Angatalie – 2025-10-23
Date: 2025-10-20
Summary: Angatalie shows persistent opportunistic and occasional coordinated aggression. Cloaked combatants and a clustered spike on Fridays ~21:00–22:00 UTC increase risk to miners, scouts, MTUs and lightly tanked ships. Capsule kills indicate attackers will finish pods.
Observed threats (key points)
- Threat window: highest on Friday 21:00–22:00 UTC (coordinated gank recorded). Activity also occurs in weekday afternoons and can spill into late/early hours.
- Cloaked ships confirmed (Manticore, Cheetah presence). Detections are intermittent and attackers exploit stealth.
- Coordinated multi-ship gank (Panther + Widow + Proteus) demonstrates organized strike capability; such fleets can apply lethal burst DPS.
- Solo Tengu and Manticore kills show small gangs/solo hunters also operate; industrial targets (Venture, MTU) are primary prey.
- Capsule destruction recorded — pilots may be denied pod escape.
Notable actors & platforms (from dataset)
- Evilelmo — Panther (Black Ops) — high burst threat in coordinated gank.
- Sick Artley — Widow (Black Ops) — EW/cloaked support in same gank.
- Znuts Aurgnet — Proteus — significant DPS/support in same gank.
- V1ctorovich — Tengu — powerful solo striker.
- Juicy Coochie — Manticore — stealth-bomber strikes on industrials.
Recommendations (operational security — Low‑Sec)
- Avoid mining/hauling in Ventures, MTUs, unshielded haulers during Fri 21:00–22:00 UTC; consider docking that window.
- Assume cloaks are present. Keep d‑scan active and scan often while undocked.
- Minimize time in grid with MTUs deployed; clear bookmarks for instant-warp exit and keep a “safe” bookmark at +20–40 km.
- Fit warp core stabilizers / covert ops cloak (where applicable) and invest in agility/align fittings to reduce catch probability.
- Travel in numbers when possible; even a small escort deters opportunistic gankers.
- Do not AFK in low‑tank ships or near unattended industrial assets; pod loss is possible.
Use these observations to shape immediate operational choices in Angatalie. Remain cautious — low‑sec risk here is active and opportunistic.
