The DEV`s will hate what I'm about to tell you:

Im gonna see what Cargo the local ships bring in to local station...
Took a long time to learn not to shoot screaming eagles ships, must not shoot Pirates of Gandii ships or station will burn my ship...


Awesome Idea, did not do that. Ice-Rings are not hot, but metallic ones are VERY hot in Gandii when in Boom... and even in None its still "okay" to hunt there...

This one got leeched empty in about 10 Minutes... Poor NPC shockfreezed when i deployed Hardpoints. Got my Hatchbreaker in his Belly while poppin those wannabe NPC Pirates around us. When nearly empty, another T7 came in to serve me. Was a feast...

So what are te factors apart from the low res? Is there a hotspot that overlaps the res??
Well, a lot is factored in:

■ Anarchy
■ High Pop
■ Industrial (ONLY Industrial)
■ Metallic Ring
■ lowRES inside that metallic Ring

Those are either YES or NO. They need to be all YES. Then, smaller things also definde the Loot Table for different things. This System favours heavyly Platin.

■ As a Bonus i would say it is good to have
Short travel Time between Mainstation and hunting Grounds so that you can check Missionboards while naturally dropping of stolen Platin and rearm. Also pristine/major reserves is a plus. It is not a joke when i say that i robbed AND mined at the same time -> T7/T9 Hatchbreaker, target the Rock it is mining, Prospect, mine that Rock too (your Collectors start collecting its and yours Fragment ((yes, you can also steal mined Fragments when carrying a Refinery) with your left mouse, and with your right mouse you spam hatchbreaker at the targetted T7/T9 so mine and pirate at the same time for a little Plus but its traded for a more relaxed playstyle).

The Reason why it HAVE TO BE LowRes? Well, first go Low, then go High and you will see that you cant do over there. Basicly all NPC have PDT, some multiple, you wont get a single Drone in. Whatevery youre doin, you can not protect your T7/T9 enough. It will get shot. In LowRes on the other hand, almost no ships have PDT. and the spawnrates for Miner are just a bit weaker. Just a bit. And if you find your lovely T7/T9 you can just desitegrate everything that is looking at you. Often the T7/T9 just sitting there so you can tape your right and left mousebutton with Ducktape while making a Sandwich. Ive never done that.... really...

And remember this is Anarchy, HighRes here feels like HazRes elsewhere. LowRes is just the best Result by a mile and a half.

Stations drop table is way to random its got access to rarer drops but its to wide No T9s likely due to not passing the population tier level system so T9s jump else were...
Tritium, palladium, Agronomic treatments, show up... so can be good but to random...
But its lower tier compared to McArthur City... if you have fleet carrier ( If only they would stop crippling LTD demand one day. )

Well i just had a few Ships that run LTD/Plat (and of Course single Digit Stuff from all over the Droptable), all of them Medium Ships (Asp and Stuff like that) but hej, 6x20 is the same as 2x60. But i have a D rated scanner just for Science not for robbery. So i should probably engineer myself a proper T9 with A-rated Fastscanner so i can make a lot of Traders naked and check the average Numbers over a few Days. Or i go out and drink. Im not sure yet.
 
Time to try my corsair/commerce raider Clipper for the first time. I was inclined to keep that kind of shady stuff for eventual BGS purposes (I'm not really a pirate I guess 😄 ) but it will do.

Oh, and plenty of Corporate/Dictatorship local factions, those will make perfect targets 👌
 
Just perfect... Ringpiracy, Stationpiracy, Megashippiracy... all in one System. I want to buy a House or two here. Will do a lot of Vacation in Gandii...
 
I'm actually currently doing this, just for fun you understand, no hope of getting rich(er) from it. It really is quite fun, between raiding the miners and fending off the other pirates who want your stuff. Fun. I need to revise my loadout somewhat though, as I just threw some modules together on my Cutter and am using that.

I've done this sort of thing before, but I recall FDev removed all ships carrying LTD's way back then. Literally, I went from hunting ships and getting some LTD's for my effort, to not getting any in hours. Really glad this is back. Plus there's more to it than simple piracy as you have the other pirates to contend with.
 
What happens when every fleet carrier in the surrounding systems show up there?
If this takes off it will put excess server load on the single system file and cause excess in "orange sidewinder and CTD reports", means more work...
Theres still the old ways if that system dies..
