we did the lvl4 pirate slaughter mission last night we just did the mission in time to get the bonus without picking up the cans and then went back in frigs and dragster haulers.......it took well over an hour to pick up all the cans from all 10 locations longer than the mission itself and of the 5 bs that were there not one dropped a can.....i blame u joshua you seem to have inherited our good fortune

yes i do them the same, kill all the rats book mark the cans and go back in a indy with overdrives and an 10mn ab to grab all the cans, it does take longer the mission to get the cans but i have gotten some good loot in the few misssions i have done (10-30 of them???), got a 350mm proto gauss, a 425mm 'scout', 2x limos seige launchers, plus some other goodies, the good loot is rare but it does drop ocasionaly. just make sure to get all the cans.

i knew there was a reason why they put the cargo bonus on the exequror good ship for loot scooping.
I know it takes an age but in 1.5 weeks of mission running i have more than enuf base mins for a tier 2 BS (building my corpy a raven out of em). So not only do you get bounty + lp offers + rewards + some named loot u get a nice little side line that most people ignore

This was the Unauthorized Military Presence mission.
I did Phase 1 and 2 in my Ferox but when 4 Pith Destroyers (750k) and around 5 cruisers and 5 frigates spawned, I had to go get my Raven out.
The mission in total took almost 2 hrs to complete - most of it collecting the loot.
None of it worth keeping, I might add, despite the fact 3 of the BS left a can.

Good, isn't it... I use a cormorant or a raptor for the cleanup afterwards rather than a ferox, the acceleration of the later sucks when trying to get around. The ones that end up annoying me are the spawns across multiple systems, where you have to do the cleanup in a slower ship.
That and the swarm of ****ant frigates that spawn as the second wave of the marine freighter mission. They are a pain to lock, lag the system to hell and drop lots of useless cans. Then again so do the pith destroyers that follow, so...

Just fit a hauler with Nanofiber Internals, and a 10mn AB II. I do 666m/s in mine and it makes loot pickup a breeze. -----------------

Well...maybe not enough worthwhile loot
The ammount of basic mods being dropped is errr....staggering... and most of the new gist/pith etc rats -whenever- they drop a can, drop maybe 1-2 mods at best, them being basic (not even tech1 )

People arnt complaining about the quantity of loot, they are complaining about the quality. You spend time killing a 1.25m BS rat, and when the can drops (IF a can drops at all) you fly up and go "Oh wow, a Basic *insert commen mod name here* how pointless." -----------------

We sometimes have a small Corp event doing level 4 mish. When doing that one of us (with lesser combat skills) flies a Frigate and collects the loot. Wen the hold is full, a jetcan is made and BMed.
This way there are less containers to pick up with an Indy.

Use a cargo scanner? There was a note about them in one of the patch notes, but I haven't actually tried it... (yes I know it doesn't address the issue that you are raising, but...)
"The ranges of various scanner modules have been increased. For example, cargo scanners now have a 50KM range and can be used in Deadspace and Belt pirate hunting to check loot cans for phatness. Survey scanners have range equal to most miners. Ship scanners range has been increased to 50Km, thus increasing their ability to analyze enemy ship fittings."

All loot is good loot.
A) It's free money B) It builds my torps C) Occasionally you get a decent module worth millions D) Occasionally you get a decent module worth millions E) It's free money F) Oh yes, it builds my torps.

I'm not complaining about the loot.
I'm just curious what a similar set of frigates/cruisers/BS's would leave in 0.0 as comparison.
I slavishly collect all loot and recycle it. However, I've not done it for a couple of days so I now have almost 20km3 recyclable loot to refine....

Gurista loot usually contains medium hull repairs, tracking disruptors, smartbombs and bursts.
Get somebody or an alt to pick it all up and recycle it. After 2-3 days of doing level 4 missions you can end up with like around 2 mil trit, 2 mil pyer, 500k mex, 20k iso, 300 zyd, 500 mega
mmmm mmmm good!

This is why large quants of 0.0 players whined for a mission rat loot table nerf during shiva testing.

2.5M trit 1.5M pyr 7k nox 320k mex 1k zyd 1.2k mega 34k iso
Another 3 days of missioning and I can probably very nearly build myself a megathron.

I miss the challenge of using it in level 4 missions and, hopefully, by that time 350mm II's will be fixed \o/
