I've got cov ops 5, rangefinding 3, a sisters launcher and probes, and even at .25 AU I can't seem to get more then 80% on a 10/10 site. Do you need to have rangefinding trained to 5 to find high end sites, or am I just screwing something up?

What level do you have in Astrometric Triangulation? That's 10% per level right there. Do you have Gravity Capacitor rigs on your ship? They're another 10% each. ______________________________________________________ Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you? |

Edited by: Sir Zzang on 02/08/2009 14:26:53 Then you're doing something wrong as i have all scanning skills @ 3, covert ops @ 4 ,Sisters stuff and i didn't found any single unscannable site including 10/10. (0.0 ofc) _ :D! |

Yeah, I figured it out. I didn't realize the probes have some kind of falloff even at .25 AU. I was trying to keep the probes from touching each others' scan radius as much as possible, since if you stack them right on top of each other they cause some kind of interference. I needed to put them a little closer together though. Seems like the sweet spot is right about the middle of the probe's scan radius.
Now it's so easy, I almost regret wasting my time buying Sisters stuff. Strangely enough, I haven't seen that mentioned in any of the multitude of scanning guides around. I could have saved myself quite a few days of pain, suffering, and extra training time if I'd known that tidbit.

Yeah. They only cause interference if another probe overlaps another probe itself (as shown by the white box with the arrows sticking out). Having the radius overlap (triangulation!) will ensure a good result.

Yeah, triangulation itself wasn't the problem. I had all 4 probes on target. It's just that each individual probe actually seem to get a better signal the closer it is to the target, regardless of the scan radius. I wasn't sure exactly how close you can put the probes together, but if you can have them all but on top of one another it will be even easier. Thanks for the info.
