Angatalie – 2025-11-17
Date: 2025-11-17
System Security: Low-Sec (Everyshore Region)
System Status: Caution — High
Quick Summary
- Local threat level: Moderate overall (~3.0), with spikes to High (4.0–5.0) during specific windows.
- Primary dangers:
- Anatoli Sokolow in an Ikitursa (HAC) — Highest confirmed individual threat. Avoid contact.
- Opportunistic gankers (Vexor Navy Issue / Endurance) targeting small and lightly insured hulls.
- Two significant ship losses (Megathron, Hurricane) with no recorded attackers — implies the presence of a coordinated, high-capability threat capable of destroying battleship-class targets.
- Most dangerous times: 09:00–11:00 UTC (primary peak). Secondary, lower-risk window: 03:00–07:00 UTC.
Observed Threats (from analyst data)
- Anatoli Sokolow — Ikitursa (Real Threat: 5.0)
- Observed near 10:00 UTC on multiple days in PvE-combat signatures; capable of rapidly destroying most sub-capital ships. Mandatory avoidance recommended.
- Opportunistic actors — Fewederia Alant Agnon (Vexor Navy Issue, Real Threat: 3.5) and Vincemt' Night (Endurance, Real Threat: 2.0)
- Targeting small, soft targets (Caracal, Velator). Cloaky/ambush tactics likely.
- Unidentified aggressors — responsible for destruction of a Megathron and a Hurricane (Real Threat estimate: 4.0–5.0)
- These events strongly suggest a coordinated force or specialized tactic operating in the 09:00–11:00 UTC window.
Temporal Pattern / Risk Windows
- 09:00–11:00 UTC — Primary danger window. Expect high-end combat ships (Ikitursa and/or coordinated force); avoid transits and non-essential operations.
- 03:00–07:00 UTC — Secondary window. Opportunistic gank activity against small/fragile ships; increased risk for explorers, haulers, and corvettes.
- Other hours — Lower recorded activity, but system is not passive; remain cautious.
Recommended Actions (rooted in the analyst data)
- Non-combat pilots (haulers, miners, explorers, starter ships):
- Avoid Angatalie entirely during 09:00–11:00 UTC.
- If transit is unavoidable, schedule through outside the two known windows and use maximum survivability measures (fast align, pre-warp bookmarks, empty cargo where possible, and avoid solo low-HP hulls).
- Small/independent PvP pilots (frigates, destroyers, light cruisers):
- Do not loiter or PvE during 09:00–11:00 UTC. Expect a high-tier Ikitursa and/or coordinated opposition.
- Between 03:00–07:00 UTC assume there are opportunistic hunters and cloak-tackle possibilities (Endurance reported).
- Combat-capable pilots and fleets:
- If operating in Angatalie during the 09:00–11:00 UTC window, be prepared for encounters with an Ikitursa and for an unidentified force capable of destroying battleship-class hulls. Plan for appropriate countermeasures (tackle control, heavy EWAR, or coordinated gang responses).
- Consider avoiding one-on-one engagements with the Ikitursa unless force composition and doctrine explicitly counters Triglavian HACs.
- General operational hygiene:
- Use scouts/forward eyes when possible, voyage with a clear escape route and pre-warp safes.
- Keep high-value assets out of the system during peak windows.
- When docking, undocking, or aligning, minimize predictable routines that can be exploited by cloaky or gank actors.
Notable Warnings
- Anatoli Sokolow (Ikitursa) — Mandatory avoidance. This pilot/ship combination represents the highest individual threat in the dataset and has been repeatedly observed around 10:00 UTC.
- Unknown attackers who destroyed a Megathron and Hurricane — treat as a high-level threat until further patterns indicate otherwise. Assume capability to defeat large hulls in short order.
- Opportunistic cloaky presence (Endurance) indicates bait/tackle and ambush strategies against fragile targets.
Bottom Line
Angatalie is an active low-sec system with concentrated high-risk activity in mid-morning UTC and opportunistic ganking in the early morning. Non-essential traffic should avoid the system during 09:00–11:00 UTC and exercise heightened caution during 03:00–07:00 UTC. Combat pilots operating in this system should prepare for high-tier opponents and unknown coordinated forces.
EIN will continue to monitor for further pattern changes.
