On the latest build (85232) deep space probes are now down to 5 base str, from their original 20.
PLEASE do not put this live. Deep space probes are currently the only way to filter out all the grav/ladar sites in WH systems - so if this goes live, it'll take 10 times longer to get the useful radar/mag/unknown sigs in a WH system, which is NOT fun.
If you must nerf DSPs, buff cores to make them more useful in WH systems, or remove the grav/ladar site spam in WH systems, or actually implement and option in the filter to only show sigs that are of a certain type

It's not like they're OP in the first place, and their current balance vs cores is just right this way; seeing as they require astro 5, that's a good requirement for being able to have that level of usefulness.
They're MASSIVELY OP in the first place. You can go into a system, dumb 4 probes, and get warpable hits on every ship in the system, in deadspace or not, within 30 seconds.
Agreed that theyre OP for ship scanning. Something needs to be done about that.
But nerfing them for finding sigs is a TERRIBLE idea. cores need to be buffed to make up for it, because WH space is just ridiculous for trying to use cores to filter out the grav/ladar sites out

W-space isn't supposed to be easy to scan through. They're also OP for w-space.
Yes, it can take a bit of time, but it's not hard to find what you need with core probes in w-space.
It's not hard to scan with cores, it's just extremely time consuming and not fun whatsoever with a poor filtering/archive system.

Time consuming? yes, it's supposed to be. Finding your way around w-space is not supposed to be easy
Unfun? Matter of opinion.
again, you appear to be confusing easy with ridiculously monotonous, which is exactly what having to use cores in WH space is with the current filtering/archive systems
