Yes:

Basic Spawns: These spawns have a chance of appearing regardless of which tool you use.

  • Gang Members: Typically Blackwoods or Furies, you will encounter a wave of 3 one-chevron gang members equal to your level, then a wave of 2 two-chevrons equal to your level, then finally a single three-chevron that is two levels above you.
    • Loot: $info, code bits, code fragments, an Experience Code Amplifier, or a Portable Signal Booster.

  • Other Exiles: Like the gang member spawns, you may also spawn several waves of Exiles, usually Lupines or Blood Drinkers. They work much like the gang member spawns in which you will get several waves of enemies of increasing difficulty.
    • Loot: $info, code bits, code fragments, an Experience Code Amplifier, or a Portable Signal Booster.

  • Security Programs: Usually spawns Tactical Security guards. Works similarly to the previous two spawns.
    • Loot: $info, code bits, code fragments, an Experience Code Amplifier, or a Portable Signal Booster.

  • Low-Level Data Sentries: Spawns about a dozen Data Sentries or Data Simulacrum that are several levels below the player's level. They usually do very little damage and are easy to solo. They usually come in one single wave.
    • Loot: $info, code bits, code fragments, an Experience Code Amplifier, or a Portable Signal Booster.

As you can see they all have a chance of dropping the tool that increases xp (the Experience Code Amplifier).

Little consumables that give you 10% of the experience required to make the next level. Right click to use, find them in Data Clusters (see the Data Node guide), you can be any level less than 50.

On one of my lowbies, i'v had about 7-10 gang spawns and don't think i'v eva had an xp amp out of them SMILEY Had the sentry spawn about 4-5 times and had the xp amp bar once. So what I'm wonderin is, does the data sentry spawn increase the chance of gettin 1 or is it just purely random?

I found it was usually specific spawns (Data Sentries) giving the XP boosts when I was leveling on Syntax... tapping in different neighborhoods also seems to have a significant effect on what types of spawns you get, even when using the same data tap. There were some places in International where the XP amps flowed like honey.
