.

Update 3: Probes ranges have changed and their single probe strength is divided by 2. Keep in mind that multiple probe strength is double the single probe strength. Also the 82.2% penalty has been removed. Also added tip for determining the group a signature belongs to.

\O ty a lot for your xls file
i'm missing the sisters probes
they have got 44 base scan strenght instead of 40 like standar t1 probes have got!
so 10% more strenght

Is it still true that wormholes are size 10 objects? Because on a single test I ran on TQ last night, the kspace side of a wormhole had a signal strength matching the 6.67 size (for me), and the same wormhole on the wspace side had a signal strength matching the 5 size.

With the permission of the author slightly modified the calculator:
The added option of strength probe - for the implementation of sister;
Changed strength DSP :(;
Now the backlight on the scanned areas.

Why are the virtue implants specified as "up to 18.75%" when the Virue set bonus is 33.83% ? :)
Thankyou kindly!

Hi all,
Thanks to DeepBlue and Miss Moonwych for the number that sort of make sense to me.
I've been trying to use the .XLS sheet with the attached instructions on an earlier post that linked to it and failed :(
Sooooo...
To those of us who are metally challenged (its 1:30am here :/) would it be possible to add to that sheet a couple of cells were we hammer in numbers from a scan in EVE, then let a set of preset equations do there thing and have a number(s) pop out the other end.
For example, give it our skills info (already done). tell it we have launched a core probe, the results back are that it is blah AU away and the probe is on blah AU radius, tell it is of wibble% strength, then have it spit out the fact that it is a base flibble object?
tedric.
