Threat 4 distress call signal source = capital ship or two

[operant]

That was a first!
Stopped at a threat 4 distress call. Usual 3-6 enemy.
Then a capital ship appeared - thought from the sound it was a thargoid 'bellow', at first. Or perhaps there were two capital ships. I was too busy fitting the new hoards that appeared with it/them.
And to think I was just quietly hunting for engineering mats.
Wow. Fun. Please nerf immediately.

Yep, had this happen. Scared the crap out of me when it happened.

USS TL4 Yes. Dropped in on beaucoup bad boys claiming the spoils, and they told me to scram. One scanned me and saw my tasty cargo that I use to bait pirate scum into interdicting me and opened fire. Deployed SLF and the fray was on. Took one down, but the 'Conda was nailing me, and his mates were on me when BAM! TWO Farragut Class cruisers appeared... and I'm right between them. I inadvertently flew into their beams and my shields went down instantly. Decided to didi on out of there. Python too slow to follow, but two of his wingmates followed and were plinking me. SLF went down. So, I turned and engaged. After dispatching them, I went back to the two cruisers. They had destroyed the Annie and the rest of the pirates and were healing themselves.

Their sudden appearance was quite timely. I had my pick of the pirates' remains, wished the behemoths well, and went to the nearest station to wash my undies.

Nerf? Heck no. 2nd most excitement I've had all week.

Had my first encounter while answering a destress call, was nice to see the big ship jump in and help out with the hoard of pirates and then once the pirates were all dead and I was about to start collecting matt. He decided he did not like me and opened up on me lol, I had no fines or bountys managed to get away and jump with 15% health left lol,
