Hi,
Recently me and my friend got into an argument about the angel cartel naval shipyard. He says that we can scan the antimatter bs rat in the last room to see what kind of loot he has and if we are not satisfied, we can wait till dt when the loot changes. We can keep doing this until we get the optimal one we are looking for.
I never had an idea that scanning works anymore on npcs so i need some advice please. |

The drop or should I say what drops is totally random and is not in the cargo hold.

Drops are determined after the ship is destroyed, not before. Just like salvaging, hacking, etc. |

That's interesting because the NPC haulers in highsec can be scanned and do drop what comes up on the scan (or at least did a year or two ago when I killed them a lot)
I have never tried on a normal NPC though. |

It's been a while, but IIRC, loot in NPC rats showed up on scans and I want to say their loot amount was doubled (i.e. scan showed twice what was dropped.)
I could be miss-remembering though, but it's not like you can grab a scanner and a mission and test it easily enough.
You can tell me what is and isn't Truth when you pry the tinfoil from my cold, lifeless head.

This was the results of a Sansha rat I just killed.

I think the main problem you're going to have is someone else coming along and finishing the site for you. |

^unless it's an escalation
to the OP, this argument you had, was it your friend saying this can theoretically happen, or that he was doing it. |

I confirmed it twice now, those overseers can be scanned. It does shoe the accurate drop.
I never had the chance to check it after downtime if the loot has changed or not since the loot was good both the time i did and i dint have the patience to go through the whole thing again.
I'l update if i get some ****** spawn and if it changes after dt. |
