fix roaming hermes (Shard missions)
yeh people power leveled off him (assholes). Now shard missions take a hell of a lot more time. unless your extremely lucky or an sd.
hermes roaming all around fixed one problem and created another from the same reason it was a fix, you would be very lucky to find him. i thought shard missions were able to be completed daily or something?
my suggestion is: -put him in a dead end gal which requires a neural key to enter (neural key obtained from previous mission in chain)
-instead of scooping last intel have a counter for needed amount of pretender guards kills and when u have done that hermes magically transports an intel item(s) to your ship.
-The gal will automatically boot you out, lock you out and require another key. (1 hr lockout)
this way the mission can be done as easy as it could be before AND no power leveling yay!

Re: fix roaming hermes (Shard missions)
This is what happened:
Some people found out that:
1. Hermes roamed a 4 galaxy area. 2. Poking Hermes regardless of having the mission or not spawned the guards. 3. The guards are level 2800 and gave exp equal to a level 2800 ai. 4. The guards were tagged as Bosses and therefore dropped DF400 DG loot. 5. The DG loot dropped was consistently worth 1b-30b.
So it got fixed.

Re: fix roaming hermes (Shard missions)
There's 2 spawns of him in the universe, and he wanders between DF 240 ~ 380.
I'll try and get a tracking mission tag for him by next uni, but I'm not sure how to do this given he's not a mission target.

Re: fix roaming hermes (Shard missions)
I've fucking searched gals over a hundred times for ELectric Eel, but still no sign of it. Give it sum proper place or few roaming gals, not just whole perilous map..!
