Locating & Difficulty
- This is a type of hidden combat site found in high sec systems through exploration.
Cruiser or smaller to enter acceleration gate.
First pocket
- Defenders: 6-7 Alvi type (Frigate), 2 Alvior type (Destroyer), and 5 Drone Harvesters.
- Reinforcements: Wave 1: 3-4 Alvi type (Frigate), 4 Alvior type (Destroyer). Wave 2: 3-4 Alvi type (Frigate), 4 Alvior type (Destroyer), and 1 Sentient Devilfish Alvi.
Escalation triggered after eliminating first reinforcement wave.
Loot
- Total: 1.2M
- Salvage: 814K
- Loot: 205K (Includes all rogue mineral drops at 100% refine, no taxes)
- Bounties: 0 (Remember they are drones)
Escalatation: Mare Sargassum
Stage 1: A few small drones, and one sentient drone. The escalation appeared after I killed a few of the drones - and before killing the sentient drone (timer?). Strain infester alvi warp scramble/web.
Stage 2: Similar to first, killing sentient drone first triggered escalation. There is at least one reinforcement wave.
Stage 3: Fewer rogue drones, and killing the sentient drone once again triggered the escalation. As a bonus, you get to see a great big red cube in space. The Borg turned more evil?
Stage 4: LOSEC (took me two jumps in). 5 small rogue drones waiting on warpin, and 5 "Drone Hold" cans. Completion popup happened after blowing up the first wave and starting to open cans. Strain Splinter drones can warp scram and web, they should be priority. Two reinforcement waves later appeared, with a Rogue Mining Overseer dropping T2 salvage (as loot?). One of the Drone Hold cans contained some drone goo (Dark Compound, Condensed Compound), but overall fairly worthless stuff (Confirmed).
No gates on any of the escalations, and the entire chain was easily completed in a cruiser.
