Since the patch I think i've done in the region of 18-20 exploration sites. Usualy I have at least 1 in 4 escelate or give me a faction spawn, but since the patch i've not had a single one.
Am I just extreamly unlucky or has anyone else found the same since the patch?

I have done 22 sites and had only one faction spawn that dropped a decent item. Also the Radar site are dropping less for me but im doing all mine in low sec. Its prob just unlucky TBH

I do mine in 0.0 tho, where the odds have always been half decient. (and FYI just finished another with no escelation )

im always hesitant to say there has been a change after a patch because often it just seems like there has been a change when there hasn't.
however, saying that, ive been doing a lot of plexes recently, with few escalating.
for example, in the past when i did gurista military complex, on average 1/2 , 1/3 escalated.
recently i have done 6 in a row with no escalations. in fact some of the respawns dont give faction spawns when they pretty much did every time before.
whether ive just been unlucky recently, or there has been a change remains to be seen when the law of averages kicks in.

Bad luck. Me + LK had some escalations lately: guri military plex (Haruo one), guri fleet staging point (and we found like 10 total after patch). But even if they didnt escalate every one of them had DG spawn (total was around 20 DGs - but loot was crap anyways ;p). Plus ofc statics.

I found a decrease in sites spawning all together. I have been scanning the normal systems in 0.0 that I would scan and rarely have there been sites. Who knows if its related or not... just something I noticed.

Just scan in backwater systems. Main systems were like 1-2 sigs per 15-20 systems lately. I went to backwater area to scan - bam: 2-4 sigs per system in whole 10 system cluster.

I think the loot tables have changed to be honest. I usually don't like jumping to conclusions after a patch either.. But after 4 days of exploration, and getting 1 faction spawn that dropped tag/ammo, and no escalations from plexes that used to escalate what seemed like almost everytime, this kinda sucks ! It seems like my whole ****in 0.0 region is devoid of all sig's... 6 unknowns and 5 of them being drone sites... awesome... exploration is getting better and better let me tell ya !

Same question keeps popping up after eachpatch :)
Since QR we found more 6/10's, our 2nd 10/10, and had awesome drops, for the first time in months and months.
So yes it changed, for the better !
I *do* notice the sites are harder to find lately. Never had to probe for longer then 15 minutes for normal plexes (not DED) , drone plexes would give a result in 2 probes always, but now I have to scan for an hour most times just to find a droneplex. But this all is probably due to luck.

it's been disheartening... but out of 10 ded and escalation sites... i've had 0 expeditions and 0 faction loot greater than tags and ammo. Radar sites have remained consistent for me, but combat sites went into the crapper from my experience.
Could be the random number generator hates me... i'll keep at it. But if I don't see my luck turn around, i'll be haking my fist angrily.

I saw changes after the patch as well:
- escalation stopped without any notification: no dead end or other pop-up information window ... no bookmark - just nothing
- most escalation sites had a acceleration gate with few NPC's and almost all the time a faction spawn leading to the escalation site itself. After the last patch i get different behaviour! E.g. today: i warp to the bookmark under the expedition tab. i get to an acc-gate with faction spawn. i warp out of the system - change ship - go back to the system - warp to the bookmark under the expedition tab - i arrive directly at the escalation site - no acc-gate - no faction spawn (lucky my i made a bookmark of the acc gate and got kill may shadow serpentis BC ..)
so to me it seems that the bookmarking - dead space area thing is broken!!

I've been having problems where I'll get an escalation, and after I finish the 1st escalated part, my alt will get a pop up saying that I've gotten an updated mission objective but there wont be anything listed under the expedition tab. After the 24 hr window has expired, I'll have a failed expedition listed. I seem to be getting the same number of escalations as before though.

I experienced both those issues before the QR patch.
