Mannar – 2025-10-15
Mannar Advisory — Elevated Threat Window 18:00–20:00 UTC
Timeframe: 2025-10-12 → 2025-10-14
Security: Low-Sec (Mannar)
Summary
- Mannar has shown a concentrated spike in aggressive capsuleer activity during late UTC afternoons/evenings. Peak danger is 18:00–20:00 UTC. Solo and small-team hunters are active; rookie and lightly fitted ships are at highest risk.
Observed High-Risk Actors (from recent kill activity)
- Alexis glavor — Tholos (real_thread: 4.8). Involved in a double-kill ambush/retaliation on 2025-10-12; encounter rated near-certain death if trapped by glavor and accomplices.
- Bombardio Crocodilo — Vagabond (real_thread: 4.0). Opportunistic hunting of vulnerable targets.
- FadFea — Catalyst Navy Issue (real_thread: 3.5). Demonstrates lethal PvP capability against combat-fitted opponents.
- Isolated self-death (Heron) noted — not an external actor (real_thread: 1.0).
Tactical Advisory (rooted in analyst data)
- Avoid transits through Mannar during 18:00–20:00 UTC where possible. This is the system’s highest-risk window.
- If transit is necessary:
- Travel in combat-capable fittings or hulls; avoid flying rookie/weak-frigate hulls in-system at peak times.
- Maintain warp/align readiness: pre-align to an exit bookmark and be prepared to warp instantaneously.
- Use cloaks, safe bookmarks and zero-warp bookmarks where available; check D-Scan before and after warp.
- Expect solo hunters and small coordinated teams; be conservative with mastodons (station approach) and loitering in gates or belts.
- Morning UTC hours show reduced—but non-zero—risk; remain vigilant even off-peak.
Risk Bottom Line
- Mannar is elevated-danger low-sec during late afternoon/evening UTC. Skilled pilots in heavy combat hulls (notably a Tholos and Vagabond) have produced lethal engagements. Exercise heightened caution and prefer avoidance during the 18:00–20:00 UTC window.
