Relic Site Q

Was helping a friend out with some security while he ran a relic site in WH space yesterday. Noticed that at some point between him starting to shoot the defending sleepers and shooting the last one (was about 30 defenders all included) the exploration boxes / sleeper infrastructure had disappeared. I'm wondering if the site despawns after a certain defender is killed or something?

Not that i'm planning to run any sleeper sites in the near future but i'd be interested to know how they work for future reference. It was my understanding that the site wouldn't despawn until the boxes had been hacked.

Cheers NPQA folks.

Did he warp off from the site at all?

In my experience if you kill the sleepers and leave and come back (say you reshipped to a hacking frig) the site will despawn (not sure what the timer is on this). This will also happen if you make a hack attempt on a can and warp out.

I've never seen the cans despawn while somebody is still on grid. But they can/will disappear if you warp off. AFAIK, despawn is not triggered by any sleepers getting killed

For info, nobody left grid. We just noticed after last BS died that everything else was gone too..

Ah well teach me for getting involved in PvE Pirate
