Thargoid invasion - Next target systems?
- Thread starter Aleks Zuno
- Start date
Short interim status: SNPX has collected 2500 samples for Liu Huang so far. Based on the current system progress of 59%, we still need approx. 1100 samples (purchase: SNPX ISS Nadira in Cephei Sector BV-Y b2). This should be doable tomorrow, but every help - spire site action oder harvesting - is very welcome.
Victories in Col 285 Sectors OS-T d3-69, TS-H b11-2, XY-F b12-6, YT-F b12-2, MG-E b12-2 and OS-T d3-136, Ceti Sector BQ-Y b4, Hyades Sector NT-I b9-4 and Arietis Sector MX-U c2-19! That completes the M. Cocijo periphery along with half of its weakened systems, and finishing that empty system at M. Thor has removed an attack in the classic sense¹.
Finally M. Leigong loses those three Matrix systems which have been blocking its Peripheral places for a while, noting that it has still one more remaining at Hyades Sector KN-K b8-3 which is also good to remove. Beyond that, it has two further in—if M. Leigong receives regular attention in upcoming weeks, INIV will attempt to manage the evictions² such that HIP 9180 can be used to clear the entire area rather than being caught along with Arietis Sector YE-R b4-3, although notably such can be done without it.
Consider HIP 20024 and HIP 7819 warranted!
1. By chance the M. Thor attacks are disparate beyond its perimeter that it chooses to waive one attack, but this forces the matter!
2. I imagine completing Arietis Sector NX-U c2-20 normally would move HIP 9180 from seventh- to sixth-closest, helping HIP 8033 become Peripheral later.

HIP 20024 is done, HIP 7819 is collected for delivery this evening, and we have just dropped as two pairs to complete the more tightly-packed four of those M. Cocijo systems!
I noticed that earlier, well before we would have started! If you are able to run a Spire party and maximise the M. Oya periphery, I would be quite happy to add Akbakara and HIP 8525 to the list.
Noted—all together that places us at around 30% done, which is well ahead for week 49 not having started yet!
Thinking forward a bit and noting that even the Matrix system at M. Taranis has surpassed 200%, would it be possible to invite the Orthrus massacre party over to M. Hadad after M. Taranis is done? My thought is that HIP 29226 was a quite strong bridge cleared this week, and it would be quite nice if that system becomes peripheral before it enters Alert again.

My first glance FASTEST "recapture rate" case analysist. AKA Bears getting greedy. We would be careful to take into consideration that the Spires are a finite resource. Looking at that logic. From AXI's footprint, we're looking at where we will be in 2 weeks if this continues and whether or not INIV and AXI have accumulated the pre-staged samples in time to take the remaining 15% of difficult captures.
Ie. Swahku (100% = 115k samples before Spire action, and 85% after spire action results in -> 15% = 17k Samples).
INIV and AXI are pre-gather samples for that week.
Have considerations been taken for the others?? If not, then a coordinated attack on spires may be better. However, the caveat is that the titans become stacked, more than we can handle, on any particular accumulated week. I put an "Attack Order" Column in the image as a 'what does the community think' statistic.
I know AXI will be sending forces to the other more plush Titans to allow us and INIV time to gather the sample numbers required, once that week is ready for turn in.

Victories in Liu Huang (well done SNPX!), HIPs 20024, 7819 and 19789, Hyades Sectors KN-K b8-3 (thank you!) and AR-J a10-0, and Col 285 Sectors VN-H b11-5, VN-H b11-6, KM-V d2-53 and KM-V d2-52—that was seventy-eight systems this week, assuming M. Indra is not still losing more! Speaking of M. Indra, the revived Hyades Sector AV-O b6-5 Overachievement Award goes to Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 for reporting 343%.
In just a half-week the Operation Deleted collection has week 49 ready in advance, being ~20% of the total, and the extra at Swahku becomes ~30% of the total. The next action needed is another Periphery completion at M. Taranis, during which we should have a good amount gathered for Hupang, held until week 50.
Regarding the full clearance difficulty, there is a bit more to consider than just the strength of the innermost systems:

Regarding the full clearance difficulty, there is a bit more to consider than just the strength of the innermost systems:
- Where lies the innermost Spire?
Despite being sixth for M. Taranis, it is relatively lucky—for example, the final Spire at M. Indra is twelfth, at which point I would plan to stockpile Titan rescues. Conversely, at M. Hadad the final Spire is also the closest system. If all Alerts are prevented (as opposed to repelled after they occur) then the final Spire can get away with being tenth; if none are prevented then it requires some prior non-Peripheral clearance to move the Spire up to fifth. - Is Peripheral progress needed to clear it all?
Certainly it helps, but consider that we were planning to clear away all of M. Leigong since prior to update 16, contingent on the outcome of Operation Redacted of course. Ironically, that would have been complete by now were it not for the Matrix systems blocking the path! It could be worth taking a look at the Maelstrom Maps thread; if you download and view the maps for M. Taranis and M. Leigong, you will see why M. Taranis needs an eviction storm with Peripheral progress, and why M. Leigong does not.
- I think its discounted system difficulty is being overestimated; it would be quite fine to complete its periphery every week, we will see the finale approaching, and I believe it would need stockpiling for a single system at most. Notably, its strongest system has been nullified by becoming a Matrix system.
- Given that we are holding territory there, I would quite like at periphery completions for at least a few weeks, just so that the contested systems are among those outer ten.
I took into consideration where lies the most inner Spires. Premise behind trying to evaluate what a worst case scenario. Its not just their strength, but time given towards their difficult systems to take. Do we have the ability to work on 3 Titans simultaneously in 2 weeks?. That's always the outcome in my mind and being able to efficiently take the sample train where it needs it the most based upon player activities at the spires.
They're doing pretty good imo and QUICK. Just want to be prepared and not overlap systems like the Oya, Leigong, and Taranis are given +- a week, dependent upon player activities there.
As long as there is a plan established not to overlap as best as possible imo. I'd be cool with it. Aren't the Titan Rescues still 1:5?

