It appears the entire event is bugged.

Data and combat sites don’t despawn after they’ve been completed as well

For this latest event, Capsuleer Day XXIII, just flood an are of space with multiple alts in fast warp frigates.

  • Find a Defense Grid site being run in high sec, or low sec is fine, it wont be hard as these ppl are stuck for at least 20 minutes running each site.
  • Create a safe spot within 1au of the site and wait.
  • When the extraction node spawns, warp in and steal the loot and then warp out.
  • Profit, with no repercussions or ways to be stopped.

Now just repeat this with every alt you have, and you can make many hundreds of the warpath intel items per hour, as many as other people can farm for you.

Best part is, all you have to do is keep flicking between screens while watching youtube and waiting for the extraction nodes to spawn.

And if you do this in HS, you’re untouchable in your 1m isk, insta align, frigate.

Then just take the loot back to the nearest station, undock, and go find the next sucker who’s doing all the work for you.

just spin up an alpha, put it into a gnosis, and go farm the elite npcs from the defense grids.
You’re not trying to capture the site, just kill the elites.

When the site fails after 25 minutes, move on and find a new one to farm.

Once that alpha has completed the event rewards, biomass it and spin up another.
