From EVE University Wiki
Created page with "{{Main|Homefront operation}}{{HomefrontOperationsLinks}} Homefront operations are Cosmic Anomalies in highsec that require a group of pilots covering specific roles from standard roles like DPS and logi to less common roles in fleets such as hacking and hauling. Each having its own scenario and requiring its own group composition and strategy. The acceleration gate on the entrance allows only certain types of ships depending on particular typ..."

The objective of this site is to destroy a single tower-like structure located at the center. At the start, the structure is either invulnerable or cloaked, and it only becomes vulnerable once three hackable arrays (data cans) are successfully hacked. Each hacked array activates a 90-second timer. If all three are hacked around the same time, this creates a 90-second damage window on the tower. Tower durability is estimated at approximately 337k HP.
The objective is to mine the central large asteroid, which contains one of five types of mutanite ore. This asteroid holds 3,500 units (14,000 m³) of ore, which can be sold to NPC buyers in the region for an additional 17.5 million ISK toward the group payout.


Standard procedure is for the logistics ship to take the acceleration gate first and draw enemy fire, followed by the mining venture. Once inside, everyone orbits the large asteroid at close range and begins mining. A TI hauler can also serve as a sixth fleet member, waiting outside the site to collect the mined ore once the operation is complete.


Be advised that enemy ships will aggressively target and destroy any drones deployed during the engagement, making drone usage a risky choice for capsuleers who rely heavily on them for damage or utility.

Using EP-S Gaussian Scoped Mining Laser in the Mining ships will preserve the full 3500 m³ ore as they do not apply any mining residue.<gallery>

=== Hostiles ===
=== Hostiles ===
A fleet consisting of frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battlecruisers will be present upon arrival. They will concentrate their fire on one capsuleer ship at a time, beginning with the first vessel to enter the site, and may periodically switch targets as a group. An exception applies to hostiles with the ''Infiltrating, Evader, Spinner or Insurgent'' prefixes: these will immediately target any drones that are deployed, but will revert to attacking the currently focused capsuleer ship if no drones are present.
A fleet of ±15 NPC's consisting of frigates, destroyers, cruisers, and battlecruisers will be present upon arrival. They will concentrate their fire on one capsuleer ship at a time, beginning with the first vessel to enter the site, and may periodically switch targets as a group. An exception applies to hostiles with the ''Atgeir, Smugglar, Corrupted or Wraithful'' prefixes: these will immediately target any drones that are deployed, but will revert to attacking the currently focused capsuleer ship if no drones are present.
