Anarchy Chem Manipulators Nerfed?

[AlexLar]

Hi All,

Been attempting to farm the above (chemical manipulators) for two days with limited success. It would appear the traditional seek Anarchy/Famine worlds then attack the T9s at the collection/dispersion point no longer exists. There are simply no collection points at the three worlds meeting the criteria (re Famine and Anarchy) to take advantage.

My only success has been chance USS wreckage.

Anyone have any additional helpful knowledge they would be willing to share?

Thanks

I've heard that they are easy to find around the mega ship near Fisher Terminal in Okinura. No killing T9s required. I've been out in Colonia myself so haven't had a chance to verify. Apparently it works like this: Pin the blueprint. Visit the mega ship, scoop Chemical Manipulators. If you don't see them just relog until you do.

Search anarchy systems in outbreak for convoy beacons. Kill the t-9's.

Search anarchy systems in outbreak for convoy beacons. Kill the t-9's.

This is how I have always done it.
Be aware that not every Convoy Beacon will be populated with ships.
Also, sometimes (in random instances) there is an escort wing flying with the convoy. Usually easy pickings.
Filter the Galmap for Outbreak. Hover mouse over everything to search for Anarchy. The game will not allow you to filter both at once.

Here, I found one:

High sec system's USSs - been looking for them myself. Got a lot of convoy beacons, but then a few degraded emission USSssss with chem manips amongst the wreckage. Not a great hit rate, but I've got 12 for an hours tooling around.

I dont know if this has changed but you can farm Chemical Manipulators at this planet base. Do a circuit collect the materials, log out and log back in and more materials will spawn, rinse and repeat until you get as many as you want.

Farmed about 20 of these in about 30m when i did it a few months back.

Thanks everyone, lot of effort too. Very grateful.

FixMeNow's suggestion is the fastest and you get other mats there too. Forget about T9 hunting.

Jaiotu's suggestion is much faster and is only 100ly or so from Farseer.

Anarchy and Res sites work also like a charm. Hurts reputation but who cares as long as there exist no karma system

This. You can have over 100 in a hour

The main faction has to be in famine state for it to spawn properly FYI , so if it's a low rep faction who has only a small newsstand on a planet and in famine state, no chemical manipulation I'm afraid.

I can confirm. Just did this two days ago. Much faster than Dav's Hope.
