Hello Commanders,

is there a way to determine in which conflict zones are capital ships?
For now it looks totally random to me.
It seems they are more frequently when controlling power factions in a war with local minor faction which dont belong to a major power.

A friend was asking me if i know a place, i suggested Ross 85 but the war is over there....was the last time i saw a capital ship over there.

Thank you :)

You will get them most often in "War" states in High Conflict Zones. I haven't noticed a 100% pattern but War is the place for it.

If you're really lucky you can get two ships. That's a real light show.

Obviously one of the factions involved in the war needs to be either Federation or Empire. I doubt you'll get one if both factions are the same super power though - but who knows if FD considered that scenario when coding it.

it isn't deterministic, but a WAR with at least one superpower alligned minor faction has the chance of spawning a cap ship.

LP 320-359 and GD 140 has had them recently. Singles and double capitol ships. I took these to show a mate, but I went back there two nights ago and there's still plenty of action going on.

What exactly is the point of fighting in these specific conflict zones? I tried a couple but got ganked pretty quick by npcs so I avoid them now... On a side note, I'd like to see something like this but as a boss raid community goal type thing. Where other players can join in instead of resorting to wingmates or the like. Possibly with the thargoids! Have a huge boss ship that we can all take part in destroying and get some unique loot. Maybe a little far fetched for ed, but I used to play black prophecy and those boss raids were pretty awesome.

Were you also a Necromancer in that, too?

I remember the first time I saw one of these drop in. It was rad...

Until I realized that one CMDR can run one of these off on their own.

On the bridge of the INV Goliath...

"Captain! We've lost another relay! One more and we're going to start cooking!"

"How is this happening?"

"It... appears to be one of our own, sir. An Imperial Eagle."

"I knew letting just anyone buy one of those was a bad idea..."

"Orders, sir?"

"Blast it with one of our many weapons, you idiot!"

"They... can't reach that far."

"Then launch fighters!"

"Uh..."

"Well, go on, then!"

"We can't do that either... See, only a handful spawn when we first drop in, but that's it."

*alarms blaring*

"God help us all."
