Hey folks,
I've been running some null-sec Cosmic Sigs, the ones you probe down. I was just wondering if you need to kill every NPC for a site to escalate? For example running the Provincial HQ, I might kill the Faction BS and Station (the two triggers for an escalation) without killing the rest of the spawn, simply because my tank can handle it. Should I kill everything but the triggers first if I want an escalation?
And how about normal anoms you don't need probes for. If I remember right, these always escalate into DED plexes if you're lucky, but is it the same deal with having to kill every NPC before killing the trigger?
Cheers RRR

Trigger has got its name for something. You can get an escalation just shooting it if you are lucky. |

Most Cosmic Anomalies will have multiple 'Waves' of reinforcement NPC's. Each 'Wave' usually spawns after the destruction of the previous 'Wave'.
Some Cosmic Anomalies also incorporate a 'Trigger' to spawn a set amount of defending NPC's.
From my experience for a Cosmic Anomaly to escalate, all defending NPC's must be destroyed.

Not all of the ones you probe down require you to kill everything for escalation. Use Google and look up the site you are running. Much info already out there on cosmic signature combat sites. |

Many require you to kill a structure before they escalate.

You can also keep an eye on the scanner. If the site disappears from the list it has been completed
This is for sigs not sure on anomalies |

At least one type of anomaly (Forsaken Rally Point, 4 normal pirate races) doesn't require you to kill all npcs to get an escalation, as the escalation trigger is a cruiser in the (IIRC) 3rd Wave. I've been doing forsaken rally points and got the escalation while still having npc ships left to kill. |
