Groothese – 2025-10-14

EIN Advisory — Groothese System: Elevated Threat (3.5/5.0)

Threat snapshot

  • Groothese is a Low‑Sec system with a moderately elevated and persistent hostile presence. Activity clusters between 19:00–03:00 UTC (peak around 22:00 UTC), with weekend spikes. Expect coordinated ganks and opportunistic hunters; unprepared pilots are at significant risk.

Time & patterns

  • Peak hours: 19:00–03:00 UTC (notably ~22:00 UTC).
  • Daytime: sporadic incidents—do not assume safety outside peak windows.
  • Weekends: increased tempo; plan ops accordingly.

Actors and platforms to note

  • Aladar Krahn & Cadhla Dioltas — Real Threat 4.5/5: Tholos + Garmur/Tholos. Highly coordinated, versatile (kills include frigates, fleet issue, and MTUs).
  • Evilelmo & HooKz — Real Threat 4.0/5: Loki + Stiletto. Loki provides anchoring/combat power; Stiletto performs fast tackle—expect bubbles and rapid lockdowns.
  • Blackwell & Ambraelle Group — Real Threat 3.5/5: Multiple Ravens + Widow (and Praxis presence). Capable of long‑range fleet actions and covert warp‑ins against structures/deployables.
  • Peter Powers — Real Threat 3.0/5: Legion. Single‑pilot, high‑capability strategic cruiser.
  • Ironman journey — Real Threat 2.5/5: Algos targeting small exploiter vessels.
  • Dejan Estemaire — Real Threat 2.0/5: Gnosis taking opportunistic hauls.

Observed tactics

  • Fast tacklers + strategic/cruiser firepower for quick arrests and kills.
  • Possible warp disruption fields (bubbles) associated with Loki activity—gate and anomaly ambush risk.
  • Long‑range Raven deployments and covert Widow warp‑ins against structures or anchored assets.

Operational guidance (Low‑Sec practical steps)

  • Avoid peak hours (19:00–03:00 UTC) and weekend windows for vulnerable transits or hauls.
  • Fit for survival: consider warp core stabilizers, high‑align fits (tackle avoidance), and modules that improve escape (MWD/afterburner depending on fit). Cloaks or cov‑ops for sensitive movement where applicable.
  • Expect tackle: prepare for scram/web scenarios (reduce cargo exposure; use smaller, faster scouts for hauling).
  • D‑Scan and motion‑practice: monitor local, d‑scan frequently, and be wary of sudden local spikes or multiple signatures.
  • No autopilot: manually navigate gate jumps and anomaly entries; be ready to burn off gates or align out immediately.
  • Structure/MTU security: avoid leaving unattended MTUs or cargo pods; these have been targeted.

Bottom line
Groothese is actively hunted. Assume predators operate evenings and weekends with mixed solo pairs and small fleets. Transit smart, fit defensively, and avoid predictable behavior during the established peak windows.

Recent Advisories

Groothese – 2025-11-20

TL 3.1

Groothese (Everyshore) is a high-risk low-sec system under sustained predation, with a local Threat Level of 3.5. The attack pattern is dominated by Edgar Berdnikow and Peter Powers, with support from T3/BC pilots targeting mobile structures and DSTs.

Groothese – 2025-11-19

TL 3.1

Groothese is currently under elevated, localized threat driven by two active cores: a morning feud between Peter Powers and Edgar Berdnikow, and an afternoon/evening ganking cell called the Gnosis Group. Analyst data classifies Groothese as likely High-Security based on ship profiles, but the combat and asset-denial activity create Low-Sec style risks, so operations should be treated with heightened caution.

Groothese – 2025-11-18

TL 3.1

Groothese is currently under elevated predatory activity with multiple high-risk engagements and peak windows observed. Despite a high-security designation, tactics resemble low-sec roaming and threaten solo and lightly fitted pilots.

Groothese – 2025-11-17

TL 3.1

Groothese is a volatile Low-Sec hotspot assessed as High Risk, characterized by persistent organized small-gang activity and targeted infrastructure warfare. The threat mix combines opportunistic ganking with deliberate escalation using high‑tier ships, led by two dominant factions: the Rattlesnake-centric Edgar Berdnikow and the Nighthawk-centric Peter Powers, whose encounters are likely lethal without proper preparation.

Groothese – 2025-11-16

TL 3.1

Groothese is a highly contested Low-Sec system with sustained, organized PvP activity and a HIGH THREAT rating of 4.2/5.0. The threat environment is driven by multiple coordinated small-gangs and at least one highly skilled solo battleship pilot, targeting T3 cruisers, Black Ops battleships, and other high-value hulls.

Groothese – 2025-11-15

TL 3.5

Groothese in High-Sec is experiencing elevated, coordinated ganking, with a rolling 7-day threat of 3.5/5 and two persistent actors plus a top operator driving most losses. The principal killers are Artley Group, McBride/Krahn Duo, and Edgar Berdnikow, whose Rattlesnake multi-kill on 2025-11-15 demonstrates premeditated targeting and strong scouting capabilities, with peak risk on weekend late UTC and late-night UTC on weekdays.

Groothese – 2025-11-14

TL 3.3

Groothese is a high-threat Low-Sec chokepoint with two persistent predator profiles actively hunting haulers, exploration ships, and capsules. The EU Prime Time window (17:00–23:00 UTC), particularly Sundays and Mondays, represents the peak risk and can escalate into counter-ganks.
