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 |
|---|---|---|---|
 Highsec |
DSHR-01H | DNCR-05H | PRNCR-10H |
 Lowsec |
DNNR-01L | BLTZN-05L | RDLF-10L |
 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.
