Hi all,

How do you contract an escelation to someone else? Do you have to create a bookmark for the escelation from your journal?

Or go to the actual site and bookmark it then contract that?

The escalation site listed in the expedition tab of the journal is only active for 24 hours from the moment it is received. To make a Bookmark for trade to someone else, you'll have to travel to that system, warp to the site, Bookmark the area beacon, warp to station and Trade Bookmark or create a contract.

When you warp to the site, the timer will be reset in your journal giving you another 24 hours to complete it. The other player who get's that Bookmark will have less than 24 hours, the amount of time depending on how long it takes them to accept the Bookmark, get to the site and complete it.

The bolded part can be done for a maximum of 7 days, on the 7th it has to be finished during those remaining hours.

Edit: forgot this: I used the cancel warp when i wanted to extend the time given for an escalation, wasn't always ppl available/around when i received an escalation.

That's true for the player who originally has the expedition, also as long as the Overseer NPC or Structure isn't destroyed.

If the site is bookmarked and than transfered to a 2nd player, the 2nd player will have to complete the site asap before the timer runs out in the journal of the 1st player. The 1st player can help keep the site active for the 2nd player with the 'warp to and cancel warp' trick.
