Serpentis Narcotic Warehouses is a DED Rated combat site belonging to the Serpentis Corporation pirate faction. It can be found via exploration by scanning signatures in high security and low security systems or by getting escalation from Serpentis Hideaway and Serpentis Refuge. Cruisers (and their Tech 2 equivalents) are the maximum ship class allowed to enter the site. Completing this complex may award the player with valuable Coreli A-type and Shadow Serpentis faction modules, as well as a Daredevil blueprint copy.

On warp in:
This deadspace complex was built by the Serpentis Corporation to protect and store narcotic and military supplies for their members. The complex also acts as a temporary storage area for the corporation's traffic of illicit substances. While the entrance check-in sectors of the complex are not known to be heavily guarded, certain sections house experienced security staff using top-of-the-line equipment funded by the Serpentis Corporation's income from illegal activity.

DED Threat Assessment: Unsafe (3 of 10)


Walkthrough

The Serpentis Narcotic warehouse consists of total of five deadspace pockets. Due to branched nature only four of them need to be entered to get the final reward.

First Pocket

First Pocket
On warp in:
The entrance pocket of this complex contains light peripheral security around the advent ware storages. Two acceleration gates give way to two different routes inside the complex, one leading to the check-in tunnel and the other to the more heavily defended security corridor. Visitors are cleared by security at the Traffic Management office, allowing members of the Serpentis Corporation access to the Check-in Tunnel.

Fastest way through this room is to use Traffic Management Passkey to jump into security corridor ignoring all the rats in the room. If you do not have the passkey already it can be looted from the traffic managment structure. The passkey is not consumed.

The Serpentis Supply Stronghold is a smoking wreckage, and its administrators are dead, cloned or on the run. There is now little left in the area except the quiet ruins of past criminal activity.

Loot

The main attraction of this site are the Coreli A-Type modules. They are the strongest modules of their size and this is seen in the price. Occasional Daredevil BPC is nice bonus.

It is also possible to get faction modules from the overseers but this is very rare.

Escalation

This complex has a chance to escalate to another instance of itself. It is believed that this can happen only in narcotic warehouses gained as an escalation from an anomaly.

No Escalation message
The trail seems to run cold at this point.

If the Narcotic Warehouse was an escalation, the failed escalation message is:

Failed Escalation message
The Serpentis Supply Stronghold is a smoking wreckage, and its administrators are dead, cloned or on the run. There is now little left in the area except the quiet ruins of past criminal activity.
