Mormelot – 2025-10-18
EIN-Advisory: Mormelot — Elevated Predator Activity (Everyshore)
Date: 2025-10-13
Summary
- Mormelot is assessed at Threat Level 3.5 — Elevated Risk. Repeated, directed predation from a small cadre of active hunters makes the system dangerous for solo or lightly fitted pilots, and especially for industrial/transport operations.
Confirmed predator profiles (from recent kills)
- Alexis glavor — Svipul operator. High-skill solo/small-gang hunter (real_thread ~4.5). Fast, adaptable, lethal on tackle.
- Znuts Aurgnet — Mix of Lachesis/Proteus (support and adaptable strike). Will operate solo or in coordination with Alexis (real_thread ~4.0).
- Sick Artley — Machariel battleship. Heavy-damage predator against slower/high-value targets (real_thread ~3.8).
Temporal pattern
- Weekdays (notably Friday, Monday): activity spans morning, afternoon, late evening (UTC).
- Weekend (Saturday): concentrated late afternoon → early evening (UTC).
- Peak windows to avoid if possible: 11:00–15:00 UTC and 18:00–22:00 UTC.
Tactical guidance (Low‑sec context)
- Avoid solo hauling or mining during peak hours. High-value cargo is a prime target.
- Travel in numbers: even small gangs deter Svipul/Lachesis tactics. Two+ combat-capable pilots greatly reduce risk.
- Ship choice: use fast, warp-ready ships (interceptors, covops/stealth frigates, t3 cruisers with good align) for transit. Avoid slow, unbrigged industrials through gate camps.
- Fitting/behavior: stay aligned, pre-warp to safe, keep D‑scan continuously active, and watch local closely. Expect EWAR/tackle from Lachesis-style fits and high burst from Svipul and Machariel.
- If engaged: prioritize warp-off — points/webs are likely; tackle is the objective. Don’t attempt prolonged slugfests unless you have local numeric advantage.
- Consider alternate routing or staging valuable moves through safer systems outside Everyshore when possible.
Conclusion
Mormelot displays organized predation rather than random opportunity kills. Exercise extreme caution, avoid lone high-value movements during identified windows, and favor speed, situational awareness, and group travel. Stay conservative with ship and cargo choices until activity subsides.
