Relic and data sites: Difference between revisions

It should be noted that relic and data sites are also categorized into 5 different levels of difficulty, ranging from I to V. While a ship that is not bonus-ed to scanning can scan down a level I cosmic signature, even exploration-focused ships and fittings may struggle with level V sites.

Pirate relic and data sites can be found in all [[known space|normal space regions]], in C1, C2 and C3 class [[Wormhole space|wormhole systems]], as well as in [[shattered wormhole systems]]. There are pockets of space populated with a variety of cosmic structures (i.e., wrecked stations, abandoned machines) and several containers that need to be [[hacking|hacked]] before the contents can be accessed. The sites do not have any triggers or NPC defenders. Pirate relic sites contain T1 and T2 [[Salvaging#Uses_for_salvage|salvage materials]], skill books and [[Blueprints#Blueprint_Copies|blueprint copies]]. Pirate data sites contain decryptors, data cores, skill books, blueprint copies and manufacturing materials. The contents may vary by faction.

Drone relic sites spawn only in C1 - C3 wormholes and in drone regions: Cobalt Edge, Perrigen Falls, Malpais, Oasa, Kalevala Expanse, Outer Passage, Etherium Reach, and The Spire. This means that they are always {{co|wheat|Ruined}}, so Debris containers will not spawn. The naming convention for the sites remains identical to Pirate relic sites. Additionally, medium-difficulty containers are called {{co|#9ef37c|(Rogue Drone)}} Ship Remains, but they maintain the same difficulty level.

Drone data sites contain drone components and blueprint copies for [[Drones#Variants|' Integrated' and 'Augmented' drones]]. Each drone region drop blueprint copies for different racial drones: Kalevala Expanse and The Spire for Minmatar, Malpais and Oasa for Caldari, Etherium Reach and Perrigen Falls for Gallente and finally Outer Passage and Cobalt Edge for Amarr.

== Detected Sites ==

 

The Legion Expansion introduced Exploration Upgrades that can be fitted to Sovereignty Hubs. These upgrades spawn detected relic and data sites in a 5 jump radius of the system that has the Hub with the upgrade installed.

The detected sites that spawn have the same site name formatting as all the other pirate sites, but are prefaced with “Detected": Detected <Ruined/Central> <Faction> <Site Name>

The detected sites that spawn have the same faction as the region of space in which they spawn. This includes drone data and relic sites.

Completing a detected relic site has the chance to trigger an [[Emergent Ruins]] escalation. Completing a detected data site has the chance to trigger an escalation specific to them.

Sleeper caches are gated deadspace pockets with size limits for entry. Each sleeper cache has its own set of dangers. They contain a mixture of containers with damaging explosions on a failed hack, timed triggers, hazardous clouds, proximity explosions and sentry guns. For details see the page for individual sleeper cache.

Sleeper caches contain sleeper components, manufacturing materials, skill books and blueprint copies for polarized weapons.

Ghost sites contain Covert Research Tools, Villard Wheels, blueprint copies for 'Packrat' and 'Magpie' Mobile Tractor Units, ‘Wetu’ and ‘Yurt’ Mobile Depots and Ascendancy implants.

Sleeper relic and data sites are found in wormholes. They are not empty, instead, they have strong sleepers defending the site that need to be defeated before hacking.  

Sleeper relic and data sites can be identified from {{co|wheat|"Forgotten"}} and {{co|wheat|"Unsecured"}} at the beginning of their names. The combat in them is harder than in combat anomalies of same wormhole class and the rats drop sleeper components as they do in combat sites. They can be run as combat sites only looting the wrecks and ignoring the hacking part.

The silent battleground contains 20 relic and data cans scattered in 60 km radius, with no Sleeper rats present. It must be scanned down and requires decent skills to do so. Failing the hack twice does not blow up the can. The data cans contain data cores, and the relic cans contain T3 manufacturing components such as Intact Power Cores. Early reports suggest that this site operates on a timer and will explosively despawn after some time, though dealing no damage. This timer should be longer than 30 minutes. 3 hacking ships should be able to clear the entire site before this happens, however.

At the centre of the silent battleground is a wrecked [[Revenant]], suggesting an unexpected historical [[Sansha's Nation]] presence in these shattered wormholes. The wreck cannot be salvaged.

[[Contested Covert Research Facilities]] are hacking sites that may or may not be in the game anymore. They contain one hackable container. The site will self destruct and deal 2000 damage 45-60 seconds after warp-in.

* Emptied sites will despawn in few minutes. Sites that have been partially completed will despawn in a few hours.

* Sites with difficulty levels I and II should be scannable for any ship fitted with a core probe launcher, and a set of Sister's core probe scanners. However, as the difficulty level of the site increases, the minimum scanning strength required also increases.  

* Sites with difficulty levels III and higher normally need to be scanned by a scanning-bonused ship. However, some level III sites may still be scanned by any ship if it is fitted with a Sisters core probe launcher.

* Shattered systems can spawn sites of their own class and also one class higher or lower. This technically allows Ruined and Central sites to exist in a C4 system, since it can spawn sites usually only found in C3 space. However, shattered systems are rare, and all other C4 systems do not spawn these sites.

* C1 - C6 = wormhole system class

* Salvage. Type of salvage is based on the faction.

Each relic site in null security space/wormholes contains three different kinds of containers: Rubble, remains and ruins. These containers always have the same loot distribution without influence from the site type.

|style="text-align:right;"|Rubble&nbsp;|| 25% (3-20) || 5.5% (1-3)

|style="text-align:right;"|Remain&nbsp;|| 50% (5-40) || 12.5% (1-5)

|style="text-align:right;"|Ruin&nbsp;|| 0% || 25% (1-15)

For example, in a "Rubble" container each T1 salvage has independent 25% probability to appear in a stack of 3-20 units. Stack sizes are all uniformly distributed so a stack of 1 is equally likely to a stack of 14.
