Trouble in Paradise is a four part expedition that can escalate from the Hierarchy combat site. The four parts are each about 5-8 jumps apart, and can take you far from the starting point. The rewards can be worth it though. The rogue drones in these combat sites do mostly explosive damage, with kinetic a close second. They are weak to EM damage.
First Location
Access: Gateless, Open Access
The Sentient is the trigger for the escalation and contains loot. It is spawned from the beginning. This part can be blitzed by destroying the Sentient fast.

This battle obviously took place only few minutes ago; smoldering wrecks litter the battlefield and as far as you can tell there are only drone wrecks aside from the destroyed ships. After a short while your scanners identify the ship that was calling in assistance and, surprisingly enough, its navigation module is still mostly intact. From the ship logs you learn that it was a part of a force designated to contain the threat posed to its hive from another strain of drones of a different hive. The newest log entries reveal that this ship was sent, together with a few others, on a sabotage mission and were supposed to blow up an array of moon harvesters and silos at this location. |
Second Location
Access: Gateless, Open Access
Same as before, the Sentient is the trigger for the escalation and contains loot. It is spawned from the beginning. Can also be blitzed.

The onslaught finally subsides when the last transports disappear into warp with their valuable cargo. Your instruments have no problem tracking them to their destination. However, the amount of contacts showing up at the resulting coordinates is suspiciously large. |
Third Location
Rats are at warp-in. The Sentient is the trigger for the escalation and contains loot. It is spawned from the beginning. Additional rats seem to spawn after a timer.

Escalation Message |
---|
Beating this hive makes you almost feel like disposing of the first one was more a mercy killing than anything else, as it would never have been able to keep up the fight with this one for long. You have never seen or heard of a drone hive of similar strength or scope and you hope you never will again. |
Fourth Location
Unable to finish site in ship I was in -- Kelon Darklight 2 May 2021.
- initial spawn
A 2nd wave spawned when attacking a frigate, which forced me off in a Vexor Navy Issue -- User:Kelon Darklight 3 May 2021.
Rats at warp-in. 2nd spawns right after you spawn. Attack once 2nd spawn, attack once 3rd spawn. Hive Mother Appears.
