TripTik096 Expedition Highlights

Introduction

Visit all of the Combat Anomalies, present in each Drifter Hive (total of six per Drifter Hive), plus the Sister of Eve Flotillas.

Locations

K-Space Jovian Observatories seem to act as lodestones, drawing "Unidentified Wormholes" to their systems. These wormholes serve as artificial connections to the Drifter Hive systems. To locate one of the five hives, you need to carefully examine your overview.

A system containing a Jove Observatory has a chance of hosting one "Unidentified Wormhole", or occasionally two. These wormholes can be one of the following types:

  • B735 (a.k.a. Barbican)
  • C414 (a.k.a. Conflux)
  • R259 (a.k.a. Redoubt)
  • S877 (a.k.a. Sentinel)
  • V928 (a.k.a. Vidette)

To assess the different "Unidentified Wormholes", warp to 100 km of the hole and scan for hostile Drifter NPCs (known for being aggressive and highly territorial). A covert ops cloak is required, as Drifters may be present upon warp-in. Wait for them to disperse before approaching with caution. A mad dash across the final few kilometers to the event horizon is encouraged.

Once inside, bookmark your exit. You should be fine, but ensure you have probes and a launcher on hand as well.
