The Serpentis Logistical Outpost is combat signature that can be found in low-sec or null-sec, or as an escalation from completing the anomaly Serpentis Yard or Serpentis Rally Point. Technically the site is an unrated complex, but behaves like a DED 6/10 and thus can be considered the Serpentis DED 6/10. The site is located behind an acceleration gate that allows T2 Battleships or lower to access and consists of two parts: Part 1 is found by probe scanning or as an escalation. Completing Part 1 will always cause an escalation to Part 2 at another location.

Warning: The Serpentis Logistical Outpost and Serpentis Logistical Outpost Part 2 are considered to be the hardest Serpentis Escalations. Use extreme caution when completing the sites due to the Scramming Frigs and T2 Neuting Towers

Walkthrough

On warp in:

This is an A-Class repair and resupply post, operated by the Serpentis. Not only is it important to their operations, but has also been rumoured to be one of many hideouts utilized by their resistance movement. They are supposedly planning a revolt against the vicious oppression of the shadowy ruling body, the Furies, and will defend themselves and their compatriots with vicious resistance if attacked.

First Pocket

You land right on top of the frigates, which mean you land in web and point range. The rest of the NPCs spawn about 30km away from you.
