Line 175:

Plexes come in three sizes, the bigger the more victory points naturally:

* Novice~~, 10min countdown, 10km~~ radius, ~~ships allowed: industriel,~~ frigates (no Noobships)~~, the~~ NPC ~~spawned will be a frigate~~

{| class="wikitable"

* Small~~, 15min countdown, 20km~~ radius~~, previous + assault ships/T2~~ frigates and destroyers, NPC ~~spawned will be a destroyer.~~

|Type

* Medium~~, 20min countdown and~~ 30km radius, all previous + T2 cruisers and battlecruisers~~, will spawn a cruiser~~ NPC.

|Countdown

* Large~~, with no acceleration gate and thus no ship restriction, (hot-dropping titans please here ;) ), will spawn a~~ Battlecruiser NPC.

All plexes are defended by NPCs of the faction that is currently holding the occupancy of the system. The difficulty ranges depending on the size and they respawn after a while.

Line 263:

Note: No rewards are gain for offensive plexing in vulnerable or lost systems.

LP rewards for defensive plexing are given at a reduced and variable rate:

* LP Gain = Base value of plex * (Contested percentage of the system/100) * 0.75

This means that the higher the contested percentage of the system, the higher the LP reward given, up to a maximum of 75% of the base reward value.

Line 278:

Defensive plexing can be done against higher number of opponents if you stay close to the beacon and hide between your faction navy NPCs.

The internal plex spawning mechanism keeps track of the total plexes within a constellation (see also the FW maps) and due to a DT mechanism the ~~likelyhood~~ of plexes spawn after DT is a bit higher. Enforcing focus to a certain constellation will thus result in a slightly higher efficiency in accumulation enough victory points to make a control bunker vulnerable.

Enforcing focus to a certain constellation will thus result in a slightly higher efficiency in accumulation enough victory points to make a control bunker vulnerable.
