EVE Online – Catalyst
A failed experiment on the enigmatic Drifter Gates has destabilized spacetime, causing Hyperspace Fractures to appear across New Eden. These short-lived anomalies reveal Phased Asteroids rich in a volatile new resource, Prismaticite, an erratic ore that reprocesses into random minerals in unpredictable quantities. Outer Ring Excavations (ORE) engineers have unveiled Phase Anchor technology, a deployable system that stabilizes fractured asteroids for coordinated mining.
- Hyperspace Fractures and Prismaticite: Explore volatile, time-limited rifts to locate Phased Asteroids rich in Prismaticite, a new erratic ore type. Players can test their luck with random reprocessing or choose a different base mineral for Prismaticite to reprocess into, giving them increased agency for fueling the mining industry and impacting EVE Online's player-driven economy.
- 'Pioneer' Mining Destroyer: The first of its kind, bridging the gap between mining frigates and barges. Designed for accessibility, this ship can be piloted by Alpha clones and upgraded by Omegas, offering an accessible gateway to EVE Online's industrial gameplay.
- 'Odysseus' Exploration Command Ship: A long-range vessel built for deep-space expeditions, enabling veteran explorers to lead extended missions into uncharted regions.
- Mining UI/UX Overhaul: Mining cycles are faster and more immersive, featuring a refreshed scanning overlay and a 2D ore availability map. The tactical, easy-to-read 2D map provides capsuleers with improved system visualization, clear jump ranges, and dual data overlays, offering precise navigation and sharper insights for exploration. Both 2D and 3D maps will feature ore availability indicators, enhanced data readability, and customizable scales for greater clarity in every view.
- Mining Mutaplasmids and Critical Hits: New customization and yield-boosting systems make resource extraction more unpredictable, engaging, and rewarding.
- PLEX Transaction Logs: Personal PLEX histories introduce transparency to the in-game economy.
- Carrier Balancing and Visual Refresh: Empire carriers receive notable balance adjustments and updated visuals in response to player feedback.
