Saphire black hole? *possible spoilers*

Post by sbchris05 »

I was running some missions off the carrier Phantom, near Erato in the Saphire system, when I spotted a strange icon on my map.

I warped directly to it, and I blew immediately, but not before I saw what looked exactly like a warp bubble, only without the metal ring around it or the guidance lights.

I tried it a few more times with no avail, even with elaborate orthogonal alignment. I was flying a Navy Wraith with x5 shield booster, and it crumpled like paper, where it ussualy stands up against capital ship missiles, never a caution light before exploding.

Anyone gotten through it?

Yup, it worth noting that not all black holes act as wormholes beyond their event horizon, these ones demand a slightly different technique, and is only good for showing off ( and for practising the 'fulcrum jump attack' ).

In fact there is a very good reason for learning the technique for getting through it. Either pop online and ask a pilot of help or u2u me for the technique
