Desolate Site
Locating & Difficulty
- This is a type of hidden combat site found in high sec systems through exploration. Its gate allows ??? or smaller to enter. (Successfully entered with a cruiser).
First pocket
- Defenders: 6-7 Alvi type (Frigate), 2 Alvior type (Destroyer), and 5 Drone Harvesters.
- Reinforcements: Wave 1: 3-4 Alvi type (Frigate), 4 Alvior type (Destroyer). Wave 2: 3-4 Alvi type (Frigate), 4 Alvior type (Destroyer), and 1 Sentient Devilfish Alvi.
Escalation triggered after eliminating first reinforcement wave.
Loot
- Total: 1.2M
- Salvage: 814K
- Loot: 205K (Includes all rogue mineral drops at 100% refine, no taxes)
- Bounties: 0 (Remember they are drones)
Escalatation: Mare Sargassum
Stage 1: A few small drones, and one sentient drone. The escalation appeared after I killed a few of the drones - and before killing the sentient drone (timer?)
Stage 2: Similar to first, killing sentient drone first triggered escalation. There is at least one reinforcement wave.
Stage 3: Fewer rogue drones, and killing the sentient drone once again triggered the escalation. As a bonus, you get to see a great big red cube in space. The Borg turned more evil?
Stage 4: LOSEC (took me two jumps in). 5 small rogue drones waiting on warpin, and 5 "Drone Hold" cans. Completion popup happened after blowing up the first wave and starting to open cans. Two reinforcement waves later appeared, with a Rogue Mining Overseer dropping T2 salvage (as loot?). One of the Drone Hold cans contained some drone goo (Dark Compound, Condensed Compound), but overall fairly worthless stuff. Maybe I got unlucky?
