Mormelot – 2025-10-22
Summary
- System: Mormelot (Everyshore, Low-Sec)
- Current Threat Level: LOW-MEDIUM (Escalating)
- Incident: High-value capsule kill recorded 2025-10-20 20:30:21Z (Monday, prime time)
What happened
- Killmail shows a Vedmak piloted by Sick Artley delivering decisive damage, with a Navitas (Jason Ozran) listed in the engagement. The victim’s capsule was a Genolution "Auroral" 197-variant.
- Combination of a high-damage triglavian cruiser + logistic/EWAR-capable support strongly indicates a coordinated ambush (likely gate-camp or local tackle network).
Threat profile (top concerns)
- Vedmak (Sick Artley): extreme single-target threat to unescorted ships — assume lethal intent.
- Navitas (Jason Ozran): support role — suggests coordination (remote repair, EWAR or final-blow opportunism).
- Targeting of capsule indicates aggressors commit to force lethality beyond ship kills — implants and pod safety are at risk.
- Time of activity: 20:30Z (prime UTC evening) — increased risk during peak hours.
- Possibility of unseen auxiliary forces (scouts, secondary tackle) — assume numbers may exceed those visible on immediate scan.
Practical advice for pilots in/through Mormelot
- Avoid solo travel in high-value hulls or with expensive implants during prime-time hours (evenings UTC).
- Travel light: use inexpensive replaceable hulls when transiting low-sec gates that could be ambushed.
- Align/warp discipline: stay aligned, bookmarks for instant warp-off, use random approach vectors to gates.
- Cloak/cov-ops where possible; use short burns and zeroing of approach time to minimize tackle windows.
- Assume coordination: if you see a Vedmak + logistics/support nearby, treat as a multi-ship engagement and disengage immediately.
- Pod safety: eject with caution — pods are viable targets; consider implant insurance or pre-planned pod-extraction routes.
Operational note
- Mormelot is not safe for complacent travel. Threats are organized and active during peak hours; pilots should plan routes and fittings accordingly and avoid exposing valuable assets unnecessarily.
Everyshore Intel Network will continue to monitor developments in Mormelot and adjacent low-sec lanes. Stay cautious.
