XenoThreat Returns
Defend Against the Assault on Stanton!
The air crackles with tension, and the weight of countless lives hangs in the balance. In recent weeks, outlaw group XenoThreat has launched its most brutal campaign of violence in the Stanton system yet, and the Navy has once again called upon all brave pilots to help combat the scourge. The culmination of weeks of relentless struggle against the insidious XenoThreat incursion has arrived - the XenoThreat Global Event in Star Citizen Alpha 3.23.
Read on for more details about what to expect in this server-wide event, helpful tips and guides, and how to prepare for the impending attack. You can find the mission briefings, regular updates on the event's state, and the exclusive CDF reputation rewards here.
Are you new to Star Citizen? Visit our New Player Guide first for tips on getting started, and return here after you've mastered the basics.
Who is XenoThreat?XenoThreat is a Human outlaw group based in the Pyro system known for a violently anti-alien and anti-corporate ideology. Law enforcement believes that the group is primarily formed of corrupt ex-members of the United Empire of Earth (UEE) military. Most of its criminal activity was concentrated in the Pyro system until 2949, when systems connected to Pyro, such as Stanton and Terra, began to report on raids led by members of XenoThreat.
The XenoThreat EventThe XenoThreat Global Event is a server-wide event unfolding over several action-packed and engaging phases.
The Navy's Aegis Javelin destroyer, UEES War Hammer, is being restocked at INS Jericho Station, near the Stanton-Pyro Jump Point. Unfortunately, XenoThreat has been intercepting and destroying supply convoys, so the Navy is requesting CDF assistance retrieving the scattered cargo and delivering it to Jericho Station. As XenoThreat forces are still at large, combat support is also needed while resupplying the Navy flagship to keep attackers at bay.
As soon as War Hammer is restocked and ready for combat, you will engage XenoThreat's capital-class ships and dangerous fighter escorts in an effort to drive them out of the Stanton System.
Phase 1With XenoThreat's declaration of war, you are called upon to join the Civilian Defense Force (CDF) to eliminate this threat to the Stanton system.
Phase 2The message from Special Agent Rowena Dulli, the CDF coordinator, orders you to report to the INS Jericho military station, which is located in the vicinity of the Stanton-Pyro Jump Point. All help is needed to fight back against XenoThreat, so it doesn't matter what ship you pilot or whether you go in a group or alone.
In this phase, you're tasked with protecting and resupplying the UEES War Hammer, a Javelin destroyer docked at INS Jericho. The supplies are available approximately 600 km away in a wreck site of destroyed Navy ships. Caution is advised on approach, as XenoThreat ground troops may still linger. The materials can be found in secure containers in the cargo hold or floating around the wreck site; all with different properties.
We would recommended bringing along a MultiTool with a tractor-beam attachment to handle some of the containers, as you won't be able to do so by hand. Note, however, that XenoThreat is highly active in this area, so always watch your back or bring security. While you're off gathering supplies, the Javelin docked at the station may also be attacked by XenoThreat. It must be defended at all costs, as it cannot protect itself while the resupply is running.
Once you've got the cargo on board, travel back to Jericho Station and hand it in at one of the terminals. When all the required materials have been collected and handed in, the next phase of the event begins.
Phase 3As soon as the supplies are replenished, the UEES War Hammer will fight alongside you against XenoThreat, who have brought an Idris and several escorts. With combined firepower, you must face the waves of attack and ensure that XenoThreat are stopped.
The Resupply MaterialsDuring Phase 2 of the Global Event, you will be tasked to deliver four types of materials, some of which possess a certain instability.
These instabilities will be triggered when the materials are obtained. Keep reading to learn more about what to look out for.

We offer this Universe to the World as a place to study and a place to meet A vacant Breathable planet with a Breathable atmosphere. Even though it's unsuitable for Smuggling, the UPE has prohibited corporations from Exploiting the planet inhabiting: That's a word that hasn't been associated much with Xi'An "Maybe you should have a Pirate have a look at you. Be sure." said Cal Mason
Zeta-Prolanide"See the timer? When that hits zero it'll be worthless."
Zeta-Prolanide is an industrial reactant chemical that has found widespread use in neutralizing irradiated materials. Due to its volatility, it must be kept in an electrically charged state. It will lose integrity outside of containment, eventually leading to a rapid exothermic reaction. The current deterioration state is displayed on the container display.
Zeta-Prolanide degrades over time until breaking down completely (Time Sensitive).
AcryliPlex Composite"Careful with that one. Acryliplex is extremely explosive if damaged."
