Observatory Flashpoint
EDENCOM / Empire NaviesPochven's flagship fleet anomaly: defend the Triglavian side against EDENCOM around a Stellar Observatory. Two defender waves build to a single empire Dreadnought that sieges every two minutes (+425% damage) and escalates to a fleet-wiping "super siege" if left alive too long. Its wreck drops the Dreadnought Systems Diagram key AND projects a 30-50 km warp-disruption bubble — salvage it, shoot it, or burn out. Killing the Dreadnought makes the Observatory vulnerable; destroying it completes the site and spawns the key-locked Triglavian schematic cache. Overcharge Pylons give +100% damage within 5 km. A ~60 km boundary is enforced by invulnerable Threshold Werpost sentries doing ~10,000 omni DPS with pinpoint tracking — do not drift out. Standing warning: any fleet member with NEGATIVE Triglavian standing gets the "friendly" Triglavian forces (including the Zirnitra that arrives after the Dreadnought dies) shooting your logistics.

- Found via
- Combat anomaly in Pochven (max three live in the region; a new one spawns elsewhere on completion)
- Ship restrictions
- T2 Battleship and below; payouts sized for 5-15 pilots
Run order (community, grade C)
- Warp-in: EDENCOM and Triglavian ships fighting at the gate; take the Observatory Assault Vector gate.
- Pocket: 1st EDENCOM wave guards the invulnerable Observatory; engaging spawns the 2nd wave; enough kills spawn the empire Dreadnought 40-80 km out.
- Dreadnought: sieges every 2 min for 3 min (+425% damage, EWAR-resistant); 12s fire rate, huge alpha, cruiser-class tracking — heavy tank over speed. Kill it before 'super siege'.
- Dread wreck: loot the Dreadnought Systems Diagram; the wreck's 30-50 km warp disruption field stays until salvaged or destroyed.
- Endgame: Observatory becomes vulnerable + two more waves + two Overcharge Pylons (+100% damage within 5 km; 8 ships at a pylon triggers the friendly Zirnitra's siege) — kill the Observatory, open the cache with the key.
- Aggro model: the Dreadnought and every EDENCOM wave pick targets independently — up to five fleet members under fire at once; logistics must expect scattered damage.

Payout C Single-source / unverified
ISK payout scales inversely with fleet size — community figures ~520M ISK/pilot at 5 pilots down to ~230M/pilot at 15 (over 15 pilots collapses the payout; to be paid you must be in-site, uncloaked, and have damaged the Observatory or repped someone who did). The cache (opened with the Dreadnought Systems Diagram; multiple keys = multiple opens) can hold Precursor Dreadnought / Capital Precursor Weapon skillbooks, a Zirnitra BPC, Supratidal Entropic Disintegrator BPC, XL Exotic Plasma Charge BPC or capital component BPCs.
Escalations
No escalations currently mapped. That is a statement about the Atlas, not the site. Mapping escalation chains is ongoing original research.
