Hello,
Recently I've started doing plexes/combat sites in low-sec to increase my money flow and every now and then you
get an escalation.
Now the thing with escalations is that it's often hard to get to the end of the chain making you feel like you did a "quest chain" but didn't get to know how it turned out, sort of like seeing a movie without getting to see the end. While I feel this could be ok
one thing that I find is not OK is when you do 3 out of the 4 stages and you get the last escalation but....
it's 38 jumps away in a 0.0 system.
I don't know about you guys but the territory my alliance controls does not involve 38 jumps or null sec which makes it more or less impossible to complete. So I think there should be some sort of max jump limit, or if it exist make it a little more reasonable.
TL;DR - escalation stages should be within reasonable jump distance

38 jumps seems .. a tad crazy. Not that it shouldn't be like that but in comparison to the self farming moons and the sanctums and plexes in the alliances front yards its a bit of an imbalance.
Another reason why doing missions in low sec, and low sec in general is stupidly pointless.

Escalations are not that far away usually. Maybe your autopilot was just set wrong?

Well, my auto pilot is not set to wrong. It's set to low-sec because I am generally at -10.
I figured, hey maybe it's just that escalation so I continued and I've done quite a few sites without escalation..
Then it happened. I got a minor blood annex and I managed to do it eventually with some help (managing all those neuts/web on something relies on speed is tricky). I did the escalation after that and continued on.. Got stage 3 13 jumps away straight path. So i waited until prime time was over and then off I went, did it with no real problem and got the 4th stage!
3..8.. jumps away. Autopilot? Well doesn't matter really it was at least 7 jumps into 0.0 from closest entry (which was a few jumps as well).
This is making low-sec exploration into quite bull**** but it seems its not getting attention so I guess I just have to live with not hitting the jackpot since CCP hates lowsec. Not all of us wants to live in 0.0 and enjoy the epic lagfests of megablobs. We had an incursion in my home not so long ago and 400 or so peeps in system was enough to make the server cry and modules wouldnt activate - but still I feel we shouldnt be left in the cold just cause of that..
Sigh..
