How to run

On warp-in, a 20 second timer starts before the first wave arrives.

"Infinite"Keep (30the waves)Info wavePanel spawnersection invisible nonduring deaththe space.site, there is valuable information about the site-state!

After each wave, one can decide to shootkill the Rampant Fabricator with the lootstructure to end the site, or wait for the next wave. Each subsequent wave gets harder and adds to the loot. LootBetween the waves, there's a 15 second timer that makes the Rampant Fabricator vulnerable. The Rampant Fabricator can be cargo-scanned.scanned for current loot state. All loot is lost if a wave cannot be defeated. Maximum number of waves is 30.
Damage to tank is EM/Therm,Thermal, damage to deal is EM. Earlier waves contain frigates, destroyers which can jam, later they can be joined by cruisers and battlecruisers (some can web), followed by spawns containing battleships (some web/neut). 
Generally the smaller entities stay around 20km away, bigger entities come in closer. Eliminate the jammers first, followed by whatever bothers your setup most.

The Rampant Fabricator has quite some HP,hit-points, reduce that HPthese while you have time between the early waves, so you can insta-pop it when needed!

Once the Rampant Fabricator is destroyed, the site's penalties change to "no cloak" and "no warp". within 20 km of the wreck. Destroy the wreck or get out of range (20km)

AtWith waves 4, 8 and 16, a random selection of 2 "Nanoswarms"(out of the 12 present) Nanoswarm Suspension structures at the bottom of the dungeon will become active and the player can chose which Nanoswarm to shoot.vulnerable. Each Nanoswarm Suspension provides a unique buff to the player's ship when destroyed. Only 1 Nanoswarm Suspension per selection can be destroyed.

The site scales with the ships the player brings.
