Barbican Hive (J110145)
'Barbican' — an outer fortification gate. One of the five Drifter hive systems; same two-track structure as the rest (see the Drifter Hives overview). Its Hikanta Tyrannos drops the CONFLUX Index — the cross-hive drop pattern that forces expeditions to tour multiple hives to open any vault. CAPTURE ERA (Apr-May 2025, corpus-verified): now LIBERATED BARBICAN under the Minmatar Republic — a Republic Base inside trades event materials (Eleutrium exchange documented). The wave/track detail below is the pre-capture 2015 layout.
