| − | DED (Directive Enforcement Department), the police enforcement arm of Concord, maintains detailed maps and reports on many Deadspace areas within the universe. Information from many of these reports is available to the public free of charge. A rating system is used to determine the danger associated with each complex. This rating is used to determine both the dangers involved and any restrictions on certain ship types that keep them from using the acceleration gates.

| |
| − | You can view the locations of 3/10 to 10/10 complexes as reported by DED by doing the following:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Access your Map via your Neocom, or by pressing the F10 key
| |
| − | Ensure Star Map is selected on the upper-right hand corner of the screen
| |
| − | In the World Map Control Pane,' display window that appears click the Star Map tab
| |
| − | Click the ‘DED Deadspace Report' radio button
| |
| − | The stars should change color to reflect the type of Deadspace areas within a system. When a colored star is highlighted, window appears with information about the system and the complexes inside it. Choose a system with a Deadspace within it and warp to it.

| − | ==How do I Find the Deadspace Complex within a System?==
| |
| − | | |
| − | To get to a Deadspace complex, it is most common to first find its celestial beacon and warp to that. In some cases, as with 1/10 and 2/10 static complexes since the [http://community.eveonline.com/news/patch-notes/patch-notes-for-retribution-1 Retribution update], if it does not have a celestial beacon, you will have to probe for the entry point.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To be able to see the celestial beacon in your Overview, you must have Beacon selected as an object to be seen:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Click the triangle icon next to the word Overview just above the table where targets appear
| |
| − | *Select Open Overview Settings
| |
| − | *Under the Filters tab, select the Types tab and expand the Celestial folder
| |
| − | *Make sure the box next to Beacon is checked
| |
| − | *Right click the Beacon icon and warp to it to get to the entrance of the complex. Once you arrive at the entrance, you may need to approach an acceleration gate and activate it to move to inside of the complex itself.

| − | ==What do I do once I Enter a Deadspace Complex?==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Once you arrive at the complex, you will receive an incoming message to give you some information about the complex and its difficulty level.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some complexes are very challenging and can not be completed by a solo player.
| |
| − | At this point, there may be a need for combat as well as determining how the next gate may be activated. Gates are generally activated with a key, passcard or cipher, which are often well guarded for dear life by an overseer for that Deadspace pocket. Keys may be found within an on-site structure, such as an asteroid colony or a control tower (normally located centrally in every Deadspace pocket); you need to blow this up and loot it. Or, the key may simply be stored in a secured and guarded container. Keep in mind that not all gates need keys, and in those cases you need to try them out and see what they require (if you don't meet the requirements, you will receive notification).
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Warning: The keys needed for some gates may be single use only, and disappear from your cargo hold once used. This means that you should enter the complex fully prepared, as you can't come out to restock on ammunition, or to come back with a salvaging ship. If you wish to take a fleet through such a gate, then everyone must be present and ready to activate it after the person with the key, in the short timeframe that it is unlocked.

| − | ==What Do I Gain?==
| |
| − | | |
| − | First of all, there is a lot of money to be made through Deadspace complexes. Inhabitants of the complexes often have generous bounties on their heads, which are automatically deposited into your account once they are eliminated.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Secondly, the Deadspace complexes are exciting for those wanting to fly around on their own, as well as for those that find most comfort in spending time and excitement with a gang or even a fleet of allies.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Thirdly, Deadspace often harbors secret laboratories, supply depots, shipyards experimenting with new equipment, and vessels fitted with or carrying enhanced equipment that can be looted.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Also, at the end of each Deadspace complex there is an overseer who has personal effects that may be looted. These personal effects may be sold on the market for a profit. CONCORD is especially interested in purchasing any overseer personal effects you may encounter in your travels.

| − | So, in Deadspace, you will find money, excitement, valuable loot, and maybe even more...

| − | There are certain restrictions on what you can do inside Deadspace areas, these restrictions apply to most but not all areas. For example most of these rules do no apply to Factional Warfare areas.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *You cannot activate MicroWarpdrives in some sites, though Afterburners work fine.
| |
| − | *You cannot warp between points inside the Deadspace area. However you can still warp out from Deadspace area.