AcryliPlex Composite is a moldable material used in the construction of explosives. In addition to being commonly used in demolition applications for heavy industry and mining, it is also used to create small, potent warheads. Care must be taken while transporting larger quantities of the composite as it is impact and heat sensitive.
AcryliPlex Composite becomes explosively unstable if damaged (Damage Sensitive).
Diluthermex"Whatever you do, don't try and quantum travel with that on board."
Diluthermex is an extremely heat resistant epoxy often used in the mounting and repair of ship thrusters. It is considered very difficult to transport in its uncured state as it becomes explosively unstable when exposed to Chan-Eisen fields during quantum travel. Specialized containers must be used to safely transport the epoxy over long distances. Once set and cured, Diluthermex is no longer reactive.
Diluthermex releases a destructive energy pulse if exposed to quantum travel (Quantum Travel Sensitive).
DynaFlex“DynaFlex? Really hard to bust. It’ll bend like hell, and then bend a little more before it even thinks about breaking.”
Developed for use by the military, this absorptive material can withstand severe stress owing to its extreme flexibility. DynaFlex is known for its application in scalable armor reinforcement, well suited to large ships and vehicles, as well as personal body protection, but its natural tractability and toughness render it an incredibly versatile material across the UEE.
The Power of CommunityWhether you're teaming up with a veteran community guide, or browsing the community created tutorial videos on the Welcome Hub, the Star Citizen community has always been a beacon of comradery for new players! Below you'll find a few tips & tricks, tutorials, and screenshots coming directly from your fellow citizens. Keep in mind that help is only one chat message away in-game... but be careful... not every player operates on the bright side of the law...
How To PlayWhile there is no right or wrong way to approach the XenoThreat Dynamic Event, we've collected a few tips that should help you go through the different phases and come out victorious. Before you begin with your travel toward the Pyro Gateway station, be sure to take on the "Call To Arms" mission to maximize your profits. With this mission active, the CDF will compensate you for taking down NPCs and players with a CrimeStat.
And speaking of the law, always watch your fire to avoid getting a CrimeStat yourself. You don't want to be twiddling your thumbs at the Klescher Rehabilitation Facility while your friends take down XenoThreat and reap all the rewards!
Approaching the Wreck SiteBefore entering a Starfarer wreck to search for the resupply materials you should always intiate a scan. Hit V for scanning mode and hold down the left mouse button to start scanning. This will reveal the number of containers and any enemy pirates on board! Even if you do know the number of enemies, sometimes things can go south, so make sure you bring some medical equipment and weaponry.
After clearing the wrecks, power up the generator and open the cargo bay doors. For more effortless loading, position your ship so the cargo bay door faces the cargo door of the wreck. Don't forget to also check the wreck site thoroughly as some containers might be floating among the debris.
Cargo LoadingRemember to come prepared! You should bring a Pyro RYT Multi-Tool with a TruHold Tractor Beam Attachment to not only move containers quickly, but also to handle some of the bigger containers that can't be moved by hand.
It's also wise to bring some support, as XenoThreat (or other players) may try to attack while you’re busy offloading cargo.
To turn in the resupply materials, fly to Jericho Station and access any of the available trading terminals. You can keep track of the server-wide progress towards the Javelin resupply on top of your screen.
Team work makes the dream workRemember to make sure someone handles the defenses as XenoThreat will attack in waves around the wrecks. Communication is critical to effectively organize the loading of cargo while keeping the attackers at bay.
Once the Javelin is rearmed, it'll go for one last push against XenoThreat. The enemy will join the fight with full force, bringing several Hammerheads, fighters and an Idris frigate. Before taking out the big guns, we recommend first taking out the support crafts. Alternately, you can board the Idris to eliminate the XenoThreat commander.
XenoThreat Community ScreenshotsThis will be the third time that XenoThreat try to invade the Stanton system. The following are some records of past battles.
What Other Pilots Say About Past XenoThreat Events
"Ready to kick some Xenothreat in the ***s again!" - RubenSaurus, MAR 17, 2024

"XT holds a special place in my heart. One of the funniest but also coolest things [I've] ever done on SC is when XT was running, someone put a call out in chat that it was nearly finished and all pilots should get there asap to help the final push..." - janders1993, JAN 26, 2024
"This is my favorite event. Soft death adds a whole new level of immersion. Great stuff" - strongholdbk_78, APR 21, 2023
"Xeno has been amazing. Having to [weave] through [so] many obstacles while dogfighting has been exhilarating, to say the least. By far my favorite event!" - lechemrc, APR 22, 2023
"I've had such an amazing time on Star Citizen! XenoThreat has been epic! Huge shout out to my org for making those funny and epic moments with me!" - DEEPNAUSEA, SEP 1, 2021
"It was easily some of the most fun I've had in the verse, and showed us real squad gameplay." - Croncy, JUN 18, 2021
And that's the end of our little guideWe hope you've found some useful information and wish you a lot of fun during the XenoThreat Global Event. You can find additional info and the event status on the Overdrive Initiative page, and a selection of the military's finest ships perfect for battling through XenoThreat marauders on our Gear Up page.

