The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' expedition is an [[Escalating encounters|escalation]] of the [[Gurista Hideout]] combat site found by [[Probing]] for [[exploration guide|exploration sites]]. This expedition consists of four locations in different systems in high sec.
  
==Sooth Sayer==
+
The expedition begins with the destruction of the Experimental Weapon Tower in a [[Gurista Hideout]], with this message:
 +

''The ships are at 200+km and will warp out as soon as you enter the 2nd Pocket. At this point you either receive a message with the location of the follow up or the expedition ends.''

These are called Escalations and normally escalate further and further, eventually sending you on a final trip to Low Security Space.
+
:?
These Final complexes are dangerous not only because of the NPC enemies but as well due to player pirates roaming the area and scanning your ship down but the rewards can include special pirate modules like p.e. the Pithum-C-Type Shield Hardeners or even pirate-modded POS/pirate ship Blueprints.
 
Note also that Escalation "Trees" might lead to a "Dead End" which would result in you getting no further escalation messages for that escalation path. This can even be achieved by shooting ships at the wrong time.}}

The Escalation consists of a Deadspace Pocket with a cloud of bright, brown Dust. Therein hide Eha Hidaiki and his/her two companions, far away from the warpin beacon, who quickly warp off to an unknown direction. The entrance gate is lightly guarded by:

It seems the strange, buzzing sound emanating from the left Navigation Panel from time to time did not come from the Navigation Computer at all. At least he retrieved the position of the enemy frigates fairly accurately... Well, actually, not accurate enough - they warp off immediately after noticing you entering the pocket. Luckily, the electronics can provide you with a good idea of where they might be hiding this time...

''Same as before, the ships are at 200+km and will warp out as soon as you enter the 2nd Pocket. At this point you either receive a message with the location of the follow up or the  expedition ends.''
This is pretty much the same as last time. You warp in on top of the stargate which is this time defended by:
 
* 1x Dread Guristas Despoiler
 
* 4x Pithi Demolisher
 
* 4x Pithior Supremacist

Once again you miss the correct warp parameters and the Gurista ships disappear right before your eyes. But it seems it is your lucky day: they leave behind trails which are hard to overlook and you quickly figure out where they are hiding.

But finally, you get to kill 2 of the 3 enemy frigates. The named one, Eha, is still running. Inside the pocket you will find:

While being able to fight the two ships you could get a hold of, the third one managed to escape again. Unfortunately this time, your systems are unable to track him down. But, after desperately searching the logs, you find a distress signal containing its position...
