So if I understand this right. Once enough sites have been hacked the straight combat ones will be permanantly opened?
Will these be spawning in all space or just high and low sec? |

FYI I just hacked 3 separate sites in low-sec, all showed as a solid white diamond (unlooted) and needed a data analyzer to unlock them. For my glorious endeavors I was rewarded with... 3 empty cans. No loot in any of them. I assume bug?
Did the sites that refused to despawn yesterday lock themselves again after the downtime, but with no reseeded loot? That's going to make exploration really annoying... |

So much for smaller releases being more manageable |

The small releases actually start with Crius next month... although if the industry changes are released with Crius it will be a rather "large" release.

I am so confused. Is this happening to anyone else? Means it was probably already hacked and belongs to someone else, might want to leave the site before it goes boom :P
It means that you need to use a salvager module |

My little heron got destroyed by a site after just warping in and getting to orbit at 5km.
I have determine these site are not worth doing from sites not despawning to being completely empty to randomly blowing up.

I was JUST about to add to the discussion.. I lost 2 ships after scanning down these things. My first i just started to hack, then BOOM, the 2nd all i did was target it, and less than a min. later.. BOOM destroying that one. So you don't even have to HACK it for it to go boom. I wish i had known to start my reps before the 2nd went boom.

I am new player with less than 2 million SP. I am bleeding lSK now cause of these random explosions after loosing two sets SoE core probe launcher and core probes. I feel like I am playing an early access alpha game on Steam. |

Yes, I just lost 2 fitted Imicus for those sites. The first one I was hacking and taking my time, had not read anything about the explosion, and suddenly was in my pod.
The second time I just arrived at the site and was approaching, as soon as I got under 5km it exploded (before I started hacking anything). I was in the site for maybe 15 - 20s.
Still unsure how this thing works, what sets the explosion up, if there are timers involved, etc... |

Odds are the timers are similar to ghost site timers.
Seeing as the transponders explode, I've been using my ghost site format for hunting/hacking. It doesn't scan as quickly, but I won't lose a ship to them. Priano Trans-Stellar: elegant solutions for the State's needs. |

So. I've been hunting today, and have found three contested sites so far. Is it intended that some be empty?
One of the ones I'd found had existed before downtime, as evidenced by having its ident string share a pattern with the system's-- and it was empty. Alternatively, I'm wondering if persisting over downtime possibly scrubs the site's loot somehow. Priano Trans-Stellar: elegant solutions for the State's needs. |

Same thing for me today.. I didnt even fail. One of the sites had a valuable item in them" Data Sequence" after I cargo scanned. both sites did basically the same thing the second I tried to use the data analyzer BOOM. No warning, no fail from me, I didnt even get a chance to hack on the second one. The second time I fitted a heron with explosion resistances and shields etc.. did nothing.
I lost 2 ships today with at least 900 damage from the random explosion. If this isnt a bug its really really unfair. |

Might be interesting to take cruiser into one with explosive resists, and see how much damage is taken so that we can calibrate the amount of damage dished out. How many EHP v. explosive damage did your Heron have?

When tracking down "Contested Guristas Covert Research Facility" signatures, I keep finding hacked & empty cans, or sites that are simply empty.
I've been bad, and didn't file bug reports. I'll try to be good next play session. Day 0 advice for new players: Day 0 Advice for New Players |

Looks like the Besieged sites are showing up now (since yesterday?). Have to battle two spawns of 'mordus battleships' (which amusingly are both BS and Cruisers) to access the can and loot pirate faction paintjob bpcs, low-grade implants and other stuff.
It's good change to the 'be able to do sites in frigates' tendency - i have personally seen player wrecks in those sites, up to cruiser. And like the belt variant they web and point you, so you actually have to battle through the site in danger of sudden PvP from outside parties.
According to my reactive hardener they were doing a mix of kinetic and explosive damage. |

I lost a 62K ehp, 92.7% kin / 85.4% therm resist, covert proteus in a besieged covert research facility.
The sites seem to have two waves, the first wave seem to be 3 ships and the second wave 5 ships. The ships seem to be randomly picked, and are either cruiser or battleship, both cruiser can battleships can use 20km stasis webs and 40km warp disruptors. I had 4 battleships and one cruiser spawn in the last wave, but i suspect it's possible to get 5 battleships.
If you warp to the site cloaked, you will not spawn rats before you decloak, and the loot containers can be scanned with cargo scanners. The loot don't seem very impressive, i have only seem the new ship skins and covert research tools, which makes me think the sites might not really be worth doing when considering the risk. I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous. |

Unfortunately, yes. They are spawning left and right. When we first found one we were out in a little fleet and thought 'whoo these things are supposed to be pretty rare, right?' - then we found one in the next system, and one in the next after that, and so on. Them being anomalies doesnt make it any better.

Has there or will there be an update on this event anytime soon? Would also be nice to know what the heck these "Covert research Tools" are used for? |

Has anyone discovered any correlation to the when and where of the Mordu's Legion patrol appearances?
I know they appear in the LoSec belts, but is it completely random or is there some relationship to the "Besieged" or "Covert" sites?
