On warp in, the following message is shown: Little is known about rogue drones except that they are aggresive and highly territorial.
Locating & Difficulty
This is a complex that can be scanned down with scanner probes, and can be found in low security space. Its signal strength is high (20%), making it easy to scan down.
The site is a deadspace pocket accessed through gates. Access seems restricted to battlecruisers and below.
