Cosmic Anomalies and Cosmic Signatures(Exploration Sites) are both part of Exploration in EVE. The difference being that Cosmic Anomalies require no special skills trained to find or complete them and they do not appear in Deadspace zones. Cosmic Anomalies are generally regarded as the easier form of Exploration and suitable for even the newest player to try their hand at.
Cosmic Anomalies contain NPC rats or Drones. These site are not a difficult as their cosmic signature counterparts but can have rich rewards as well. They have different difficult ratings, getting increasingly harder the lower the security status of a system.
How to Find Cosmic Anomalies
Cosmic Anomalies can be found by probing (Scanning) them or by using your onboard scanner.
To find these sites, you simply warp to planets, initiate the scan, and warp to any results. Cosmic Anomalies are designed to appear within 4 AU range around planets. Fly to Open your onboard scanner by pressing CTRL+F11, select the "System Scanner" and press the "analyze" button tab(you may need a few goes to pick up the harder ones, possibly 10 or more times). When you have found an anomaly warp there or create a bookmark of its position. Once an Anomaly has been completed it will disappear after some time.
These sites can also be found by probes, and are very easy to scan down as only one probe is required and it will always return a 100% signature.
Difficulty and Classification
Anomalies are ranked in difficulty by 10 levels, these are:
- (Faction) Burrow / Drone Collection (lowest)
- (Faction) Hideaway / Drone Cluster
- (Faction) Refuge / Drone Gathering
- (Faction) Den / Drone Gathering
- (Faction) Yard / Drone Surveillance
- (Faction) Rally Point / Drone Menagerie
- (Faction) Port / Drone Herd
- (Faction) Hub / Drone Squad
- (Faction) Haven / Drone Portal
- (Faction) Sanctum / Drone Horde (hardest)
The rank of the Anomaly you could find depends on the security status of the system you are searching in. Within HighSec (Security Status 1.0 to 0.5) the lower third will be found, LowSec (Security Status of 0.4 to 0.1) contains the mid third of them and the higher third will be found within NullSec.
