Evanescent Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Did nothing, Still rare as all hell. No drops here, after 60+ scans. I give up. I'm sorry, I can't access a chunk of anticipated content. I'm just bummed out. I'm sorry. I give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnThade Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Damn, your RNG is S#&$. Sorry. After the change took me about 15 runs to get 10 genetic codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XtheMATTx Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Do it in a group of 4.. its not worth doing solo. Solo you get like 4-5 kavat spawned in a mission In a group you get 10-15 spawned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AutoPhox Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I feel ya OP. Im at 57 scans. 30 from before the hotfix. I have 1 g-code from that. havent seen one since. ugh. I bought 10 from the market to build the segment because 50p is worth that, but i wont be buying more. I guess getting a kavat will be a long term goal.

They can drop in the same mission scanning kavats, I ended up with 2 BPs of it after about 250 scans, and I still ended up buying genetics because I only had 7 by the end of that, so forked out 3 more to build the segment then 10 to incubate a kavat.

PrivateRiem Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I think DNA are more likely to drop in a squad. From what I've seen, if a party member scans a Kavat and gets a DNA, any other party member scanning that Kavat will also get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangkrik Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Don't ever do it solo. Far less kavat will spawn in the mission. Don't give up. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Featherstone Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Just one question, what are you scanning them with, and if you're scanning them with the simaris scanner, have you reached your daily limit yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky5hift Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) I've had far better luck after this hotfix, getting all 10 DNA within 20 missions. Pretty good considering before you could literally do 50 or 100 or even more without getting any. Edited July 12, 2016 by Tricky5hift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i.chit.you.not Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) 257 scans for 18 dnas (147 scan before 100% drop incrase and 110 after) - broken as poop so let see over 40 keys used resource wise 6500 credit x 40 = 260,000 2500 nanospore x 40 = 10,000 5 coordinates x 40 = 200 750 salvage x 40 = 3000 80 circuits x 40 = 3200 40 mins to craft keys + (5-8 minutes each run x 40) = 360 minutes = 6 hours ==> at this point the time/resource spent isnt worth it, i'll just buy 2 remain dna from market and stop all my kavat scan activities Edited July 12, 2016 by g4yb4ll number change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo you get like 4-5 kavat spawned in a mission In a group you get 10-15 spawned. This. I was afraid that double the drop chance wouldn't be enough but averaged about 2-3 codes per grouped run. I managed to get a few solo but the spawn rate isn't high enough. Also capture missions seemed to be a good idea since lots were spawning there.

MobyTheDuck Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 120 scans, only 7 codes. That was after they 'doubled' the drop rate. I guess I'm waiting until they fix the drop rate again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have faith and run those derelicts! :P I did 262 scans to get 11 dna samples b4 the update. After the update i did 50 scans and got 10 i'm seating on 21 dna samples. So already have my cat :D Max runs without a sample 3.B4 I would say about 12 runs without a simgle sample.All solo max kavats spawned in a mission 6.Edit: On extermination missions.

Cmdr-A Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 The hotfix has actually been a lot better now. You must be having serious bad rng now. I've gotten a few key runs that haven't gotten any codes, but generally I get at least 1 at the very least. Have gotten where i've gotten 3 + It also helps if you have the scanner widget for double scanning. That can really help boost getting multiple gene codes at once.

ALEKS_D_RAVEN Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 after patch i`ve got 10 DNA in 3 derelic extermination, but after that none have dropped( 6th mission and still nothing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maicael Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I've only gone on one solo capture mission so far. Did maybe 3 or 4 scans and got 2 Genetic codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toppien Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 i just gave up, XD farmed relics, sold prime parts, and some corrupted mods since i did the scans solo (got just enough gene prints go build the segment) any ways, i got enough plat to buy a starter kit and i got exactly the kavat i wanted :D with the traits i was looking for XD i guess the RNG gods felt petty on me...

Nesodos Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 i got 2 dna out of 3 derelict missions today thats a total of about 10 kavats (damn you cat slaying grineer!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syln Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Most efficient way to farm a kavat ; sell a bo prime or whatever > buy 10 DNA :p (and yes i agree the droprate is absolutly ridiculous, it's like having to farm for 10 kubrow eggs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They frustrate the jhack out of players, hoping that their impatience makes them buy for plat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
