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

Cmdrs over here reported weapons fire sources level 6 in Deciat. Can anyone confirm and has anybody jumped into these signal sources?

Last night i found two weapons fire SS level 5 while cruising around in Deciat. Never seen these before. Dropped to them both. One was empty, and the other had a Pirate Mostly Harmless FDL. So, not much of a threat were they? At least these two...
 
Just got my Krait and as I was going to visit Farseer found my first NHSS threat 4. So seems like Thargoids are finally there!

Also Thargoid sympathizers. I think I'll go play PG this afternoon, not quite feeling like PVP.
 
I was able to find a Cyclops at the science Vessel in Deciat so that may be the best way to farm interceptors if that is what you are planning to do. I just killed one there myself a few minutes ago with my newly engineered krait.

I gave it one more try this morning and started finding nhss all over the place. A few of them were 6 level but I didn't try jumping into any of them as today was the first time I fought a Thargoid. I just went into a couple 4 level ones and one 5 level. On a side note the payout for fighting them is crap. I spent 130,000 cr on repairs and additional cr on restock, but I only earned 100,000 cr in combat bonds. Plus on top of that I didn't receive the full amount. I missed how much I actually got one the first run, but the second run I earned 40,000 cr but was only given 37,000 cr. Is this normal?

I did see a few level 6 unss last night, and the two times I went into one they were pirates. One was immediately hostile, the other was a group of 5 small to mid-sized fighters escorting a T6 that I would have went after had I been in my 'conda instead of my T10.
 
I was just chased away from the Aquarius Tanker at Deciat 6. I'd logged out after checking the tanker earlier, and heard the howl when I logged back in. I just backed away and left the goid to itself. It warped out after a while.

I don't know what sort it was.
 
Definately thargoids in Deciat now. Saw one NHSS (6 or 7) on the way to Farseer. I wasn't looking for any on purpose, this one happened to spawn in front of me.

Probably a Cyclops. It's what I see at the damaged science vessel in the system as well. Either way, those ships are a good way to get Cyclops if that's what you are aiming for.

Edit: Looks like it switched over to rescue ships in the area of these megaships now I guess. /shrug

Also I've seen nothing but scouts in the USS so I'm gonna bring my Vulture over.

Spotted all kinds of NHSS (3 to 6) in Deciat last night. Is it because of Felicity?

Can I guess the you have a fighter pilot contracted (active or otherwise)? Your contracted pilot takes a share of everything. Right. Off. The. Top. So, ED is finally showing us that in an off hand manner.

For mine, it is 10%. So, if I earn 100,000, I actually get to keep 90,000. The other 10,000 goes to miss elite fighty-pants, whether or not she is with me at the time.

Oh duh, I forgot about that.

Corrected ;), [edit] 2nd attempt...

Forget Deciat .. all right, not forget it, but neighbouring Xinca needs help against the Thargoids as well. I was going to restock there and I spotted NHSS. The highest threat level was 6, but I only checked like four of them.

Systems near targets are known to get NHSS. I thought it was 5 ly, though Xinca is nearly 6.

Medusa can also be found at Mega ships as can be seen here. I've killed a few bugs but I've spent most of my time in a posse looking for that bug lover Truffle Shuffle , don't care if I get killed, got the creds and while he's dodging my friends and I those better at slaying bugs are free to do so...
