Hey Dex, I've just reinvented myself as an alpha after 15 years of playing and I've made 700m in 3 days. These whipper snappers don't know how good they've got it!

Loved the video as always! Ever since I first used the cargo scanner I've loved it, now I refuse to fly an exploration ship without one. Mainly because it makes my playing more fun, I would always get so mad when I blew up boxes without scanning them because I hated not knowing what was in them. Now with the cargo scanner I'm chill whenever I blow boxes, that I'll even blow up the worthless ones to respawn the sites. Whenever I actually scan a valuable box, seeing the number is just what I need to not hack like a complete baboon. As for the warp core stabilizer I personally don't fly with one because I like to be able to lock things from far away. But every time I get caught by an astero, I wished I had one, I would like to hear your opinion now that you've flown with it as an active module. Sorry for the mini essay IGN: Tension Travis

I love the mini essays!! TBH I haven't had to use the WCS yet..... I wouldn't have it one there now it is active and limited by it's cycle, better to avoid getting tackled in the first place, and also maintain lock range and drone capacity too.

The cargo scanner is a valuable asset if you want speed over ISK. The sites don't despawn if too many containers are unopened. Not really sure how the mechanics work, but I'm confident there is a fixed number of sites per region/system/constellation etc. My scanning ships mostly don't have any utility slots fitted. Occasionally a Fireworks Launcher, just for the fun of it. IGN : Spectral Spectre

Hey Mark, you inspired me to give something similar a go, though I'm still hanging out in low-sec and practicing the techniques and getting screen layouts sorted, D-scan habits in place, etc. Having a great time, and it far beats the mining and mission running that I was doing. I made about 100M in the first day of play. Love your explanations and the videos - please keep up the season! IGN - Fjern Minearbejder.

Data sites are generally still significantly better than relic sites in low sec in my experience. It seems to only be null sec and wormholes where that really flips. A note on hacking: The tool slots are bound to the keys 1, 2, and 3, so you don't have to move the mouse off the board and then back to activate them, saving time and letting you focus on the board more.

I think that relic sites are more boom or bust which is why they aren't very good in high sec but way better in Null and WHs. Whereas data sites (excluding ghost sites and event sites) are more regulated making them better in high sec. I think the sites are about equal in low sec but I haven't been in a while.

Great addition to your content. I have went to wormhole space twice and left with 50mil + each time. I am going to go back and watch the original van life content then tweak my fit from your recommendations in this video. I honestly let the unknown and fear of gankers keep me out. Low sec is where I made my ISK after watching your videos. Some people seem to have a pre-thought out hack like staying to the outer edge and heading to the farthest point from your start then looking for the system core. I didn't feel like that was your approach. Would you comment if you have a pre-planned approach? Huge fan of exploration so I can't wait for the next few videos. IGN: Airistin Northgate

Thanks mate. When it comes to hacking I just follow the number and never click a lit node unless there is no option as they are 50/50 a bad result. I know there as systems such as the 'rule of 6' that some use but i find using that slows me down and does not guarantee results. I am certainly happy with the results I get with the alpha fit/skills and it is mostly data boxes i blow up and they are got generally great in the WH due to only using the relic hacking rig.

I like using a sub 2sec align Atron with cargo expansion rigs for diving in and out of LS/NS to retrieve low mass stuff bought of the market for cheap. Regarding staying 'safe' in WH's as an Alpha you can fit the Heron with the 'poor man's cloak' fitting double signal boosters and ECM script's which make you 'almost' impossible to scan down with combat probes (scanner needs implants to do it)....at least that was true once upon a time.......might be a good thing to see tested out on the channel Dex!

For me the exploration is fully focused on Relic sites. If it turns out that there are lots of sites in the system and I've already scanned down a Data site, only then I'll run that site. Some of the Data items are worth a lot, though most of the Data sites are disappointing. Sleeper caches and cover research complexes are some splendid bonuses when scanning everything down. If you like to hand out those nice Prowler skins, I'll gladly accept. IGN : Dianera Dragosha

Even though I'm omega I still prefer to use my trusty rusty (Probe) T1 exploration frigate. It's so cheap I don't mind if I lose it! In hisec, data sites are much better than relic. Lately I've seen some 20m cans in normal hisec data sites - better than ghost data sites and a LOT safer. On the other hand, in J space I think relic sites are better, but it's pretty random.

Yep, data sites occasionally drop molecular condensers and decryptors worth a few million. 20M ISK sites aren't all that uncommon, and I've had one or two dropping nearly 50M in high sec. With high sec relic sites, you're usually looking at a million or two total at best, often *a lot* less. I've seen 10M (when you get things like Intact Armor Plates), but those are so extremely rare that they're not worth hoping for at all.

3:40 Yeah, the relic sites in high-sec are not worth much, I've stopped running them and don't carry the relic analyzer anymore (this with my Hawk I spoke about in my comment on your previous video, and a new Jackdaw I'm running in Minmatar space this week for the event (doing the hacking event sites plus any combat anomalies I'm running into (destroyer to battlecruiser size sites)). Love this very much so far. Question: does the data (and relic) sites reset at downtime? (or despawn/respawn). At the moment, I don't care too much about going into an empty can (I don't have the cargo scanner on the Hawk/Jackdaw), and I do hope it just help to despawn the site so that it can respawn a new one somewhere.
@TeaDrivenDev

From my observations, sites from both signatures and anomalies do generally do not despawn at all until someone actively completes them. I've seen some of the less desirable drone sites stick around for a few days in a more remote high sec pocket, with people only coming in occasionally to do the good stuff like DED plexes, but leaving the lesser sites behind. I don't expect that behavior to be any different for the hacking sites.
