# Wightstorm Forward Base

Spawns in <span style="color: rgb(45, 194, 107);">HS </span>storms. Can be upgraded depositing a **Cryostorm Clarifier** into Sansha's Transit Modulator.

Base sites (no upgrade) spawn one wave of NPCs, followed by a boss with 2m ISK bounty. For upgraded sites about 30% more rats spawn with the wave, boss has 3m ISK bounty.

<p class="callout info">Completing the event-track through non-upgraded HS sites, yields about 400m ISK of loot and 100m bounty (on top of the event-track rewards). Takes about 5 hours without competition.</p>
