Originally by: Ruddger When CCP makes a broken plex, they really go all out and smash as many areas of the game as they can. Yes, everything Jim wrote here is true. I also pay 100 mil for the corpse of the people who do this in in my space. Why would I pay so much?
When you "activate" a plex (warp to it) a timer starts before it despawns. There is a lot of theory around how long this timer really is, but I have found it reliably to be 24 hours. If you do not complete the required assignment within a plex (hack the can, kill the guy, etc) the plex will remain for the full 24 hours. As a result the people who ninja these plex's effectively set the plex up on their schedule, able to return to it every 24 hours when it resets. Ok but why doesn't someone else reset the plex then?
You can't! Remember how Jim said the gates are unlocked? Well that is only partly true. The gates to ninja the exceedingly easy overseer who drops the high end loot are unlocked, but wait what about the gate in the last room? That is locked. What unlocks it? The key the overseer drops. So once the overseer has been ninjaed it is impossible for anyone else to finish and despawn the plex.
Wow that really screws all the explorers spend the next day scanning down this plex, huh? Yes it does, but it gets better. Why screw over just the explorers when you can screw over the booster manufacturers too!
Thats right the ONLY place in the entirety of EvE to get the vital advanced BPCs for booster production are safely locked behind that last gate. Wonderful, 2 whole groups are now up the proverbial creek.
It gets even better though. Lets turn this thing on its head and toss logic right out the window. You know how things are supposed to "advance." As difficulty gets higher rewards increase and so forth? Well not today my friend. Not only can you bypass the first room entirely, and you can avoid even being decloaked, the second room with the overseer with the best rewards is the easiest part of this whole thing! Even if you are part of the space holding alliance the only thing compelling you to actually run the whole plex is respect for your fellow prober. That second room has a value of 3-4 times the value of the rest of the plex combined! The last room which has 4 siege batteries and 2 stasis towers that insta agro in that locked room (so you cant warp out or call in reinforcements because it is a short timed gate that relocks and destroys the key)is often worth a big fat 0. Thats right the cans are usually filled with literally trash. Filler items that aren't worth anything, cant be reprocessed, and aren't used in any kind of manufacturing.
So lets give a big hand to the guy who designed this one. Get rich by screwing over as many people possible! Oh and if anyone else thinks that this is a little FUBARed I assure you this plex "is working as intended."
(So I may be getting a little irritated at this point as I sit here waiting for DT to end so I can get to this plex first and reset the clock to my schedule)
I thought you had an agreement with a couple of reds on this? They run the plex, loot, etc. and pay Pure. some flatrate amount of ISK as a "rental" fee.
Oh, and how is G5ED and the surrounding systems these days? :-)

Anybody know how the respawns on the Radar sites work now? I found a site just before DT, and then again about 6 hours after DT.

apparently its once a day now yet I cannot find the proff on the website and there wasn't even a patch for i, nor was it tested.
This is stupid because it was listed as not an exploit earlier and now they are calling it an exploit fine make it harder to complete but dont make it spawn once a day

Why bother running plexes yourself when you can gatecamp someone who did it for you? 
here lies what is essentially wrong with eve, always has been. dead before the screen loads.

If they did nerf this I am glad. It was way to easy for one person to get a foothold of one of these plexes, camp it, get alts to probe it ASAP, run it in a few minutes, and repeat. Way too much ISK for one person to be able to farm out like that. It's not fair that the plexes that I search for despawn and don't have any promise of respawning in the same constellation that I am in.

it was a terrible nerf, they need to figure out a better way of fixing it cuz now it just makes it easier for the raddians to take hold of it, always respawning right after downtime at the exact same time every day. Im not altering my schedual for a game so this just seems a bit unfair.

Can someone confirm if this is in fact been nerfed ? I have read the patch notes and there is no mention of any change to these plexes so was wondering if anyone knows for certain if this has been changed ? |

There is always someone with a smart comment. If you don't know then why waste your time and my time by posting ? And for your information I did find one of these plexes but it looks like what I am hearing is indeed true and the BS Spawn that drops all the deadspace loot has been removed so rather than me spending a lot of my time re-scanning this plex out I was hoping someone in the community would know the answer. |

Tho Lolsus Mihi thinks its great conspiracy and we keep in secret that you can get 7-14bil/day thus they are cyno jamming whole constellation.

IM not reading the 5 pages of replies but i have to say.
Great another section of the game I am effectively Locked out from! I'm not a member of any alliance that controls that space, would be unable to ninja my way in for long periods of time, and would be unable to get in before downtime to upset someone else's timer on it.
It does seem the more and more I play that there is an elit'ish section of the subscriber base that has taken a firm handhold on sections of the game and are reluctant to relinquish it. And while I can understand why, the game is designed in such a fashion that this is an intended aspect of gameplay.
So I chew on veldspar so that someone that spends 30 mins in a plex in an empty system, supported by towers that cost peanuts a day to maintain, can buy out weeks of my effort?
That sucks

No, you just dont want to commit or risk. I ran plexes in morsus/majesta/kia (and earlier tcf) space for 5+h per day and never got caught. And no i didnt have 1234124971 alliance mates to help me. My "plexing" team consists of me+ my alt (and sometimes friend + his covops alt).

And his Nyx pilot amirite!
Seriously though no one is locked out of anything just some have a slight advantage. TRI's plex running team in the north is almost as good as Omen's er everywhere.

His nyx was used for 2 plexes or sth like that. Doable w/o nyx anyways (just takes 60 minutes instead of 3 ;p).

I have a hard time believing this has been nerfed, as the Pegasus team of alts hasn't gone anywhere. (woman scorned, zorthal, kohzedub, taminier, etc.. )
There still here 24/7.. If its been nerfed, why still farm it ? Just for the booster stuff ? I have a hard time believing that... |

Just booster stuff - but still worth close to a billion ISK all in all.

Edited by: Calexis Corrino on 21/01/2009 02:00:46 These Plexes have been nerfed, no more overseer carrying deadspace loot. Digital Convulusion is hardly worth doing anymore, no one wants any of the boosters from that plex and the only chance drop that could make the time investment worth while is the neurotoxin recovery skill book. Thanks CCP for taking advice on exploration from people who havent even set foot inside a complex, scanning these sights out is no longer profitable. Empire carebears you should stick to handing advice out on your lvl 4/5 missions, and dont say that exploration in 0.0 is a easy/assured/safe way of making money... there is a reason why you stick to highsec.

The way I was explained it. Is that there's a commander spawn like 1 in 3 times now instead of everytime. I think these plexes are still dropping deadspace loot, just not every time now.... |
