Making a channel to track drifter whs. What we know so far:
  • There are 5
  • They are c2*
  • They spawn where jove observatory is present
  • The Drifter drops a key to a vault in another wh
  • Complex splits into two paths that require cooperation and timing to pass to final room

    • *Kinda not really. Effects are similiar to c2 but you can't roll into them with c2 static.

    Questions:
  • Can you roll into them with c2 static? NOPE
  • Where do jove observatories spawn?
  • WHATS IN THE BOX??

    • Join 'Drifter Holes' if your interested in sticking your ship(s) in new holes Lol

    Note: Drifters will engage Zephyr

    Drifter Systems

    1. J174618 - Redoubt - Wolf-Rayet?
      2. Incoming Statics: Wandering Highsec/Lowsec/Nullsec spawn in systems with Jove Obervatories and are stable until downtime.
      Outgoing Statics: Static C2 D382
      Anomalies: Unknown Anomaly

    Which means that you can't roll into them with any static.

    Would be interested. Also sharing link with corp since some other iso5 guys and gals have expressed interest.

    I'm right behind you

    Playing around on sisi I found another drifter hole. I think it was a pulsar. I was able to solo a drifter Big smile. Method I used: Warp in stabber. Preheat guns and invuln. Drop drones on landing and mwd towards drifter to engage. Pop overshield and take the DD. Reship to Maelstrom and finish him off!

    My Mael had ogre's in it but those were way to slow. Drifter is fast as ****. Goes 2.7k+ m/s and orbits at ~1.7k m/s around 18kms

    Hello.

    I went into J055520 and it has Red giant effect.

    Scanned about 5 wormholes inside, did not check where they lead to.

    There were also around 4 combat anomalies, but without regular wormhole sleepers. Only Circadian seekers or Drifter battleships can be in and can warp in and out randomly.

    There is Celestial beacon called Sentinel. It contains acceleration gate into a complex. Entrance itself can be randomly guarded by Circadian seekers of Drifters. Complex inside is little bit more complicated. In every room, there are some standard wormhole sleepers (starting with frigates, deeper in complex also cruisers), but in every room there seem to be chance to have Circadian seekers or Drifters again.
    In every room there are multiple acceleration gates and usually one Spatial Rift called Sentinel Rift, which is basically a acceleration gate and leads to the entrance of the complex (from my experience).
    Some acceleration gates require key of some kind, other do not. I proceeded into 3rd room, where there were 4 standard sleeper frigates, 2 standard sleeper cruisers and 2 Drifter Battleships. Drifters scanned structures present and did not warp away for quite some time. In this room there was a Sentinel Beta Access Unit what seems to be a hackable can. Again a acceleration gate was present and a Spatial Rift.

    I tried to MWD to acceleration gate from 20 km in a Probe and was targeted by everyone including Drifters and shot down in seconds. I also found someone's mobile depot in the last room, so someone else was brave enough to get in. Unfortunately I did not scan content of the hacking can (damn I forgot about it...)^^

    P.S. Some sleepers tend to orbit and stay around beacons inside the Sentinel complex, so be careful even with cloak.

    Good luck!

    * The rift takes you back to the first warpin point.
    * There are 2 hackable cans, with 1-2 minute cooldown after you hacked it. I can only assume hacking both cans within the 2 minutes opens the locked acceleration gate.

    My team decided to not go further, but by hacking the cans, a local message is shown to all present in local which can has been hacked.

    Pitched a tent in the Barbican hole for a few hours, one brave noobie mobile depot was all i found to shoot at. Left disappointed.

    Ok. I found a drifter wh in high sec. I warped in, cloaked, and watched awhile. I approached cloaked. They ignored me. But the hole collapsed.

    The structures are still there. I bookmarked the location.

    Will it "respawn"? If it does, do I enter it like any other wormhole?

    Can I activate the wormhole using an entosis link?

    Its like any other wh. Just approach within 5km and jump. If the wh collapsed with you on grid the grid will despawn when everyone leaves grid.

    Hacking for sure. Need to confirm if relic analyzer will also work.

    So did we ever figure out what the elements did? Maybe you have to combine them into a magic ball of something?