In terms of difficulty, I'd place Taranis and Leigong as the easy ones (Leigong being the easier of the two - as Aleks says, that really just needs the spires getting out of the way to be in reach of entirely conventional methods)
Then Hadad (spire is innermost, relatively loosely connected uninhabited inner core)
Then Thor or Oya (both a lot tougher, but theoretically possible? Thor looks easier if you can guarantee discipline around not destroying its in-most spire too soon, which might be tricky ... Oya has a lot more high-difficulty systems but it's also got better positioned spires for this sort of thing)
Then the other three are giant tangled nightmares of connected inner cores and will need some very careful planning. No harm in trimming them down to ~15 LY before then, of course.

Rescues were changed in update 17; they were worth a fifth-strength for the Counterstrike systems, but now they give a percentage for the Peripheral systems. The amount needed is somewhere around 66000 for 100%, or closer to 56000 for the maximum 85%; I updated this at the top of the thread quite recently:
Indeed; luckily some Maelstroms are simply too far away from their final Spire at the moment, so I think we can focus on the imminent cases.
M. Leigong clearly is next, and it will need limited attention; a full Periphery clearance this week would be not ideal, for it would leave only 2–3 Alerts and place both remaining Matrix systems in the next Periphery. I believe the good approach is:
- Complete or progress significantly the Periphery, then recapture only Arietis Sector AQ-P b5-0 and HIP 9643, leaving Obassi Osaw and others alone for now. This also will reduce Alerts by two, for a total progression of four systems, such that the next Periphery will include Arietis Sector YE-R b4-3 but will narrowly exclude HIP 9180.
- Probably at some point if needed, clear Arietis Sector NX-U c2-20 as non-Peripheral, moving HIP 9180 from seventh to sixth.

AXI adjusting attack order for spires on our side. Taranis moving to #2. 2 weeks to gather all them samples at that rate. We're over the 6k mark on Swahku. This will help unstack the titans as well. Once we get 'Swahku' completed, let us know where else we can assert efforts for Taranis.
The community pushed last week's Indra spire pretty hard, approximately 200%+. We'll have to keep a better track on it from ourside as well. We pushed the fellas in comms to 4 titans last week. Looks to be the going average per cycle.

As revealed by reported Matrix system progress with M. Thor also complete but unknowable, we had:
| Maelstrom | System | Report |
| Indra | Hyades Sector DX-H a11-1 | 343% |
| Taranis | Trianguli Sector EQ-Y b0 | 216% |
| Cocijo | Col 285 Sector YT-F b12-2 | 114% |
| Leigong | Hyades Sector KN-K b8-3 | 111% |
I suppose it also keeps things contained a bit, given that the Periphery can only move by a fixed number of systems that way, and that it will catch up with the Alert placements eventually.
That will be plenty for Swahku already; we will be quite far ahead! Regarding the Periphery progress at M. Taranis, would completion be possible by the end of Saturday? Hupang ought to be all gathered onto V's carrier by then, and I would like to deliver mine (containing four systems this week) so it is ready for starting HR 1737.
Always impressively swift the moment the new Alerts appear, victories in Arietis Sectors LM-V b2-3 and JR-V b2-1, 58 Tauri, Col 285 Sectors OS-T d3-105, SW-D b12-2, YT-F b12-6 and ZT-F b12-8, and Hyades Sector FB-N b7-3!
Operation Deleted awaits the Periphery reaching maximum progress at M. Taranis, and needs ultimately a Matrix system completion—for example, at Trianguli Sector BA-A d85. Stored progress also reaches well into week 50; we have 10000 for Swahku and 3000 for Hupang, and GXI has offered kindly to adopt the stockpile for HR 1737!

I've seen some test results on Discord from Dark Session that suggest the effectiveness of peripheral actions has reduced.
Corroborating this, total peripheral progress is currently around 34%, which would come out in the 250-300% range at the end of the week depending on weekend boosts, which seems about a third of last week's pace, and would need good distribution to complete any spires in a single week (though Indra is currently on pace to, and Thor with no peripheral spires should hit the cap for the rest).
(Bio storage was ~65,000 in previous tests)Dark Session's results said:

For @Starsong and @Medi0cr3, and perhaps also @KuzSan, the above needs to be noted quite quickly! By all means pause any stored progress, with which we are very much ahead, for with an approximate halving of Peripheral progress we will need a M. Taranis focus much sooner than planned!
Additional: There is also another reason why we need a fast completion—if the rate has changed, I am wary of the possibility that the maximum percentage may have changed. Granted, this would not make sense given that 85% appeared to be chosen so that the highest-strength systems match the known individual completion rates, but not everything makes sense and we need to know swiftly whether it is still 85% and not 80%, for example.
