EIN-Advisory — Elarel: Active Battleship Predators; Do Not Transit Soft Ships (Oct 19–25, 2025)

Overall Threat Level: 3.5 / 5.0 — Significant Risk (Active Predator Environment)

Executive summary

Elarel is being actively and repeatedly exploited by a small set of highly committed predators. Battleship-class ganking (Abaddon, Praxis) and heavy cruiser activity (Gnosis, Proteus) make the system hostile to non‑combat traffic.
The single most dangerous actor is Serqet Daphiti (Abaddon). Soft, low‑mass targets — shuttles, capsules, and common haulers — are being hunted aggressively and should be considered near‑certain losses if transiting the system during observed activity windows.

Confirmed threat actors (observed)

Serqet Daphiti — Abaddon — Kill count: 20 — Tactical risk: 5.0 (primary capital-class predator; gate/station camper)
Kaitlynn — Praxis / Abaddon — Kill count: 14 — Tactical risk: 4.5 (heavy-hitter; concentrated activity on Oct 21)
Dejan Estemaire — Gnosis — Kill count: 4 — Tactical risk: 3.5 (opportunist against haulers)
Cailin Dioltas — Manticore — Kill count: 2 — Tactical risk: 3.0 (stealth bomber threats to single targets)
Michel Ferran — Proteus — Kill count: 1 — Tactical risk: 3.0 (sporadic T3C capability)
Tarek Voidstrider — Unclear (self-destruct/loss) — Kill count: 2 — Tactical risk: 2.0 (unconfirmed attacker signature)

Timing / windows of observed activity (UTC)

Advisory / Recommended actions (rooted in observed data)

Do not transit Elarel in shuttles or capsules. Analyst data rates these targets as effectively guaranteed losses (real_thread 5.0). Undocking these hulls into Elarel is high‑probability death.
Avoid hauling through Elarel with Miasmos / Iteron Mk V or similar non‑combat freighters. Haulers recorded as specific targets (real_thread 4.5).
If you must pass through, avoid the critical windows — especially Tuesday 12:00–23:30 UTC and the repeated EU/US prime periods listed above. Transit during the noted low windows (Friday 02:00–03:00 UTC; Saturday 12:00–13:00 UTC) carries lower, not zero, risk.
Prefer alternative routing that bypasses Elarel entirely where practical. The presence of dedicated battleship gankers makes safe transit unlikely.
If passage is unavoidable, travel in a combat‑capable, high‑mobility ship or with an escort. Passive civilian fits (shuttles, T1 haulers, unarmed exploration frigates) are being actively targeted and will not survive most encounters.
Use survivability measures consistent with facing gate/station camps: remain aligned, keep a burn/warp plan, and be prepared to warp immediately. Cloak/covops use mitigates risk where applicable (Cailin Dioltas uses a Manticore stealth bomber in select attacks).
Treat any presence of Abaddon/Praxis in local as an immediate escalation of danger. These platforms are being used specifically to kill soft targets in-system; sightings correlate strongly with imminent ganking events.

If engaged

Prioritize escape over engagement unless you have confirmed support. The primary observed tactics are high‑dps ganks from battleship platforms; solo soft ships are at a severe disadvantage.
Do not rely on “off‑peak” complacency — the predators operate across multiple timezones and have demonstrated activity in early‑morning and late‑night UTC.

Bottom line

Elarel is an active predator environment dominated by a few repeat battleship/cruiser operators. For unaligned or non‑combat pilots, the system is high risk — avoid Shuttles/Capsules/Haulers entirely and route around the system where possible. If transit cannot be avoided, only do so during the lowest‑observed windows and only in ships and fits capable of surviving a dedicated gank.
