Thargoid Attacks: Where, When and What you can do about it

Ok, i see it now. From the Galaxy map... I was looking for that info on the system map. Thanks Facta!

I went to the new Aegis MegaShip in Electra, Liberator UQ37, i think its new, but they still dont offer any relevant missions to defend the system. And then i tried the AX CZ. It's fun until a Basilisk shows up! Then i run with the tail between my legs!
 
My incursion experience so far (with about 1 day experience carried over from beta);

• Played in solo with AX Clipper
• No interceptors spawned, only scouts
• AX conflict zone bugged out #1, bar was stuck on full
• Kept fighting / farming
• 30 minutes later, I get the objective accomplished green message
• A single Hydra enters and becomes the new objective... :eek:

I left the zone promptly after that.
 
If that Huh is for me, it means I am in Werapana stationed on one of the new aegis ships to do business with the thargoids. By business, I mean put them out of business.

As commented, however, the new ships also seem to be good warehouses since they, too are only asking to source materials. They don't seem to care that an incursion is going on even though they are apparently here for that very reason.

I went to Wuli last week to fight the thargoids. I don't even care about Wuli, but there I was.

This is all you peoples' fault.
 
I have a dumb question. Wasnt Merope and Maia that were under infestation last week? Why was Electra attacked then?

Wasnt supposed to be something like, system is under infestation and if players fail, it becomes incursion with one of the stations down? Or did i get it wrong?

It's not clear. Maia and Merope were targeted by Eagle Eye, and changed to Infested. At some point later in the week Electra and Taygeta switched to Infected as well, and (I think) after that Maia and Merope switched away from Infected.

So :
1) Why wasn't Electra in Eagle Eye?
2) Why was Maia / Merope still in Eagle Eye once not-infected?
3) Why was Taygeta infected, and how did it not get attacked?

Answer: Dunno ;)

Should be able to get dates by looking back through the last week in this thread, though I think Maia / Merope only recovered very recently & I couldn't find that post (didn't look very hard though!)
 
I guess we need this to roll for a few more weeks, before we get how this works. One thing is for sure, there's going to be a lot more stations to repair. I hope they take the number of commodities needed for repairs down a notch or two.
 
Looks like people are already making progress in Electra and Wuli:

Hello
hope you all had a good xmas.....

Really looking for clarification on what is going on, at least at this time... that is more down to earth.... :)
You have tools to do that....

1) Thargoids old plan, every week was to attack 2 systems currently in the bubble.... not uncommonly they damage 2 stations....
Given 14,000 systems in the bubble it would take them 134 years of unfailing game player to have any effect on us.... Hardly a good winning plan...
Hence is this old game play still currently in effect... ? just in a little weirder way ?

2) While questionable... most player would like the bubble to burn.... Given goody-two-shoes keep repairing stations dragging the Burning bubble happy days out to 160 years most likely.....
Does repairing a station still requires more than the stations weight in GOLD to repair.... or are there more realistic values... ?

3) With the new scanning tool *****D1-74 system the station not under any threat, local to Electra.... I started with 77 TG targets to scan.... after scanning/ discovering, 42 Thargiod threats.. yet, i still had 92 to go.... As fast as could go and until the timer beat me, i never got that number below 60.... That is a bench on what a lot of thargiods is... 50-100 separate sites in a system....

4) At the start of the current thargiod invasion I scanned all the bubble thargiod hit systems... JORMBU... WERAPANA... WULI... KUPOL VUH....
not more than 2 to 6 Thargiod threats and not uncommonly for preiods there was none... Often the threats were thousand of LS apart even 10,000 +.... so combat was slow and very time consuming hardly worth it....
added to this not 1 system had a thargiod combat zone.... No station was under attack like GNOSIS was attack (very disappointing)
Other than a few lost thargoid ship hardly an attack at all....

5) Currently a few burning stations doesn,t mean any thing... If there is no supporting game play... Are they under attack like GNOSIS.... are there thargoids in the systems and in what realistic numbers ?
Are there other system under attack....

6) Clarification.... These attacks appear more like the old game with 3 weeks rolled into one....

On the bright side it is now only 133 years to Burn the bubble :) happy days

cheer Stu

Some of your answers will be in the op.
More stations are being taken out on a weekly basis, bit early to tell how much.
Re repairs, depends when you mean, FD did reduce the totals by 9/10 some months back.

Btw guys, shed loads of NHSS in HIP 17497 by Bao landing, multiple dozens of them! :eek: (yet the state is 'investment'! lol).
 
Hmmm. I guess my plans to go back to Colonia have to wait. What a remarkable coincidence I refitted my PvP Cutter to AX last week. *Sigh* I guess there goes my mining profit.

For Humanity! Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more...
 
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned, but I just found out that the combat bonds you get from killing thargoids work for unlocking Bris Dekker, just like normal combat bonds.
 
We all die in the bubble [woah]:D Anyway still I dont get it, infested state and you dont see any number of kills or progress, if you are good enough in the defence, so again you are going to spend hours by killing scouts and on Thursday the station will burn, serisouly???? :x :O [woah] [where is it] :eek: :D
