Mya – 2025-11-04
Issued: 2025-11-05
Analyst Source: System Mya kills analysis (2025-10-28 → 2025-11-04)
Summary
- Threat Level: Thread‑Level 4.0 — High Volatility. Mya is an active hunting/staging system with both highly capable solo hunters and at least one coordinated, high‑tier PvP gang.
- Primary danger: a mix of deadly solo hunters (capable of cruiser/battlecruiser kills) and a separate high‑end gang capable of Black Ops / carrier‑enabled ambushes. Also present: opportunistic gankers preying on haulers and new players.
- Peak activity: EU → US prime (15:00–22:00 UTC). Spikes on Friday and Monday (note an early‑morning cluster Monday 08:00–09:15 UTC).
Key Named Threats (observed)
- Ronen Uitra — Loki / Hecate operator. Deadly solo hunter. Assume hostile intent on contact. (Real Thread Level 4.5)
- Unattributed "Praxis kill" gang — Redeemer (Black Ops), Nidhoggur (Carrier), Loki, Arazu (Force Recon) present on a coordinated Praxis kill. No alliance/corporation attribution in the data; gang demonstrates cyno/capital deployment capability. (Real Thread Level 5.0)
- Dejan Estemaire & Serqet Daphiti — Raven / Legion duo; high sub‑capital strike power.
- Nhimyk — Nemesis / Tornado; cloaky/ambush attacker focused on soft targets.
- Znuts Aurgnet — Proteus used against industrial targets — shows willingness to use expensive ships on easy kills.
- Drifter event: Drifter Battleships destroyed a Loki during the period. Drifters are an environmental wildcard — instant, lethal escalation if engaged.
Observed Target Profile
- Soft targets (haulers, Ventures, Imicus, blockade runners) are heavily hunted.
- High‑value engagements include subcapital strategic cruisers and capital/black‑ops presence — Mya can be a staging point for sophisticated PvP.
Tactical Advisories (rooted in observed behavior)
- Avoid transit and operations in Mya during peak windows: 15:00–22:00 UTC (especially Friday and Monday). If you must operate there, do so outside these windows where possible.
- Do not solo in expensive subcapitals in Mya. The system contains multiple pilots/gangs capable of soloing or quickly overwhelming lone ships (assume Loki/Hecate solo hunters and guaranteed death from the high‑tier gang).
- Hauling and industry: treat Mya as hostile ground. Avoid hauling high‑value cargo through Mya during peak times. If transit is unavoidable:
- Travel in small convoys or fleets rather than as lone blockade runner/Viator trips.
- Minimize exposed cargo (split cargo across runs), and consider using covert/capable cloaky scouts for checkpoints. Note: blockade runners and blockade‑class haulers have been targeted.
- New pilots and miners: avoid surface operations (mining/belt ratting) in Mya during the observed periods. Multiple attacks were on Imicus/Venture/Tayra hulls.
- Scout & engagement discipline: assume cyno/capital support is possible. Before committing to any fight, perform thorough D‑scan and directional scanning; be ready to disengage instantly if asset signatures consistent with carriers/black‑ops/force recon appear. If you detect a Force Recon or carrier class within system, treat the situation as immediate high risk and warp off.
- On encountering Drifter forces: do not engage. Drifters are uncontrollable and lethal; break contact and warp to a safe celestial immediately. The Drifter incident in Mya showed they will kill even a Loki quickly.
- Fleet composition & fittings:
- For transit operations: favor fast‑aligning ships, warp‑out rigs, and fits that permit quick disengage.
- For those willing to contest: bring backup and tackle/heavy EC/pointing options. Solo tackle is risky given the number of high‑value attackers observed.
- For haulers: fits that improve warp exit and align (mid slots for propulsion modules), and consider using a covert ops or a cloaky scout to check gates and cyno signatures first.
- If bait/chain tactics are observed (small fry fights clustering into traps): do not hotdrop solo to assist unless allied backup and scout confirmation of safety exist — the data shows chain engagements and follow‑up drops.
Operational Indicators to Watch For (based on observed modus operandi)
- Loki + Hecate in system = high likelihood of mobile solo hunter activity.
- Arazu / Redeemer / Nidhoggur signatures = treat as immediate capital/cyno threat (assume gang can bring heavy force quickly).
- Nemesis / Tornado pilots in system = cloaky ambush risk to soft targets and stopping runs.
- Repeated quick kills on capsule/frigate chains early morning or late night can be bait for larger follow‑ups — exercise caution when small fights start.
Conclusion
Mya is not a safe low‑sec transit or farming system for solo or lightly escorted operations. The combination of high‑skill solo hunters and at least one capability‑rich gang (black‑ops + carrier) elevates risk to subcapital and industrial pilots. Plan operations around the clock and behavior patterns documented above; when in doubt, avoid the system during prime windows and do not assume a fight you start will remain small.
EIN Status: High risk — proceed only with informed mitigation and sufficient backup.
