Mya – 2025-10-19
Date: 2025-10-19
Severity: HIGH — Miners & industrials are primary targets; combat ships also engaged.
Summary
- Mya has experienced a measurable uptick in persistent, competent hostile activity. Average threat ~3.5/5.0. Miners, MTUs and solo industrialists are being actively hunted; combat ships are not safe.
- Peak windows (observed): Weekend mornings 08:00–12:00 UTC and evenings 18:00–22:00 UTC. Weekday activity concentrates in afternoons 13:00–17:00 UTC.
Observed high-risk actors (operating patterns)
-
Boruet Annages — real_thread 4.8 (Assassin/Hunter)
- Ships: Orthrus, Nergal, Ikitursa. Solo or small‑gang operator; engages combat ships and structures.
- Immediate risk to all ship classes. Assume rapid, skilled aggression.
-
Ronen Uitra — real_thread 4.5 (Industrial Hunter)
- Ships: Loki. Targets Retrievers/Covetors and destroys Mobile Tractor Units.
- Extreme risk for miners and haulers; Loki denotes adaptability and range of tactics.
-
Dejan Estemaire — real_thread 4.2 (Combat Support/Brawler)
- Seen with Boruet; Ikitursa presence implies coordinated heavy or logi support.
- Treat as dangerous when detected alongside other flagged pilots.
-
zethixx — real_thread 3.5 (Solo Interdictor/Hunter)
- Ship: Pilgrim (force recon/ew). Covert EW capability; can neutralize targets before reaction.
- Expect electronic warfare and stealthy interdiction.
-
Simon Aurio — real_thread 3.0 (Scout/Harasser)
- Ship: Astero. Cloaky scout role; often first contact for larger gangs.
- Presence often signals follow‑on threat.
-
php3ch0 Isu — real_thread 2.8 (Support/Secondary DPS)
- Ship: Loki (support role). Enhances small‑gang lethality when present.
Tactical recommendations (rooted in observed behavior)
- Avoid peak UTC windows for vulnerable ops (mining, hauling) where possible. Weekend mornings/evenings are highest risk.
- Do not operate lone retrievers/covetors in system during peak times. If mining, prefer tanked barges, use mobile forcefield/remote bookmarks and minimize MTU uptime (MTUs are being destroyed).
- Fleet up for industrial work — small gang presence significantly raises survivability in this environment.
- Pre‑align, bookmark safe spots, and keep a clear warp path. Have an immediate warp destination ready; treat any sudden local increase or cloaky ship as hostile.
- Fit defensively: industrials — warp core stabilizers where feasible, tank and propulsion rigs; combat ships — appropriate EW resistance, point/warp disrupt countermeasures.
- Be especially cautious if you see Pilgrim, Astero or Loki hulls in local — these indicate cloaky/EW scouts and a high chance of coordinated action.
- If engaged, prioritize disengage and pod survival; these actors show capacity for decisive follow‑through.
EIN Note: Threat composition and timing are derived from recent killmail patterns. Capsuleers operating in low‑sec Mya should plan ops assuming the presence of the above pilots and adapt accordingly. Stay vigilant.
