This article should be cleaned up or improved.
The reason is: Walktrough is not an effective name for a variant. "Walktrough" and Abandoned Station look, apart from the usual randomness and a "missing" wave, pretty identical. It would be nice to have a way to rapidly identify the variations.

Drone Patrol is a combat anomaly found null-security systems across New Eden.

Before hacking and slashing, beware that there are three versions of the site, and the spawns may vary considerably. There is at least one version of the site that is considerably more difficult than what is listed below!

Walkthrough

The site consists of one ungated pocket. There is an Abandoned Station about 3 km from warp-in and around 30-40 Ship Debris spread around the pocket. New wave spawns once ships from previous spawn are dead. Some of the frigates scramble and warp disrupt.
