* A data analyzer is required to access site rewards. The hackable key container is a 90 HP Red Core hack, the Security Vault in the second room is a 120 HP Red Core hack. (100 HP Firewall, 70 HP Antivirus, 70 HP Virus Suppressor, 90 HP Restoration Node). Tech II Data Analyzer and high hacking skills are strongly recommended. This site is not forgiving of piloting or hacking mistakes and should be given a wide berth by new explorers. | * A data analyzer is required to access site rewards.

* No combat is required, so exploration/covops frigates are sufficient to run the site. Covert ops frigates are the most optimal for this site due to 5 second cloak delay + covops cloak, plus the small signature radius and fast speed of frigates. You may run it with other ships but the cloak delay will be too long to attempt pulsing the MWD between decloak cycles without aggressing the NPCs in both rooms, and without a covert ops cloak the speed penalty will cause you to run out of time before the site despawns. Running the site without a cloak to begin with is impossible. | * No combat is required, so exploration/covops frigates are sufficient to run the site.

Careful manual piloting and avoiding reckless use of your MWD in the second room is crucial to survival, since one wrong move or a misjudged mine's danger zone will cost you your ship. It is a good idea to spend a minute or two to stay still and map out a path to the Security Vault in the second room before you make any moves. | ||
** If you are uncertain about the straight-line path between your ship and the containers you need to hack (or the gate) taking you into the path of a mine, toggle "Look At" on the hackable cans a few times. If your camera goes through a red sphere at any point as you are doing so, the path is blocked by a mine. | ** If you are uncertain about the straight-line path between your ship and the containers you need to hack (or the gate) taking you into the path of a mine, toggle "Look At" on the hackable cans a few times.

* All hostile NPCs in this site are diamond rats and are thus visible on the Directional Scanner. They will only spawn in once someone initiates warp to the site so a potential hunter might be able to tell if someone is attempting to run the site if the NPCs are visible on D-Scan and are lined up with the site. | * All hostile NPCs in this site are diamond rats and are thus visible on the Directional Scanner.

Note: the gate will be ~175km from the Key and you will be targeted by the Stasis Tower during hacking, meaning you can't cloak again after. '''Warping out of the site will cause the key to disappear from your cargo,''' so using fast ship with MWD (+ Overdrive Injector Systems to boost speed even further) to counteract the webifier is advised. The position of the mines around the Encrypted Key Storage is randomized between sites, but maintain the same position relative to each other. In other words, instead of burning to the gate to get out on one site, you might need to burn to the right or left on another. | Note: the gate will be ~175km from the Key and you will be targeted by the Stasis Tower during hacking, meaning you can't cloak again after.

The Stasis Tower | The Stasis Tower will web out to 250 km and will be 230-235km from the hackable container. Its AI is programmed to lock and web the nearest interactable object within its range, and will thus switch to webbing the container if it loses aggro on its current player target and cannot find another player within 250 km. Thus, if you burn more than 250 km away, the tower will not re-web you after you go back within range since it has switched to engaging the container, and you can burn to the gate normally and save significant time in the first pocket. Note that it will keep you yellow-boxed and thus still prevent you from cloaking. | ||
