Engineers Mechanical Components

[Cosmos]

Is anyone else finding it hard to source these things? NPC traders seem to be playing in their own solo mode atm, so few about, even less seem to drop these.. Is it just me, or is the drop rate really low?

The easiest way is to go to an anarchy system and target Type-7s and Type-9s, as well as power play couriers.

In a less favorable odd, the Nav beacons can be helpful, you can drag security and bounty hunter for quicker execution.

Unless, of course you have any mats as cargo in your hold, as you be attacked in Rez zone or anywhere really.

Well the drop rate for me is atrocious.. And to boot there seems to be a serious shortage of trading vessels cruising around.

I'm also finding mechanical components extremely difficult to find and I've killed a fair share of T9s in combat zones. Quite annoying.

Actually found some.. T9s and T7s.. smaller trade vessels don't appear to drop them and after someone suggested it I went and murdered the wedding barge (something about that I like doing) ; has some nice drops.

its about the only thing i have got loads of , powerplay couriers, i think, as stated above.

Found about 5 of then floating around a high RES in Mehet yesterday.

I have the same problem after shooting 50 ships of t7 or t9 none is dropped for me

 

[sicksuntzu]

Camped 2 days for just 2 shooting, finally got mine from a hauler and a t9

They do still drop from traders, just not very often. Much more common than grid resistors though, in my experience.

I can't bring myself to murder innocent traders. You monsters. I have instead been getting by on whatever pops up as mission rewards.

you found tons of grid resistor in high conflict zone

Maybe we fly over to the Lakon shipyard. If we ask kindly, they might sell some before they plug them into these T9´s
