Killed bana PWI'd the 2k distance and there was nothing .. no credits .. no item drops anything.

This is not a radar problem I even switched to ping to make sure and PWI didn't fail so I should have been directly over loot.

Possibility of PWI fail I guess but Ping Radar refused to find it.

Yeah I have done bana about 70+ times now and out of all those runs I've only gotten like 2 jijis, maybe 1 or 2 bana kits, and a fuck load of station viii kits. I have ever gotten a 3 shot or a juju from my being able to do 4 lock outs in 1 day.

Also the loot that drops from high DF DGs has been greatly nerfed, and it pisses me off that a DF 375 dg drops complete shit after my billionth time doing it, when df280 DGs drop nice items consistently.

What the fuck is up?

Same old same old.

Once art and I did bana and he dropped a hestia aug and creds.

Love how smartphones make bana into nana.

The low df loot being Better has always been ridiculous and they will never fix it.

Off topic .. no CREDITS dropped either .. it basically imploded and nothing happened. I got lockout and everything.

I guess that's a good point: if she truly didn't drop even her commod then something weird happened. It sounds like some AI just scooped her loot though. :P

No way they scoop loot that fast lol, it takes a good 2 minutes to figure out they wanna scoop lol. Unless there is a code where if there is not a player around for a certain distance then they scoop loot..

Not if they dont have any targets and the items are scoopable :)

AI have never followed her 10-15k out. I PWI'd instantly upon death to where all the loot should have been yet there was nothing. It's a bug for sure, I was even uncloaked afterwards and nothing shot at me. Deffo wasn't the ai.

Are you sure your PWI didn't just fail, so you ended up like 4k from where the loot actually was and ended up missing it?

Background changed so it didn't fail .. why would it get me 4k away when I was facing bana queen on AP when I used it ? :P Deffo didn't miss it, I searched around for a good 5 minutes afterwards and switched to ping radar >.<

Nothing dropped!

Eh? When a PWI fails, it can port you up to 2500 distance in any direction. Meaning that if you started out 2k away, you could have been as far as 4500 distance from where you wanted to be when you first started searching, meaning there would be a rather good chance that you dont find it before it disappears.

Since when does that happen .. a PWI is usually used to escape, a 'fail' doesn't mean you still warp. All the fails I've had you simply don't move.

I still used a ping radar, shouldn't have missed the loot.

It's weird sometimes you don't move, sometimes you warp in wrong direction.

I've never had it fail like that. Ever. And even if it had I'd be what 4k distance from loot, I covered a full circle and went pinging around nothing dropped >.^ tabbed through everything in the galaxy, tossed an item and tried to find similar everything. IZ NO LOOT!