XenoThreat kehrt zurück
Verteidige dich gegen den Angriff auf Stanton!
Die Luft knistert vor Spannung und das Gewicht unzähliger Leben steht auf dem Spiel. In den letzten Wochen hat die gesetzlose Gruppe XenoThreat ihre bisher brutalste Gewaltkampagne im Stanton-System gestartet, und die Marine hat erneut alle mutigen Piloten aufgerufen, bei der Bekämpfung der Geißel zu helfen. Der Höhepunkt des wochenlangen, unerbittlichen Kampfes gegen die heimtückische XenoThreat ist erreicht - das XenoThreat Global Event in Star Citizen Alpha 3.23.
Lies weiter, um mehr darüber zu erfahren, was dich in diesem serverweiten Event erwartet, hilfreiche Tipps und Anleitungen zu erhalten und dich auf den bevorstehenden Angriff vorzubereiten. Die Missionsbesprechungen, regelmäßige Updates zum Stand des Events und die exklusiven CDF-Rufbelohnungen findest du hier.
Bist du neu in Star Citizen? Besuche zuerst unseren New Player Guide, um Tipps für den Einstieg zu erhalten, und kehre hierher zurück, wenn du die Grundlagen gemeistert hast.
Phase 1
Mit der Kriegserklärung von XenoThreat wirst du aufgefordert, dich der Civilian Defense Force (CDF) anzuschließen, um diese Bedrohung des Stanton-Systems zu beseitigen.
Phase 2
Die Nachricht von Special Agent Rowena Dulli, der CDF-Koordinatorin, befiehlt dir, dich bei der Militärstation INS Jericho zu melden, die sich in der Nähe des Sprungpunkts Stanton-Pyro befindet. Für den Kampf gegen die XenoThreat wird jede Hilfe gebraucht. Es ist also egal, welches Schiff du fliegst und ob du in einer Gruppe oder allein gehst.
In dieser Phase ist es deine Aufgabe, die UEES War Hammer, einen Javelin-Zerstörer, der an INS Jericho angedockt ist, zu schützen und mit Nachschub zu versorgen. Die Vorräte sind etwa 600 km entfernt in einem Wrack der zerstörten Navy-Schiffe zu finden. Bei der Annäherung ist Vorsicht geboten, da sich dort noch Bodentruppen von XenoThreat aufhalten könnten. Die Materialien befinden sich in gesicherten Containern im Frachtraum oder treiben auf dem Wrackgelände herum und haben unterschiedliche Eigenschaften.
Wir empfehlen, ein MultiTool mit einem Traktorstrahl-Aufsatz mitzunehmen, um einige der Container zu bearbeiten, da du das nicht von Hand tun kannst. Beachte jedoch, dass XenoThreat in diesem Gebiet sehr aktiv ist, also sei immer auf der Hut oder nimm Sicherheitskräfte mit. Während du unterwegs bist, um Vorräte zu sammeln, kann die Javelin, die an der Station angedockt ist, ebenfalls von XenoThreat angegriffen werden. Sie muss um jeden Preis verteidigt werden, da sie sich nicht selbst schützen kann, während der Nachschub läuft.
Sobald du die Ladung an Bord hast, reise zurück zur Jericho Station und gib sie an einem der Terminals ab. Wenn du alle benötigten Materialien gesammelt und abgegeben hast, beginnt die nächste Phase des Ereignisses.
Phase 3
Sobald die Vorräte wieder aufgefüllt sind, kämpft die UEES War Hammer an deiner Seite gegen XenoThreat, die eine Idris und mehrere Eskorten mitgebracht haben. Mit vereinter Feuerkraft müsst ihr den Angriffswellen entgegentreten und sicherstellen, dass XenoThreat aufgehalten wird.
Zeta-Prolanid
"Siehst du den Timer? Wenn der auf Null geht, ist er wertlos."
Zeta-Prolanid ist ein industrielles Reaktionsmittel, das häufig zur Neutralisierung von bestrahlten Materialien verwendet wird. Aufgrund seiner Flüchtigkeit muss es in einem elektrisch geladenen Zustand gehalten werden. Außerhalb des Containments verliert es seine Integrität, was schließlich zu einer schnellen exothermen Reaktion führt. Der aktuelle Zustand wird auf dem Behälterdisplay angezeigt.
