| * '''[[Ghost Site|Ghost Sites]]''' (also known as "Covert Research Facilities") contain 4 data/relic cans to hack, which explode if the explorer fails the hack. Also, an invisible timer (about 2 minutes) starts on the first warp-in to the site, and once it is up, indestructible NPC rats will warp in, cause all cans to explode and shoot at the explorer for a while. Tanked cruisers or larger ships, or "egg-thief" (hacking only one can quickly, then leaving) tactics are recommended. Either analyzer (and its relevant skill) may be used for the hack. | | * '''[[Ghost Site|Ghost Sites]]''' (also known as "Covert Research Facilities") contain 4 data/relic cans to hack, which explode if the explorer fails the hack.

| === Combat sites === | | === Combat sites === |
| Combat site anomalies are ranked by difficulty into 10 levels/classes, and follow a naming scheme of {{co|#9ef37c|(faction) (anomaly)}}. Generally, the higher the difficulty of the site, the higher the rewards for completing it. Each faction's sites will only appear in regions where their rats are normally found (with the exception of Rogue Drone sites, which can appear anywhere). For example, the Heimatar region has Angel Cartel rats, and therefore only Angel Cartel and Rogue Drone combat sites will be found there. For a list of which pirate factions can be found in which regions, see [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/region dotlan].
| | {{main|Combat_sites#Combat_anomalies}} |
| | Combat cosmic anomalies are ungated pockets with multiple waves of rats. In addition to bounties they have small chance to escalate to DED rated complex or spawn a commander ship taht can drop faction items. |
|
| |
|
| The rank of the anomaly depends on the [[System Security|security status]] of the system you are searching in. Within [[high-sec]] (security status 1.0 to 0.5) the lowest third (in terms of difficulty/value) will be found. [[Low-sec]] (security status of 0.4 to 0.1) contains the mid third of them and the highest third will be found within [[nullsec]]. The anomaly names are identical for all factions with the exception of Rogue Drone sites, which also differ slightly in which classes of space they are found in.
| | Besieged Guristas Covert Research Facility is a special combat anomaly. They appear only in lowsec. The site has two waves of Mordu's Legion cruiser and battleship rats. They use missiles and will use different damage types to test your resistances to find the weakest one, in addition to tackling you with webs and points. Notable loot, some of it coming from the destructible structures (Guristas Research and Trade Hubs and/or Thukker Labs) which may be found in these sites, includes higher-end implants and ship [[skin]] [[BPC]]s, as well as some special module BPCs. |

| Some anomaly types may have more difficult variants (featuring elite/commander rats) in addition to the basic version, sub-divided into 3 more categories:
| |
| * {{co|#9ef37c|(Faction)}} Hidden {{co|#9ef37c|(anomaly)}} - easiest, but still harder than the basic version
| |
| * {{co|#9ef37c|(Faction)}} Forsaken {{co|#9ef37c|(anomaly)}} - middle
| |
| * {{co|#9ef37c|(Faction)}} Forlorn {{co|#9ef37c|(anomaly)}} - hardest
