Quick answers
Where is the Frontier Barracks in EVE Online?
The Frontier Barracks spawns in wormhole space (C4 systems). How you find it: anomaly.
What spawns in the Frontier Barracks?
The Frontier Barracks has 3 waves and about 16 NPCs: 7 battleships, 6 cruisers and 3 frigates. Killing the trigger ship spawns the next wave; the triggers are Sleepless Preserver and Sleepless Upholder.
What should I tank and shoot in the Frontier Barracks?
The heaviest wave in the Frontier Barracks deals about 1,472 DPS and the site holds about 589,460 EHP to grind through. Up to 3 NPCs scram at once, so you cannot simply warp out. Peak capacitor neutralising is about 30 GJ/s.
What ship do I need for the Frontier Barracks?
As a rule of thumb, tanking the heaviest wave of the Frontier Barracks in full (about 1,472 DPS) takes a battleship or marauder. Its NPCs scram, so if your tank breaks you cannot simply warp out. Pulling waves carefully lowers what you need to tank.
How much is the Frontier Barracks worth?
The Frontier Barracks is worth about 86.7M ISK in blue loot at current prices.
