|This is a storage site by the looks of it, possibly of Sleeper origin judging by the structures around. It is heavily damaged, as if someone - or something - was frantically and forcefully searching through the site, and quite recently at that. Dangerous gases and volatile materials are all around, so care is required in navigating this hazardous place.}} | |This is a storage site by the looks of it, possibly of Sleeper origin judging by the structures around.

To the far left of the site, there is one Storage Depot with an Active Forcefield Generator next to it. When a ship approaches within 10km of the Storage Depot, the Generator will spawn an EM Forcefield, which has a radius of about 14km and, which acts like a large bubble obstacle, preventing any ship from approaching the depot. The other Storage Depots around the site do not have this feature and can be hacked with the Relic Analyzer at any time without any specific concerns aside from AoE damage clouds and Plasma Chambers. For this reason, if the lone Storage Depot to the far left lacks valuable loot, it may be more convenient to simply skip hacking the Remote Defense Grid Unit, and instead just hack the other worthy containers. | To the far left of the site, there is one Storage Depot with an Active Forcefield Generator next to it.

Shoot the Large EM Forcefield, not the Generator, as the Generator cannot be damaged. The Generator will not spawn another Forcefield after the first is destroyed, so the container will be accessible once the Forcefield is destroyed. | Shoot the Large EM Forcefield, not the Generator, as the Generator cannot be damaged.

====Method 3: Ignore the Forcefield==== | |||
An exploration frigate fit with a MWD can simply burn straight towards the Dented Storage Depot, completely ignoring the Forcefield and Remote Defense Grid Unit. By the time the Forcefield activates, you will already be inside the sphere and can move around freely as long as you don't exit it. From here, you can hack the can in peace. This allows the can to be hacked with no risk of death from a failed hack, and without any DPS needed. | |||
