Standard Sleeper Cache: Difference between revisions

One alternative is to fit a Heron with a Medium Ancillary Shield Booster with Heron. However, buffer is what makes resistances worthwhile, as the damage has to sink into something, and frigates and destroyers don't usually have the native HP to tank damage without a buffer (something normally reserved for cruisers and above). Therefore it's easy for a lucky wrecking hit to alpha an insufficiently tanked ship off the site.

==Visual Reference==

Assuming basic T1 frigates and standard cruisers like the Stratios, the only option is to slowboat to the Spatial Rift inside the site, ignoring all else inside the site. The hazards include the large damage clouds and the distant Sentry Towers which can engage out to 250km. Cloaking is recommended to slide up to the Rift without taking long-range damage which can wreck plans without too much difficulty. The slow speed under cloak is the only annoyance but is mandatory because the Towers in the backline (and possibly one or two in the middle) require such an approach. There won't be enough time or tank to burn through 70km to the Rift.

Obtain all three coordinates. Place those three Coordinates (there should be X, Y, and Z Coordinates) into the High Power Calibration Unit can nearby. To do this, get within 2500m of the container (it looks like a jetcan), "Open Cargo", and place the Coordinates from your ship's cargo hold into the container. A message will appear onscreen to indicate success.

Activate the Spatial Rift.<ref>The reason for using the Spatial Rift is because simply burning 200km to the back room will not go unnoticed by the 3 Sentry Towers in the back enclave. At the distances involved, your ship's effective transversal velocity will be low. The Sentry Towers can strike out to 250km, meaning that frigates will be toasted before they even make it halfway. In fact, a frigate with a Microwarpdrive on when the initial alpha strike happens could be destroyed with a single hit. '''Also be warned:''' There is a hidden Restless Sentry Tower that can be activated by proximity to the Tractor Beam zone, right next to the Tractor Beam itself. It is activated by a ship being somewhere around 20km of that object, although the exact activation proximity is uncertain. This Sentry Tower is a duplicate of one that is activated by hacking the RDGU in the back enclave.</ref>

Hack the Remote Defense Grid Unit:  

::<span style="color:red">FAILURE:</span> The Alarm Level for the site is raised by 1 for each failure, or the alarm may trip. Messages in Local will track the alarm's progress.

'''If the Remote Defense Grid Unit was successfully hacked''', start approaching the nearby Sentry Gun while maintaining transversal velocity. Do ''not'' approach it head-on: manually pilot towards it at an angle. The Sentry Towers in the site fire once every 15 seconds, and skilled pilots can overheat their hardeners to mitigate damage further.

Once the Sentry Tower is down, which can take awhile (Sentry Towers have no shields, 40% armor resistances to all 4 damage types, and no resistances on structure), burn the Afterburner toward the middle area Restless Sentry Tower. Using the tactical overlay, head straight for the Tower until about 80km separates your ship from the Tower. Then begin spiraling in - if you do not spiral in, you will likely lose your ship. Shoot the Sentry Tower, which can be orbited at 2000m with the afterburner off to allow turrets to track more easily.

Refit for a Microwarpdrive and Relic Analyzer. Activate the nearby Rift again. Impenetrable Storage Depots should appear on the Overview. Approaching within approximately 10km of them will cause them to transform into either a Mangled, Dented, Pristine or Intact Storage Depot:
