Sansha Base

Unrated Β· difficulty rank 9Null SecuritySansha's Nation

Sansha Base is a combat site that can be scanned down with probes in null security Sansha regions. The site is behind an acceleration gate. Warping to the side lands you at 0 on the gate. Bring a MWD or long-range weapons, as the enemies all spawn very far away. Completing the site chages your Sansha standing by -0.3
