Next to local chat and Mumble, D-Scan is your best source of information about who can blow you up. It's a complicated tool that has it's own [[Directional Scanner Guide|guide]] and classes. D-Scan is basically used to identify ships around yours. It can be used to roughly pinpoint where other ships are, as well, by narrowing down the angle at which you scan. While local tells you what players are nearby, D-Scan as telling you what ships are nearby. You should leave the D-Scan window open at all times and scan often to not be taken by surprise.

* Not all ships on D-Scan are being piloted. If an empty ship is located inside a POS shield, it will show up on D-Scan. | * Not all ships on D-Scan are being piloted. If an empty ship is located inside a POS shield, it will show up on D-Scan. | ||
* Cloaked ships do not appear on D-Scan. | |||
* If you notice "Sisters Core Combat Scanner Probes" or "Combat Scanner Probes" on D-Scan, someone is trying to scan down ships. Be very cautious if you notice these probes on D-Scan. If the player using them finds your ship, he can warp an entire fleet on top of you. Ask in Mumble if the probes are one of yours, and if they're not, it's a good idea to get out. At the very least, align to something and be ready to warp out at a moment's notice and pay close attention to your overview. | |||
