Yes, but you dont see them from another system. When you jump in, you are in for a surprise. No warning message, no nothing.
That is not really any different from a player based gate-camp. There is the map, which gives a murky idea of what might be in the next system though.
I think it is possible that CCP is, as I said, looking to bring gate camping to all areas of space in a manner that doesn’t require the removal of Concord. Being that the wormholes can spawn anywhere in New Eden, the push seems to be to force people to have scouts in throw away ships/pods 100% of the time.
I don’t roam in Null, but I’d be interested to know if this sort of NPC activity would affect ratting or other activities in Null that people currently do without much fear of being attacked, and if so, is this one of the measures against botting?
Yes and Yes. Trigs are actively patrolling their space.
I am interested to see if the anti-gankers will eventually abandon their efforts against other players and start focusing on managing the Triglavian gate camps.

More likely they’ll pay for a second or third Omega account and just use a throw-away scout. This is probably CCP’s end goal. More money.

Who’s afraid of a little Triglavian gate camp?

I’ll just say that this situation with roaming Triglavian NPC fleet camping at jump gates in high sec is just disgusting and cannot be justified by any means. I’ve already submitted support ticket asking for explanation, because right now, this mess with Triglavian WH and their “guarding” fleet lack any of logic rational approach to the subject.

The solar systems that used to be in the vicinity of Raravoss has seen five trig wormholes in the past five days. There have been losses on gates, belts and stations. This is not like a player gank, where the ganking pilot has a small amount of time to apply enough dps to kill you. You might encounter a trig fleet with scrams and webs when you jump through a hi sec gate, and no one is coming to your aid and there is no time limit on how long they take to destroy you. This pretty well curtails activity in the area as pilots contemplate moving out or maybe moving on to a different venue of entertainment.
I have no idea why CCP wants to keep rendering useless some players huge investment of time and currency to get to a certain level of expertise and productivity in New Eden by all these radical changes. It is almost like they are trying to fail.

Probably because some metrics somewhere show that a comany can make 0.0000001% more profit per quarter due to people just pulling out their credit card to catch up from their losses.
At this point, I’m surprised they opted for wormholes and didn’t just add a mechanic where there’s a random chance the star gate will “malfunction” and you simply get completely destroyed upon using it.
Damn that’s nasty, don’t give em ideas xd.
By default trigs are hostile, so if you didnt play, you will be ganked by them. You would first have to visit Pochven to fix your standings, like every new player, 1 day old or actually an alt.
Tha’s not gonna happen visiting Pochven is off the table maybe on my alt. My mains stay neutral triggs can fire all they want I have the capabilities to remain indifferent.
Give it a year or two. Highsec Trigs will be about as scary are regular belt rats and you will hardly ever see a werpost, or they will be so wimpy they won’t even get through your shields.
I just had a thought, that change might have been made just to show some big boss there, that devs actuallly had some success to show with participation numbers with Pochven.
I’d rather they make hunting them worth the time.
At the very least they could have Trig wormholes marked differently on the probe scanner so when entering a system it’s clear when you come into the system that you’re playing Russian Roulette.
