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

Where did you see that? I don't see any system state on edsm.net at all

When I played ED yesterday and opened EDSM I could read that in the EDSM-window. Same this morning. So I went there (my Krait MKII is noticed on the system's website as a visitor within the past 24 hrs) and found nothing as I wrote above.
 
I'm in game & EDSM now, are you looking at the state by the minor factions? That's the only one I see....

I didn't open edsm.net but just clicked on the edsm icon in the task bar. Then this small window (down on the left) opened
and where the patrol proposal is Ross 596 was indicated to be infested . After I was there and found nothing I gave the information to EDSM and another proposal appeared inside the small window. Well, I think we should leave it with that.

That's EDMC, and probably more specifically the USS plugin maintained by LCU, who isn't bothering to keep it updated if it was still showing Ross 596. Nothing to do with EDSM at all (other than that EDMC uploads to EDSM). At least we know what you mean now - thx!
 
Lol, got it now too :).

LCU updated his plug in just a couple of weeks ago or so.
Actually, I'm pretty sure his plugin doesn't mention system state, that must be some other plugin. My EDMC & LCU plugin doesn't have that EDSM link at the bottom.
 
One Infestation down, one to go:

JohnTass has been updating the state on the spreadheet lately while I have been busy with other things. If the system states are out of date let me know and I will update. Its in the patrol section and you will only see it if the infested system s close to you
 
I've been fighting in the Bhagutsuk AX sites for the last couple of days and had a lot of fun killing scouts. I'm using this : Krait MK2

Questions:

1). When the interceptors come in is there anything I can do other than fly out and reset it? I've tried scanning them but with the 500m range on the xeno scanner the best I can get to is about 60% before it drops off.
2). Once this morning there was a warning that interceptors were coming in but they never appeared and I could keep killing scouts until my armor melted. Does this happen a lot or is there any way to make this happen? Was so much fun. (Really should be LOW (Just Scouts and occasional easier interceptors) and HIGH (Mixed) threat AX zones IMO)
4). Is there anything that would improve my Ship? (Guardian weapons?, how much of an improvement would they be?)

Thanks.

Replace the smallest slots with decontamination limpet controller and cargo rack (for limpets), you will be able to stay longer in the zone as long you have mats for limpet synthesis once you run out of them.
You would want two gauss cannons instead of regular MC.
Don't bother with scanning them, you can see their hull % and number of hearts with it scanning, you just cant target the hearts, with gauss cannon this won't be a problem.

This is what I'm using: https://s.orbis.zone/1tt1
 
This is a great ideia, I hope FD implements AX CZs like the other CZs with varying levels of difficulty and rewards:

HIP 2843 gets an incursion as expected (it was infested last week). Makes sense.

Madrus does not get an incursion (despite also being infested) - maybe because it has no large starports to be attacked?? Kinda expected that FDev hadn't added models for outpost / settlement attack, so kinda expected.

HR 1172 gets an incursion, despite having a zero human population. It was targeted by Eagle Eye last week, but only contains an (already) attacked settlement. Unexpected.

Pleiades Sector HR-W d1-42 has no incursion - despite also being targeted by Eagle Eye last week. It has no population, so we didn't expect an incursion, but then why was HR 1172 attacked and not this system - and why was it in Eagle Eye at all?

Curious week. New Infested systems should should up in a changed Eagle Eye in a few hours.

Some stations are still burning... for 4 weeks now? A patch came out today, soo is there a new gameplay for rescuing stations, like they only change to the next state if we rescue enough people, or Devs just forgot about them? Or are they still going to change today, but the BGS didnt updated yet?

They mentioned Cavalieri in the patch notes, is there anyone around to check if its still bugged? I'm at HIP 2843...

I visited Cavalieri to see if there was any clue how to get it repairing - nothing out of the ordinary. No crashes either.

EE are updating, stay tuned for an update once I have them all - not looking good for the Pleiades :(
 
Eagle Eyes:

ee1 celaeno celaeno
ee2 pleione pleione
ee3 atlas atlas
ee4 hip 117960 hip 117960 hip 117960 hip 117960
ee5 nian nian nian nian
ee6 ross 596 ross 596 ross 596 ross 596

No sign of infestation in these systems, which have all previously been infested & had the infestation cleared. Well, apart from HIP 117960, which also had an incursion (which was cleared) and currently has a station on fire (as are all the attacked stations since 3.3 launched).

Is EE5 taunting us?
 
Could you please point me if there's any coordination center for AX activity?
AX conflict zones too complex for me at this point.
I can survive NHSS thread 4 easily.
I don't feel myself strong enought against interceptor's (I prefer to escape).
And I would like to mess around in AX Conflict zone with real people.

Look into the AXI on Discord, thats the Anti-Xeno Initiative. They should have a post somewhere on these Alien subforums too...
