Triglavian Invasion (Chapter 3): Difference between revisions

 

 

The 3rd and final chapter of the '''Triglavian Invasion''' was [https://www.eveonline.com/article/qaxqky/invasion-chapter-3-now-live introduced on May 26th. 2020]. It was a continuation of [[Triglavian Invasion (Chapter 1 & 2)|chapter 1 & 2]] of the Triglavian Invasion, and expanded upon and behaved differently.   

With the release of chapter 3 of the Triglavian Invasion expansion, the Triglavian Collective began a full-scale invasion of New Eden. Capsuleers could join up and fight for either the Triglavian Collective or for EDENCOM. Doing this would improve the player's standing with the side they helped, while lowering it with the opposing faction.   

Minor victory systems could be invaded again.{{verify}}

*For a overview of the combat sites in these systems, [[Triglavian Invasion combat sites|look here]].

The Triglavian Collective ships came in all sizes, from frigates, destroyers, cruisers, battlecruiser and battleships, with even Dreadnoughts being a rare sight in the advanced phases of the invasion.  

Triglavian NPCs in the Triglavian Invasion systems comes in three tiers:  

|Hospidar <role> <ship type>

The EDENCOM forces found and fought depended on what empire space the invasion is taking place in. In Amarr space the EDENCOM forces comprise of Imperial Navy ships, in Minmatar space they comprise of Republic Fleet ships, in Caldari space of Federal Navy ships and in Gallente space of Federal Navy ships.

capsuleers could join either side and help them establish a foothold. If either side succeeded in winning this phase, an industrial ship would spawn to anchor a Stellar Observatory Structure. The two sides then had to help either defeat or protect this industrial ship. If the anchoring was successful the system then escalated towards the next phase, being either a Redoubt or First Liminality.

* At 76% towards either side winning the invasion escalated. More roaming fleets and sites appeared . The additional sites contained both class 1 and 2 sites. If the system bounced from one side to the other, this happened twice.

''This system has been fortified by EDENCOM to the degree that is serves as a redoubt against Triglavian invasion operations. The Triglavian Collective will continue to strike against EDENCOM targets in this system''.

Should the EDENCOM forces achieve victory in this phase, it would further escalate into the Bulwark phase.

''This system has been fortified by EDENCOM to the degree that is serves as a formidable bulwark from which Triglavian invasion operations can be resisted. The Triglavian Collective will continue to strike against EDENCOM targets in this system''.

The invasion had not yet failed for the Triglavian and a concerted effort can manage to turn the tide, at the same time the EDENCOM forces have not yet won final victory and must remain vigilant. Should the EDENCOM forces manage to win this phase, a Triglavian Dreadnought will spawn which must be destroyed. When this is done the system is turned into a EDENCOM Fortress.

''The presence of Triglavian structures and forces in this system has built up to the point that it constitute a serious danger to the future of the system. EDENCOM forces will continue to strike against Triglavian targets in this system''.

When a Stellar Reconnaissance system was won by the Triglavian Collective, it escalated into the First Liminality phase. Here the Triglavians had the upper hand, but the EDENCOM side could still easily turn the tide. The system experienced a system-wide effect, as well as harder combat anomalies and roaming fleets.

Reaching the First Liminality phase reduced the security status of a system by an unknown amount and changed the system to work as low-sec.

The First Liminality further escalated into the Second Liminality phase. In this phase, the Triglavian Collective is close to achieving final victory. EDENCOM must double their efforts or risk losing the system.

 

Tougher combat anomalies and enemy ships will be present in this system.

- no [[Jump_drives#Cynosural_Fields|cynos]], [[Capital ships]] taking gates into the system or [[Propulsion_equipment#Micro_Jump_Field_Generator|Micro Jump Field Generators]] (aka booshs) if the system was originally [[System_security#High_security|Hisec]]

- no [[Tackling#Warp_disruption_fields|Warp Disruption Fields]] (aka bubbles) or [[Bombs]] (not to be confused with [[Smartbombs]]) if the system was originally [[System_security#Low_security|Lowsec]] or [[System_security#High_security|Hisec]].

As a system beganto lean towards either the EDENCOM or the Triglavian Collective, industrial ships for that faction appeared in the system. One of such industrial ships would attempt to put up a structure that applies a buff to all ships in the system.

Killing Triglavian rats would increase EDENCOM standing while reducing Triglavian standing by same amount. The same happened in reverse when EDENCOM rats are killed.<br>

During the Invasion, CCP stated that, should the Triglavian Collective succeed in their invasion of a system, it would have direct impact on that system and would have lasting consequences in New Eden.   

When a system reached the Final Liminality phase, the system was abandoned by CONCORD and EDENCOM, and functioned as an empire null-sec system. This meant no CONCORD response, but also no cyno or warp bubbles.

On October 13th, 2020, following a week of gate energy fluctutations and a day of gate network disruptions, all 27 Final Liminality systems had their gate connections severed, and linked together under a new region of Pochven. All stations were commandeered by the Triglavians, and their original agents removed. Station services and gate traversal require various levels of standing with the Triglavians, rewarding those who helped push the systems into their control. Access to and from the region was introduced through wormholes and special filaments.

Figthing for the EDENCOM forces would reward the capsuleer with ISK and DED loyalty points when a combat anomaly is cleared. Figthing for the Triglavian Collective gave slightly more ISK, but no loyalty points. Both gave a small standing increase with their faction and a standing decrease with the opposing. The standing gain depended on the invasion stage and site. In the reconnaissance phase, standings moved by 0.01% per anomaly, while in First Liminality the standing moved by 0.24% per observatory flashpoint.
