OMG!!

So I was out mining, gathering mats for manufacturing, when all of a sudden two of those drifter BS appeared and started circling me like a pair of sharks.

They kept 'scanning', for lack of a better term, both my ships and my drones, shining their blue spot-light thingy.

Pretty creepy stuff. Still, I gotta admit those female drifters are kinda hot in a weird, Borg we-want-to-assimilate-you way. Must be the fantastic butts they have P

That's nothing. Try shooting them. You'll wake-up finding you've been "probed" too.

I enjoy the drifter encounters (as of current). They are eerie and interesting :)

I wonder if I'd be able to ask one of those cute female Drifters out on a date...

Take her to a nice dinner at the local Sarum Station's Supper Beyond The Stars Amarr Cuisine, followed by watching a romantic holovid together. Then we could do each other's makeup, pick out some sexy clothes and go to the nightclub Khanid's Sins for a fun evening of drinking and dancing. Finally, we could watch the nebulae through the windows at the station's public park while talking about the latest cybernetic augmentations before I walk her home to her Drifter BS docked in-station.

Ahhhh...it would be such a wonderful evening. I think me and a Drifter female would make a cute lesbian cyborg couple Big smile

I frequently see drifters in Amarr, hanging around the most populated station. They hang around for a long time, probing and generally making everyone a little edgy. It's awesome, and I'm eager to know what they're up to :D

Maybe the Drifters and the Seekers are ancient enemies. Or maybe the Seekers are from Earth!

Hopefully the Drifters will go on a killing spree in Jita and then arrange a comback reunion

Well we'd stare out the window watching the nebulae. I'm pretty sure the station has windows for people who want to look out into space.

Sorry, not trying to flame you or insult you or anything, just clarifying what I meant P

Sorry, didn't realize OP was referring to in-game drifters...

Anyone know what those where blue lights they scan everything with are? Some kind of probe or sensor or intel gathering device or something?

They scan/probe/shine everything!! Asteroids, ships, drones. Hell, they were even probing the rats I was blowing up while mining as they were getting popped. The Drifters must be super curious about everything around them.

Some stations have pretty big parks under their domes, which you can see if you zoom in on them. As do the Opux & Victorieux Luxury Yachts

Thats them using the now reverse engineered Entosis link. if you fit one and scan them with it, they will open a trade window and offer to buy corpses from you paying you in antikythera Element.

I'm waiting for them to bring entosis links and start to disable station services of npc stations in HS when the new structures are available Pirate.

Remove standings and insurance.
