Diminishing returns

[bobalonius]

This past Sunday I had a pretty nice run through a RES bounty hunting. I did it again Tuesday, it wasn't quite as good, but still a nice run through. Tonight I went back again and all I was seeing were low bounty Sidewinders. Does this mean I've driven off my prey and need to move on to fresher hunting grounds? Or did I just have bad luck tonight?

If after 10 minutes all you see are small ships, FSD out, immediately loop back and drop back in. It will reset the instance and hopefully this time you get the juicy "always 1 wanted anaconda around" instance.

There has been a marked decline in the number and wanted rating of Cobras at RES areas.

Last week I was raking in the profit, but all I find there now are Sidewinders.

It would be good to get official feedback on the perception of hunting grounds drying up. Do we need to move on or is it purely random?

I always see the opposit. After vaporizing small ships in the first minutes, usually the bigger fishes spawn in the next. I'm mostly around nav points though, dunno if it matters...
