Has anyone noticed a drop in the spawn rate of Steam-Pinnaces near London since the update this morning? Or is it just me? I was running a brisk business plundering those things for 100 Echoes; now I can only seem to find them further away from the docking point.
Also, the drop from 100 Echoes to 50 Echoes for successfully sending them back to London = boo. Boooooo. More balanced and reasonable and smart, I will grant, but boooooo.
I understand, even if I hate it. I was majorly abusing that, doing a circuit of about 3 every time going FL—>Tomb-Colonies —>Phosphogene—>Hunters Keep—> FL with extremely low Terror gain and about ~200 echoes profit each run. Not great money, but reliable enough if you have high Mirrors/Iron.

On the plus side, the same situation shows up in later ports, with enemies who give way way better rewards. Just gotta get out of doing the early game loop ASAP.
