Mormelot – 2025-09-30
Mormelot System Advisory — Elevated Saturday Threats (Low-Sec)
Summary
- Overall threat: Moderate to High with sharp spikes on Saturdays.
- Context: Mormelot is Low-Sec and hosts both coordinated gang activity and effective lone hunters. Transit or operations here carry real risk, especially to industrial and lightly fitted ships.
Current Threat Highlights
- Saturday mornings (~06:00 UTC): Critical-level fleet operation observed. Attackers fielded multiple Barghests supported by an Onyx, Huginn, Arazu and a Hyena (9 attackers total) — engagement destroyed an Arazu. Real_threat: 5.0. Treat the system as extremely dangerous at this time.
- Saturday afternoons (~12:00 UTC): Solo predator in a Khizriel-class ship destroyed a Venture. Real_threat: 4.0. Solo hunters target miners/industrial ships during higher pop hours.
- Tuesday (~13:00 UTC): A Manticore stealth bomber was lost with no recorded attackers. This suggests possible smartbomb gatecamp, unreported PvP mechanics, or other unavoidable threat. Real_threat: 1.5–3.5 (uncertain but notable).
Top Threat Threads (concise)
- Saturday Morning Barghest Fleet — coordinated, high firepower, interdiction and recon support. Almost certain loss if engaged.
- Single Khizriel Hunter — fast, high-DPM solo hunter targeting soft targets.
- Unidentified Manticore Loss — indicates invisible/static threats at choke points (e.g., smartbomb gatecamps).
- Opportunistic solo predators — ongoing background risk.
- Scouts/recon ahead of fleet ops — indirect indicator you may be marked for later engagement.
Recommended Actions (based on observed activity)
- Avoid Mormelot on Saturdays where possible, especially around 06:00 and 12:00 UTC.
- Travel in escorts/fleets for industrial or high-value to deter lone hunters.
- Scout gates and anomalies before moving high-value ships; use a cheap, expendable scout.
- Fit for escape: align/warm-up times, warp core stabilizers where appropriate, and modules to maximize align/warp speed or EHP depending on role.
- Cloak and be cautious in safe spots if piloting a cloaky ship — recon ships have been observed supporting fleets.
- Assume observation: expect scouts or information gatherers; act as if you’re being watched at choke points.
This advisory is drawn solely from reported incidents in Mormelot. Pilots should plan routes and ops with these time-patterns and ship-compositions in mind.
