Elite Dangerous

so.... grid resistors...
I am in desperate need of grid resistors and I think the game is aware of that because despite searching high and low for the last month, i have seen only one drop at Dav's hope.

I have searched everywhere; USS, conflict zones, res, been to dav's hope more times than I care to admit and nothing.

Is anyone else experiencing this and/or can offer me some insight as to what I may be doing wrong? I have never had this much trouble finding mats before :(

Thank you in advance

I recently engineered multiple ships without having to search for any materials. Just visited the local friendly material and data traders and traded for everything i needed. Of course, next time i might not have enough to trade, but hopefully don't need to do more engineering for a few months... weeks.... meh, who am i kidding, i'll be back doing more engineering soon.

hahaha glad to know im not the only one who battles my own internal delusion when it comes to engineering lol
i stopped buying new ships for that exact reason haha

I have found plenty at CZs after battle is won.

Dav's hope will max you out on so many mats and it used to be where i went to get grid resistors but i have only seen 1 drop there in the last month and ive been there at least half a dozen times. I unpinned my blueprint thinking maybe that old myth had some merit to it but nooooo lolol

Thats the only method that i havent given a lot of time to. Ive made the effort after a few battles and found most of the items dropped were things i didnt need. I might give it another go since i need to do some combat anyways. Thank you!
