Mannar – 2025-10-18
EIN-Advisory — Mannar (October 2025) — OVERALL: MODERATE
Summary
- Mannar saw a cluster of opportunistic and small-group attacks in October. Peak danger window: 17:00–20:00 UTC (late afternoon → early evening). Weekend activity is slightly elevated.
- Notable hostile signatures: two Tholos pilots (Alexis glavor, Aladar Krahn), a Catalyst Navy Issue (FadFea), and a Vagabond (Bombardio Crocodilo). MTU loss recorded — industrial assets are targeted.
Top threats (concise)
- Alexis glavor — Tholos — Threat 3.5: multiple rapid kills during peak hours. Avoid solo fights vs Tholos.
- Aladar Krahn — Tholos — Threat 3.0: destroyed a Mobile Tractor Unit (MTU). MTUs/industrial modules are vulnerable.
- FadFea — Catalyst Navy Issue — Threat 2.5: fast, high-DPS skirmisher; dangerous to small hulls.
- Bombardio Crocodilo — Vagabond — Threat 2.0: mobile hunter active during peak hours.
- Powny Black — Augoror Navy Issue / Capsule — Threat 1.5: involved in evening skirmishes.
- Kahn Q — Heron (unattributed loss) — Threat 1.0: likely accidental or isolated.
Tactical Guidance (rooted in observed data)
- Avoid solo ops in Mannar between 17:00–20:00 UTC. If you must be active then, operate with a scout and at least one wingmate.
- Do not deploy MTUs or leave salvage/industrial modules unattended during afternoon/evening windows. Consider delaying deployments to low-activity hours or bringing an armed escort.
- Small/fragile ships (frigates/destroyers) are at elevated risk. Use safer, tanked, or fleet compositions when passing through at peak times.
- Maintain constant D-scan and alignment to a safe spot or station bookmark when idling. Expect quick-engagement pilots (Tholos, Vagabond, Catalyst Navy).
- If you run industry/mining/run missions here, move high-value cargo in fleets or stagger trips to reduce single-haul exposure.
Operational note
- Mannar is low-sec: expect opportunistic ganks and short, decisive engagements rather than sustained battles. Adjust activity windows and force posture accordingly.
Stay safe: plan for evenings as the riskiest period and treat industrial modules as high-value bait.
