Anyone else seeing cash bonuses for every, single mission (no exaggeration) for the last several days? I know this is a stupid question as we all know agent rewards *are completely random*.
Just curious...

I've been missioning non-stop for 3 days. Approximately 90-95% of my mission bonus rewards have been a specific trade good. Only 5-10% of my mission bonus rewards have been a different item or cash.
Best regards,

Yes.
My Caldari Navy agents, 3 L3 & 1 L2, give out cash bonuses roughly 95% of the time...

My agent seems to give me a mix of tech 2 componets and skill books, both of which sell very well, the best i sold was for 3.6mil, thats what you call a bonus, especially as it was a implant mission too :)

Nice, very nice indeed 
I have yet, even after about 1 months worth of L3 Missions, to ever get an implant.. Getting quite frustrated as others talk about multiples weekly or even daily

ITS RANDOM!!!!!!!!!!!
my god does no one read the hundreds maybe even thousands of these posts. every single day there's new ones. some get lucky some dont. people also say "o yeah but ive been doing missions for "x" amount of months..." if your gonna qoute time can you do it in realtion to how long you spend on eve or how many agent missions you have actually done and also if youve rejected any missions.
sorry for the rant but like i say there is hundreds of these posts.

True - and maybe I'm seeing patterns where there arn't any, but methinks the agent bonus table = angent's corp sell list.
Being a lazy coder myself, I'd just write a substitute for cash as a bonus rather than a disallowed item on the sell-list if it comes up.
Loooots of BPs on Amarr Navy sell list...loooots of cash bonuses given out. /shrug

spelling mistake (i know there's probably lots more.)
i understand what your saying there most likely is some bizzare codding behind this but if there is its written that baddly that everything becomes "random"... problem is all these post and ccp still wont tell us why, or if there is actually a formula behind it, but yet people still ask the same question to everyone else and they always get the same answers... it just seems futile to me until ccp finally stand up and say . "yes it is etc etc..." and i dont think they plan on doing that any time soon. im just hoping that they have either tried to write a code or improve the one that exists for when shiva comes out. its also why i think they havent replied to any of these posts.
and i apologize for the earlier rant.

Daeyreth, I feel for you. If this yammering continues, I might even start a petition to remove all bonuses from all agent missions.
Then at least people wouldn't have to grapple with the mysteries of randomness. Think of all the melodrama and hysterics we wouldn't have to endure!

ive been having the same problems, I start a new agent, and evrythings fine untill i start refusing the odd mission or too, then they just point blank refuse to give anything but isk rewards! its most annoying. I also dont really want to try it out because it would ruin a few more agents, and I dont have many good ones left!

I've known soem friends who get 100% cash bonus rewards from certain agents and they've been running missions nonstop for weeks to months. The cash isn't bad but it does get a bit boring at times. |

This happened to me to with a lvl 2 agent with quality 10 at Republic fleet. I did all his kill missions but he sometimes gave me courier amd other boring missions, i declined them all. After that he only gave me cash as bonus. Now i have taken a lvl 3 agent and he gives me good bonuses and i havent declined even one mission and i wont. If i decline a mission the agent system must know that i declined it because i dont like the mission, not because i dont like the bonus. I have never said no to a mission because the reward + bonus is bad. Maybe we should be able to give a reason for declining.

I also have a horrible feeling that this may be stopping me getting implants, ive had many important missions now(30-40) and ive never had one that didnt just give isk as reward, apart from one which i got as a second mission from a new agent and they gave me a skill book.

Daeyreth,
Seeing as many cash bonuses as I and others here have seen imply's it's something more than `Random` as you state it... Yes Implants are random as I've read most of the other posts your referring to but it's uncanny so many are just receiving isk rewards + bonuses...
95% is not random IMHO

I had one last weekend that didn't claim to have a bonus but had two cash rewards listed. I've no idea if the second was supposed to be a bonus but I got them both.
