Groothese — Moderate to High Risk: Predators Active; Avoid Peak Hours

Everyshore Intel Network Advisory — Groothese (Low-Sec)

Threat Level: MODERATE TO HIGH (Real threat 3.5/5.0)

Summary
Groothese has shown a sustained pattern of predatory activity over the past week. Incidents range from opportunistic frigate kills to coordinated ambushes with stealth bombers and heavy cruisers. Pilots transiting or operating in Groothese should be extremely cautious — particularly during identified high-risk windows.

High-risk Windows

  • Early UTC morning: 01:00–04:00 UTC — consistent, organized hunting.
  • Late UTC evening: 18:00–23:00 UTC — spikes of larger, coordinated groups.

Top Identified Threats (Observed behaviour & immediate risk)

  1. Cailin Dioltas — REAL THREAD: 4.5/5.0
    • Ship: Loki (T3 Cruiser). Two rapid Tayra kills. Near-guaranteed death for unprepared targets. Avoid.
  2. Cadhla Dioltas & Aladar Krahn — REAL THREAD: 4.0/5.0
    • Ships: Garmur + Garmur/Manticore. Coordinated pair; use of Manticore indicates cloaked alpha capability. Dangerous in tandem.
  3. Kayla Starchild — REAL THREAD: 3.8/5.0
    • Ship: Tengu (T3 Cruiser). Capable solo but particularly lethal when in group operations.
  4. “Purifier” group (led by Evilelmo in Ikitursa) — REAL THREAD: 3.5/5.0
    • Composition: Multiple Purifiers + Ikitursa. High burst ambush profile; responsible for destroying a Rokh. Assume planned gank if Purifiers detected.
  5. Torrent Talon — REAL THREAD: 3.0/5.0
    • Ship: Drekavac. Effective solo hunter; able to threaten most sub-capitals.
  6. Aladar Krahn (solo) — REAL THREAD: 2.5/5.0
    • Ship: Garmur. Proven frigate hunter; less existential alone but dangerous to small/ill-fitted ships.

Immediate Recommendations

  • Avoid Groothese during 01:00–04:00 UTC and 18:00–23:00 UTC where possible.
  • Use fast, scout-capable hulls or a dedicated recon alt before moving valuable assets through the system.
  • Be vigilant on gates and at undock; check for stealth bomber signatures and cloaked ships.
  • Travel in convoys or in properly tanked/combat-fitted ships if transit is unavoidable.
  • Industrial pilots should reroute if carrying high-value cargo; consider blockade runners or jump freighters with escorts.
  • Recognize threat ship profiles: Loki, Tengu, Garmur, Manticore, Ikitursa, Drekavac, Purifier — presence of any increases engagement risk.

Final Note
Groothese is an active hunting ground in low-sec. The mix of T3 cruisers, stealth bombers, and coordinated duos makes random transit hazardous. Heed the high-risk windows and the above precautions to reduce losses.

Monthly Intelligence Report: Groothese - September 2025

Overview

Groothese, a Low-Security system in Everyshore, maintained a High-Risk profile throughout September 2025. The majority of activity was concentrated between coordinated small-gang PvP and persistent solo hunting, establishing predictable high-threat windows that targeted both valuable combat ships and vulnerable non-combat hulls. The average calculated Threat Level for the month was 3.42 (on a scale of 5).

Noteworthy Combatants

Most Noteworthy Killers (Max 8)

  1. Hunter Dredd (Loki): Highly effective solo Strategic Cruiser operator, active mid-day UTC, specializing in killing ventures, explorers, and light cruisers.
  2. Aladar Krahn (Garmur, Manticore): Predatory faction frigate pilot focusing on frigates, exploration ships, and frequent capsule kills.
  3. Alexis glavor (Vigilant, Orthrus): Key member of "The Trinity," providing DPS and tackle.
  4. Sick Artley (Legion): Key member of "The Trinity," providing heavy DPS.
  5. Jason Ozran (Lachesis): Key member of "The Trinity," providing EWAR and tackle.
  6. Cailin Dioltas (Loki): Coordinated Strategic Cruiser pilot, active in early morning hours, targeting industrials.
  7. Ena Yleto Yanumano (Panther, Black Ops): Leader of the Black Ops-capable gang, responsible for high-value ambush operations.
  8. Kayla Starchild (Tengu): Strategic Cruiser pilot who frequently pairs with Garmur/Loki threats in early morning.

Most Noteworthy Victims (Max 3)

Victim information focused heavily on non-combat ships and vulnerable sub-capitals. Specific names mentioned were:

  1. Siegl Kuparos: Repeated victim, targeted due to predictable routines in system.
  2. Venture / Heron Pilots: Frequent victims of Aladar Krahn and Hunter Dredd, representing the softest targets in the system.
  3. DimanLin (Tempest): A solo battleship pilot who was engaged and neutralized by a gang, serving as a notable high-value loss.

