I have mostly been doing Gurista complexes.
Do the other pirate factions (Serpentis, Sansha, Angels and Blood Raiders) drop loot of comparable value or do certain factions drop more lucrative loot than others?
For example, the Pithum A-Type medium shield booster, a typical item I might run across sells for around 260M. However, the corresponding Sansha item, the Centum A-Type medium armor repairer, sells for only about 210M. Does that mean I can expect less valuable loot in non-Gurista dead space?
On a related note, I noticed that the loot drops in 8-10 level complexes, like the X-type loot, does not seem to sell for especially large amounts. That might suggest doing those harder complexes might be a waste of time compared to doing the 6s and the 3s where A-type loot drops. Of course, there are the overseer effects, maybe that makes up for it? |

Loot values vary, yes. The most valuable deadspace items are invulns (especially Pithum) and EANMs (all three are the same). These all drop from low sec sites, and yes, the A-types are from 6/10s.
However, there are lots of variables at play here. Guristas low sec tends to be busy and therefore more dangerous. The only true 6/10s are in Guristas, BR, and Sansha space; the equivalent in Angel space is doable while the equivalent in Serpentis space is... special. Just special.
Every faction also drops a different mix of modules. Serpentis and Angels drop prop mods. BRs drop neuts and Nos. Sanshas drop remote armor reppers; Guristas drop remote shield transfers. And that's just the deadspace mods; faction mods also have to be considered. Oh, and not all ship blueprints are equal either.
As for Core/Coreli/Corelum reppers: they follow the same pattern as Gisti/Gistum/Gist. They're more cap efficient for a lower repair amount. It's *much* easier to run, say, a Corelum B-type MAR for a long time than a Centum B-type MAR. Look at all the stats.
So are null plexes worthwhile? Sometimes! X-types are always in demand. Battleship prints are more valuable than cruiser prints. If you want a 500MN deadspace AB for whatever reason: better go to null. Boost amps? Null.
It depends. There are lots of factors at play. If you're just in it for isk/hr -- don't do exploration? |

Have you check their Duration time (Cycle of it)? Just asking... |

Just wanted to comment on the battleship vs cruiser prints, in gurista space, gila prints are worth more than rattlesnake prints  I always found that odd, though I assume it's because of how easy it is to blitz 10/10's, and people are more likely to pvp in gila's (and subsequently lose them) compared to rattlesnakes. |

That would very probably be a 'no'
