Winter Nexus

Winter Nexus is an event held from 15 December 2022 to 03 January 2023 (downtime to downtime) and includes Volatile Ice Storms which feature Wightstorm Sites, 13 Days of Nexus Login Campaign, the Winter Nexus Agency Challenge, the Yoiul Chilling Spree, and Yoiul Festival-themed Abyssal Proving Grounds.

Login campaign (13 Days of Nexus)

Volatile Ice Storm

Volatile Ice Storms have begun to appear across highsec, lowsec, and nullsec space. These ice storms spread out across the stargate network two jumps from a central system, and occasionally move from system to system just like metaliminal storms. These storms provide bonuses to ship thermal resistances and module overheating for all capsuleers flying within them.

Sansha's Nation and Outer Ring Excavations have both mobilized to take advantage of the novel forms of stellar ice found within these storms.

Ice Storm Filaments

Ice Storm Filaments transport capsuleers to a System affected by the Volatile Ice Storm.

Combat anomalies

Wightstorm combat anomalies have begun appearing within the Volatile Ice Storms. These sites are full of hostile Sansha's nation vessels, and CONCORD advises capsuleers to bring a battlecruiser or better when attempting to engage with these forces.

Wightstorm Forward Base

Found within storms that originate in highsec space appears to be guarded by the weakest Sansha fleets.

Wightstorm Transit Site

Found within storms that originate in lowsec space appears to be guarded by intermediate strength Sansha fleets.

Wightstorm Muster Point

Found within storms that originate in nullsec space appears to be guarded by the strongest Sansha fleets.

Hacking sites

Wightstorm data signatures can be found within Volatile Ice Storms. These Sansha's Nation data sites require scan probes and data analyzer modules.

Wightstorm Comms Relay

Wightstorm Strategic Node

Wightstorm Crypto Facility

Mining sites

Volatile Ice Field anomalies can also be discovered within Volatile Ice Storms. These fields of newly discovered stellar ice have recently been captured by ORE and Mordu's Legion forces who have driven away the Sansha harvesting fleets. These ice fields can be accessed through a special ORE-commandeered acceleration gate that only allows medium and small mining and hauling ships to enter (Expedition Frigates, Mining Barges, Exhumers, Haulers, Blockade Runners, Deep Space Transports, and the Porpoise).

The volatile ice found within these fields cannot be reprocessed by standard facilities, however Outer Ring Excavations has set up mobile ice collection operations within each of these ice fields, and is willing to trade with capsuleers who contribute to their mining operation. Capsuleers can trade seven units of volatile ice with the ORE representatives in the ice fields to receive a package of valuable salvage and items that ORE forces collected from the wrecks of Sansha ships.

Rumors suggest that other valuable Sansha salvage has frozen directly into some of the ice chunks and can be occasionally picked up along with the ice by normal mining activities.

Fading Volatile Ice Field

Fresh Volatile Ice Field

Friable Volatile Ice Field

Yoiul Chilling Spree (Daily Campaign)

The Chilling Spree will offer up Skill Points for hitting fellow capsuleers with snowballs daily!

Abyssal Proving Grounds

If slinging snowballs at each other isn’t enough, you’ll also be able to go nose to nose with your fellow capsuleers in dedicated Abyssal Proving Grounds events, themed around the special Ice Storm environment! You’ll have new opportunities to overheat your modules for longer and get a bigger speed boost from afterburner modules too! 

Timeline
16th December - 19th December Yoiul 1v1 T1 Cuisers
30th December - 2nd January Yoiul T1 destroyer 4-player free-for-all
7th January - 8th January 2v2 Battleships arena

Note: The battleship 2v2 will feature a repeatable challenge that grants 100 million ISK for doing 10,000 damage in the arena.

Special game mechanics

All of these proving events will feature a special set of environmental effects that increase afterburner speed bonuses by 100% and reduce heat damage suffered by overheating modules by 50%.
