Winter Nexus

Winter Nexus is an event held from 5 December 2024 to 7 January 2025 (downtime to downtime) and includes Volatile Ice Storms which feature Wightstorm Sites, Login Campaign, and the Winter Nexus Agency Challenge,.

Login campaign

Capsuleers must log in daily for 30(TBC) days from 5 December 2024 onwards to collect all rewards. A total of ??k Skill Points are available to Alpha.png Alpha clone accounts, while Omega.png Omega clone accounts have access to an additional ??k skill points and ?? EverMarks. The big reward is on day 25, so even if you do not manage to log in for all 30 days, as long as you manage those 25 days you will only miss out on some Boosters and Ice Storm Filaments.

Volatile Ice Storm

Volatile Ice Storms have begun to appear across highsec, lowsec, and nullsec space. These ice storms spread out across the stargate network two jumps from a central system, and occasionally move from system to system just like metaliminal storms. These storms provide bonuses to ship thermal resistances and module overheating for all capsuleers flying within them.

Sansha's Nation and Outer Ring Excavations have both mobilized to take advantage of the novel forms of stellar ice found within these storms.

Ice Storm Filaments

Ice Storm Filaments transport capsuleers to a System affected by the Volatile Ice Storm.

Area / Ship Count 1 5 10

Icon ice storm filament nullsec.png Nullsec VXN-01N CMT-05N CPD-10N


Combat anomalies

Wightstorm combat anomalies have begun appearing within the Volatile Ice Storms. These sites are full of hostile Sansha's nation vessels, and CONCORD advises capsuleers to bring a battlecruiser or better when attempting to engage with these forces.

Wightstorm Forward Base

Found within storms that originate in highsec space appears to be guarded by the weakest Sansha fleets.[Verify]

Wightstorm Muster Point

Found within storms that originate in lowsec space appears to be guarded by the strongest Sansha fleets.[Verify]

Main article: Wightstorm Muster Point

Wightstorm Transit Site

Found within storms that originate in nullsec space appears to be guarded by intermediate strength Sansha fleets.[Verify]

Main article: Wightstorm Transit Site

Hacking sites

Wightstorm data signatures can be found within Volatile Ice Storms. These Sansha's Nation data sites require scan probes and data analyzer modules.