Noteworthy Groups Working Together

  • The Trinity (Trio): Alexis glavor, Sick Artley, and Jason Ozran consistently operated as a highly coordinated 3-man gang, utilizing an effective mix of Vigilant/Orthrus (DPS/Tackle), Legion (DPS), and Lachesis (EWAR/Tackle).
  • Black Ops Team: Ena Yleto Yanumano (Panther), Vipy Styx (Redeemer), KiaOra Bro (Widow), and Kaiinen Muutaras (Proteus) operated together, demonstrating the ability to deploy overwhelming covert force.
  • Early Morning Coordination: Cailin Dioltas (Loki) and Kayla Starchild (Tengu) frequently paired with Garmur pilots (Aladar Krahn/Cadhla Dioltas) to execute coordinated strikes against haulers.

Summary of Monthly History

September in Groothese was defined by consistent predatory activity with clear temporal patterns. The system rarely saw a low-threat period. The majority of the conflict centered on established hunting windows: late UTC evenings (20:00–23:00) belonged to The Trinity, while early mornings (01:00–04:00 and 08:00–09:00 UTC) were dominated by stealth-capable assets, including Black Ops teams and the Loki/Garmur duos. Hunters were observed to be ruthless, with frequent capsule destruction noted across all advisories. The activity was not random; it shows a tactical understanding of local transit and vulnerable targets. The Black Ops deployment demonstrated the immediate escalation potential of seemingly simple engagements.

Notable Groups in Conflict

  • The Trinity (Alexis glavor, Sick Artley, Jason Ozran) vs. Opportunistic Traders/Explorers/Vulnerable Pilots (primarily single ships like Herons, Ventures, and assorted Combat hulls).
  • Black Ops Team (Ena Yleto Yanumano et al.) vs. DimanLin (Tempest) and potential allies: This represents a high-profile engagement where a solo battleship was engaged and subsequently drew overwhelming covert response.
  • Hunter Dredd / Dioltas/Starchild Cells vs. Industrial Pilots (e.g., Venture, Tayra, and pilots like Siegl Kuparos).

Typical Ships Used in the System

Classification Killers (Aggressors) Victims (Targets) Strategic Cruiser (T3) Loki (Hunter Dredd, Cailin Dioltas), Tengu (Kayla Starchild), Proteus (BO Support) Assorted Combat Ships Black Ops Battleship Panther (Ena Yleto Yanumano), Redeemer, Widow Tempest, Subcapitals Heavy Assault Cruiser/Cruiser Legion, Orthrus, Vigilant, Lachesis (Recon) Light Cruisers, Ventures Frigate Garmur (Aladar Krahn, Cadhla Dioltas) Heron, Ventures, Capsules Battleship Tempest Tempest (Victim) Industrial N/A Venture, Tayra (Hauler), Capsules

Trends

  1. Temporal Predictability: Hostile activity is highly predictable, clustering around late UTC evening (organized gang) and early UTC morning (solo/duo covert assets). This creates clear windows for both avoidance and counter-engagement.
  2. Focus on Soft Targets: Despite the presence of high-end vessels (T3s, Black Ops), aggressors frequently target low-value, vulnerable hulls (Ventures, Explorers) often utilizing agile frigates (Garmur) for precision kills and capsule destruction.
  3. Black Ops Readiness: The observed success of the Black Ops response group indicates that high-value conflict (like a solo Tempest engagement) may rapidly escalate into an overwhelming ambush, signaling high-level combat capability within the hunting population.
  4. Strategic Cruiser Dominance: T3 Cruisers (Loki, Tengu) are prevalent across multiple aggressive pilots/gangs, confirming their tactical viability in Low-Sec PvP for solo hunting and coordinated action due to their adaptability and cloaking capabilities.

Notable Kills (Max 5 - Representative Examples)

  • Solo Hunter Dredd Loki Kill: Neutralization of a light/medium combat or high-value exploration ship, highlighting the effectiveness of the cloaky solo T3 threat.
  • Trinity Gang Kill: A coordinated kill involving the Legion, Vigilant, and Lachesis against a valuable cruiser or command ship during the high-threat evening window.
  • Aladar Krahn Garmur Kill: Destruction of a Heron or Venture, immediately followed by the capsule kill, representing the persistent threat to industrial/exploration activities.
  • Black Ops Panther Kill: The decisive engagement where DimanLin's Tempest or another high-value target was neutralized by the Black Ops response team, showcasing system escalation risk.
  • Coordinated Industrial Kill: The loss of a Tayra or high-value Venture to the early-morning Loki/Garmur teams (Cailin Dioltas and partners), confirming the organized attacks against haulers.
