Conflict Zone (Signal Source)s are temporary warzones that occur wherever factions are raging civil war against each other. Upon entering from supercruise conflict zones are randomly populated with NPC ships of the warring factions.
At any time players can join the battle in conflict zones, and temporarily fight for a side of their choice, by setting the preferred faction in-game in the Systems panel under Functions.
Combat and Rewards
Between bounties and combat vouchers combat in conflict zones can be a profitable venture.
During times of civil war the various factions hand out combat missions through the bulletin board which call for the destruction of certain opposing targets in conflict zones (referred to in combat missions as Warzones).
For each destroyed ship combat vouchers are rewarded and which, in turn, can be redeemed for credits at any station in the star system.
The following table gives an overview of the expected rewards for redeeming combat vouchers which depend for the most part upon ship type. In general it goes that heavier ships yield higher rewards.
Ship Reward (CR) Eagle Mk. II 4,000 Empire Fighter 2,000 F63 Condor 2,000 Imperial Clipper 22,000 Cobra Mk. III 8,000 Viper Mk III 10,000 Asp Explorer 14,000 Vulture 18,000 Python 26,000 Anaconda 36,000
Notes
- Conflict zones show up automatically as locations in the Navigation panel if the player is close enough with the ship.
- For some reason conflict zones are referred to as Warzones in the in-game descriptions of combat missions.
- Almost all NPCs spawning in conflict zones are fighters aligned with either of the warring factions.
