The Hunt (2020)

The Hunt is an ingame easter event that runs from April 6th to April 21st.

Egg hunt

Colorful Guristas capsuleers spawn all around New Eden. These capsules are located on random celestials such as planets, moons, asteroid belts and stars.

When killed the capsule will drop a Hunt Acceleration Gate Key and ocasionally DED Informant's Frozen Corpse.

The key is needed for accessing the final room in event sites.

Guristas Hunt Outpost

Guristas Hunt Outpost sites appear everywhere in New Eden. The site appears as a combat anomaly in probe scanner. Once warp to the site is initiated the site will also appear as a beacon on the overview revealing to everyone that someone has warped to it.

Only T1, faction and T2 frigates and destroyers can enter the site.

The site consists of two deadspace pockets behind acceleration gates.

In first room five waves of frigates, destroyers and occasional cruiser will spawn. Once all waves are dead the acceleration gate to last room becomes active. Sometimes the acceleration gate becomes active before the last wave.

Accessing the final room requires a Hunt Acceleration Gate Key. The gate does not stay open for other people for 10 seconds after activation like other locked gates do so everyone who wants to enter the final room needs their own key.

The final room has single Guristas Automated VHF drone, VHF-21 (Kinetic/Thermal + Alpha Explosive) or VHF-08 (Kinetic/Thermal + Alpha EM). This drone drops the valuable loot.

The site can be completed in a destroyer tanked against Kinetic/thermal damage.

But take care, All frigates "Not the Bantam" warp disrupt/scramble, stasis and neut, the Automated Drone in last room too. In first room, theres the npc who deal others damages than kinetic and thermal. Hunt Griffin deal Explosive damages and ECM, Hunt Kestrel deal EM damages, Hunt Bantam Remote Repair, Hunt Blackbird deal massive Explosive damages and ECM, Hunt Caracal deal massive EM damages
