Elarel – 2025-10-23
ELAREL — SEVERE THREAT ADVISORY (Everyshore — Low-Sec)
DESIGNATION: SEVERE — EXTREME CAUTION ADVISED
Overview
- Elarel is currently a concentrated hunting ground for experienced capsuleers. Multiple high-damage, ganking-focused pilots have produced repeated ship+pod kills across daytime and nocturnal UTC peaks. Treat the system as a hostile kill-zone.
Top 6 Threats (summary)
-
Serqet Daphiti — Abaddon — Threat 5.0
- Highly active; late evening (21:00–22:00) and early/mid-morning (04:00–10:00). Rapid alpha strikes; warp out immediately on sight.
-
Kaitlynn — Praxis / Abaddon — Threat 5.0
- Midday–mid-afternoon (12:00–17:00). Multi-ship ganker; targets shuttles, frigates, capsules. Do not engage.
-
Cailin Dioltas — Manticore — Threat 4.5
- Stealth-bomber alpha strikes against miners and small explorers (08:00–10:00, 13:00–18:00). Mining is especially risky.
-
Dejan Estemaire — Gnosis — Threat 4.0
- Targets industrials and transports. Appears as part of coordinated ganks; avoid hauling operations.
-
Kayla Starchild — Pacifier — Threat 4.0
- Short, high-damage bursts (18:00–19:00 window). Ventures and miners are prime targets.
-
Cadhla Dioltas — Garmur — Threat 3.5
- Fast, missile-focused frigate; dangerous to medium combat ships when encountered.
Key Patterns
- High incidence of capsule sniping: attackers frequently follow through to destroy pods.
- Consistent activity across multiple UTC peaks (early morning, midday, and evening).
- Attackers use high-alpha setups capable of killing targets before effective response; CONCORD (or local law enforcement mechanics) is not a reliable deterrent for these tactics.
Immediate Recommendations
- Avoid Elarel whenever possible. Reroute to safer systems.
- If transit is unavoidable:
- Use nullified haulers (Blockade Runner) or T3 nullified transports where possible.
- Fly cheap/exppendable ships — assume loss of ship and cargo.
- Consider "pod express" only if you accept increased pod-loss risk.
- Keep local open, maintain active D-scan, and warp to bookmarks/safe spots at first sign of profiled pilots or multiple unknowns.
- Cease mining, exploration, and routine hauling in-system until threat posture changes.
Final Note
This advisory is based on observed kill patterns and actor profiles. Treat Elarel as hostile and plan operations accordingly.
