| − | [[Category:Exploration]] | + | #REDIRECT [[Cosmic Anomaly]] |
| − | A Cosmic Anomaly is a hidden site guarded by [[Rat|NPC pirates]], [[Drones]] or even Sleepers (in wormhole space), which players can find and eliminate the hostile NPC's inside. A Cosmic Anomaly is part of the [[exploration]] feature. Cosmic Anomaly encounters are not as difficult as their Cosmic Signature counterparts but can still give substantial rewards. There is a low possibility of NPC Faction Commander appearing providing special loot, as well as a small chance to start an Escalation which then would appear in the expeditions tab of your [[Mission Journal]].

| − | Unlike [[Cosmic_Signatures|cosmic signatures]], anomalies do not appear in a [[Deadspace|Deadspace]] zone and allows MWD to work.

| − | == Scanning ==
| + | |
| − | Cosmic anomalies can be found without any extra modules and skills by using the on-board scanner equipped in every ship other than [[Capsule|capsules]]. The on-board scanner scans nearby space within 64 AU for cosmic anomalies and return the result after 10 seconds of scanning. One can also utilize scan probes to find anomalies, only one probe is required for anomalies and it will provide a warp-in point for any anomalies within its scan range, making it easier to find all anomalies within a system. Please consult the [[Apocrypha Probing|Scanning Guide]] for detailed instructions on using scan probes.

| − | == Levels ==
| + | |
| − | There are 10 different types of Anomaly Class ranging from Class 1 (easiest) to Class 10 (hardest).
| + | |

| − | * Class 1 = (Faction) Hideaway or Drone Cluster (easiest)

| + | |
| − | * Class 3 = (Faction) Refuge or Drone Gathering
| + | |
| − | * Class 4 = (Faction) Den or Drone Assembly

| − | * Class 5 = (Faction) Yard or Drone Surveillance

| − | Each Anomaly Class has 4 different level's ranging from Level 1 (easiest) to Level 4 (hardest).
| + | |
| − | * Level 1 = (Faction name) + Anomaly Class (easiest)
| + | |
| − | * Level 2 = (Faction name) Hidden + Anomaly Class

| − | | + | |
| − | It's not uncommon to find the same type of Anomaly Class with different Level's located in the same system. For example - (Faction) Hideaway, (Faction) Hidden Hideaway, (Faction) Forlorn Hideaway and (Faction) Forsaken Hideaway can all spawn in the same system along with other types of Anomaly Class.

| − | The NPC pirate faction occupying the anomaly depends on the pirate faction of the area you are scanning. Drone anomalies can be found anywhere in New Eden. Null-security systems with active infrastructure upgrades should generate a constant presence of anomalies at different levels.

| − | == Wormhole Space ==
| + | |
| − | Cosmic Anomaly can also be found in wormhole space. These anomalies are guarded by sleeper drones and are much harder to complete without proper ships and skills.