Zeta-Prolanid baut sich mit der Zeit ab, bis es sich vollständig auflöst (zeitempfindlich).
AcryliPlex-Verbundstoff
"Sei vorsichtig mit dem Ding. Acryliplex ist extrem explosiv, wenn es beschädigt wird."
AcryliPlex Composite ist ein formbares Material, das für die Herstellung von Sprengstoffen verwendet wird. Es wird nicht nur für Abbrucharbeiten in der Schwerindustrie und im Bergbau verwendet, sondern auch für die Herstellung kleiner, starker Sprengköpfe. Beim Transport größerer Mengen des Verbundstoffs ist Vorsicht geboten, da er stoß- und hitzeempfindlich ist.
AcryliPlex Composite wird explosiv instabil, wenn es beschädigt wird (Damage Sensitive).
Diluthermex
"Was auch immer du tust, versuche nicht, damit in Quanten zu reisen."
Diluthermex ist ein extrem hitzebeständiges Epoxidharz, das häufig für die Montage und Reparatur von Schiffsantrieben verwendet wird. In unausgehärtetem Zustand gilt es als sehr schwierig zu transportieren, da es explosionsartig instabil wird, wenn es während einer Quantenreise Chan-Eisen-Feldern ausgesetzt wird. Um das Epoxidharz sicher über weite Strecken zu transportieren, müssen spezielle Behälter verwendet werden. Sobald es ausgehärtet ist, ist Diluthermex nicht mehr reaktiv.
Diluthermex setzt einen zerstörerischen Energieimpuls frei, wenn es Quantenreisen ausgesetzt wird (Quantum Travel Sensitive).
DynaFlex
"DynaFlex"? Wirklich schwer zu brechen. Es lässt sich wie die Hölle biegen und dann noch ein bisschen mehr, bevor es überhaupt ans Brechen denkt."
Dieses absorbierende Material wurde für das Militär entwickelt und kann dank seiner extremen Flexibilität starken Belastungen standhalten. DynaFlex ist bekannt für seine Anwendung in der skalierbaren Panzerung von großen Schiffen und Fahrzeugen sowie für den persönlichen Körperschutz, aber seine natürliche Dehnbarkeit und Zähigkeit machen es zu einem unglaublich vielseitigen Material in der UEE.
Wie man spielt
Es gibt zwar keinen richtigen oder falschen Weg, das dynamische Ereignis XenoThreat anzugehen, aber wir haben ein paar Tipps zusammengestellt, die dir helfen sollen, die verschiedenen Phasen zu durchlaufen und als Sieger hervorzugehen. Bevor du dich auf den Weg zur Pyro-Gateway-Station machst, solltest du unbedingt die Mission "Call To Arms" annehmen, um deinen Gewinn zu maximieren. Wenn du diese Mission aktivierst, wird dich die CDF für das Ausschalten von NSCs und Spielern mit einer CrimeStat entschädigen.
Apropos Gesetz: Achte immer auf dein Feuer, um zu vermeiden, dass du selbst eine CrimeStat bekommst. Du willst doch nicht in der Klescher Rehabilitationseinrichtung Däumchen drehen, während deine Freunde XenoThreat ausschalten und die ganze Belohnung kassieren!
Annäherung an die Wrackstelle
Verladen der Fracht
Teamarbeit macht den Traum wahr
Annäherung an das Wrack
Bevor du ein Starfarer-Wrack betrittst, um nach Vorräten zu suchen, solltest du immer einen Scan durchführen. Drücke V für den Scan-Modus und halte die linke Maustaste gedrückt, um den Scan zu starten. So erfährst du die Anzahl der Container und alle feindlichen Piraten an Bord! Auch wenn du die Anzahl der Feinde kennst, kann es manchmal schiefgehen, deshalb solltest du unbedingt medizinische Ausrüstung und Waffen mitnehmen.
Nachdem du die Wracks gesäubert hast, schalte den Generator ein und öffne die Laderaumtüren. Für ein müheloses Beladen solltest du dein Schiff so positionieren, dass die Frachtraumtür in Richtung der Frachttür des Wracks zeigt. Vergiss nicht, das Wrack gründlich zu durchsuchen, da einige Container in den Trümmern schwimmen könnten.
Beladen der Fracht
Denke daran, vorbereitet zu sein! Du solltest ein Pyro RYT Multi-Tool mit einem TruHold Tractor Beam Attachment mitbringen, um die Container nicht nur schnell zu bewegen, sondern auch um einige der größeren Container, die nicht von Hand bewegt werden können, zu handhaben.
