It was most likely due to an exploit with the Gurista DED 2/10. Basically it allowed someone inside the second room to prevent the NPC in the first room (who drops the acceleration gate key) from respawning, and thus preventing anyone else from getting inside until next DT.

They shouldn't respawn in the same system IMHO, especially if they're just going to reappear on the Overview. If players want to learn how to use scanner probes with signatures that are definitely in a system they can do the tutorial missions. Beginner sites for new players should have them flying all over New Eden looking for sites to scan down, not sitting in one system.
As for the PvPers, I agree that low-sec needs every bit of help getting more PvP to happen. The two suggestions I've seen so far that I like most are player-built acceleration gates, and taking FW beacons and removing the NPCs from them, keeping the acceleration gates and Overview beacons. |

Speaking of which, how common are people finding these DED 1/10 and 2/10 now that they're scannable?
Personally I haven't found any myself yet |

I fitted myself up a Probe just to look for them :B
No one I've spoken to has seen any DED 1/10 or 2/10 yet.
Yes, random is random, but this is kinda... worrying. Was hoping the 1/10 would be the most common DED to find  |

Wormholes, complexes, archaology, hacking, and also an enhanced way to PVP (warp in using combat scanner probes) are all unique to the scanning profession. Why give scanners even more content? There are lots of play styles that need additional content before giving scanners even *more* content.
Clearly the solution to this problem, is to move Wormholes out of the exploration system and just make them visible on the Overview :trollface: |

Well, in the 3 weeks since DED 1/10 and 2/10 have gone static, I've only seen one DED 1/10 myself, and I've heard of less than 5 people finding them (this while lurking in the exploration channels in game). IMHO they're way rare than they should be: DED 1/10 should be more common than Lookouts and 3/10 and 4/10s.
I hope that when everyone at CCP is back from leave, they'll do some number crunching and look at the amount of times each site is (found and) run. |

But making them statics on the overview doesn't teach beginner explorers anything about exploration :/ Currently they're as hard to scan down as Hideouts, at the most I'd say, make them as easy to scan down as the tutorial sites.
As for the spawn rates, they're super rare. I scanned 2 entire regions on the test server and only found one DED 1/10 and no DED 2/10, but plenty of the 3/10 and 4/10 so... random is random, but make of that what you will :) |

The prices are so high because the sites are so rare, I wouldn't laugh at people if they said something was broken with their spawns. :( |

DED 1/10 is the same as Hideout/Haunted Yard
DED 2/10 is the same as Lookout and DED 3/10 |