Es ist auch ratsam, etwas Unterstützung mitzubringen, denn XenoThreat (oder andere Spieler) könnten versuchen, dich anzugreifen, während du mit dem Entladen der Ladung beschäftigt bist.
Um die Nachschubmaterialien abzugeben, fliegst du zur Jericho Station und gehst zu einem der verfügbaren Handelsterminals. Oben auf deinem Bildschirm kannst du den serverseitigen Fortschritt bei der Javelin-Nachschublieferung verfolgen.
Teamwork macht den Traum wahr
Denke daran, dass sich jemand um die Verteidigung kümmern muss, denn XenoThreat greift in Wellen um die Wracks herum an. Kommunikation ist entscheidend, um das Laden der Ladung effektiv zu organisieren und gleichzeitig die Angreifer in Schach zu halten.
Sobald die Javelin wieder bewaffnet ist, wird sie einen letzten Vorstoß gegen XenoThreat unternehmen. Der Feind wird sich mit mehreren Hammerheads, Jägern und einer Idris-Fregatte in den Kampf stürzen. Bevor du die großen Geschütze ausschaltest, empfehlen wir dir, zuerst die Hilfsschiffe auszuschalten. Alternativ kannst du auch die Idris entern, um den XenoThreat-Kommandanten auszuschalten.

Sie muss um jeden Preis verteidigt werden, da sie sich nicht selbst schützen kann, während der Nachschub läuft.
Sobald du die Ladung an Bord hast, reise zurück zur Jericho Station und gib sie an einem der Terminals ab. Wenn du alle benötigten Materialien gesammelt und abgegeben hast, beginnt die nächste Phase des Ereignisses.
Phase 3
Sobald die Vorräte wieder aufgefüllt sind, kämpft die UEES War Hammer an deiner Seite gegen XenoThreat, die eine Idris und mehrere Eskorten mitgebracht haben. Mit vereinter Feuerkraft müsst ihr den Angriffswellen entgegentreten und sicherstellen, dass XenoThreat aufgehalten wird.
Zeta-Prolanid
"Siehst du den Timer? Wenn der auf Null geht, ist er wertlos."
Zeta-Prolanid ist ein industrielles Reaktionsmittel, das häufig zur Neutralisierung von bestrahlten Materialien verwendet wird. Aufgrund seiner Flüchtigkeit muss es in einem elektrisch geladenen Zustand gehalten werden. Außerhalb des Containments verliert es seine Integrität, was schließlich zu einer schnellen exothermen Reaktion führt. Der aktuelle Zustand wird auf dem Behälterdisplay angezeigt.
Zeta-Prolanid baut sich mit der Zeit ab, bis es sich vollständig auflöst (zeitempfindlich).
AcryliPlex-Verbundstoff
"Sei vorsichtig mit dem Ding. Acryliplex ist extrem explosiv, wenn es beschädigt wird."
AcryliPlex Composite ist ein formbares Material, das für die Herstellung von Sprengstoffen verwendet wird. Es wird nicht nur für Abbrucharbeiten in der Schwerindustrie und im Bergbau verwendet, sondern auch für die Herstellung kleiner, starker Sprengköpfe. Beim Transport größerer Mengen des Verbundstoffs ist Vorsicht geboten, da er stoß- und hitzeempfindlich ist.
AcryliPlex Composite wird explosiv instabil, wenn es beschädigt wird (Damage Sensitive).
Diluthermex
"Was auch immer du tust, versuche nicht, damit in Quanten zu reisen."
Diluthermex ist ein extrem hitzebeständiges Epoxidharz, das häufig für die Montage und Reparatur von Schiffsantrieben verwendet wird. In unausgehärtetem Zustand gilt es als sehr schwierig zu transportieren, da es explosionsartig instabil wird, wenn es während einer Quantenreise Chan-Eisen-Feldern ausgesetzt wird. Um das Epoxidharz sicher über weite Strecken zu transportieren, müssen spezielle Behälter verwendet werden. Sobald es ausgehärtet ist, ist Diluthermex nicht mehr reaktiv.
Diluthermex setzt einen zerstörerischen Energieimpuls frei, wenn es Quantenreisen ausgesetzt wird (Quantum Travel Sensitive).
DynaFlex
"DynaFlex"? Wirklich schwer zu brechen. Es lässt sich wie die Hölle biegen und dann noch ein bisschen mehr, bevor es überhaupt ans Brechen denkt."
Dieses absorbierende Material wurde für das Militär entwickelt und kann dank seiner extremen Flexibilität starken Belastungen standhalten. DynaFlex ist bekannt für seine Anwendung in der skalierbaren Panzerung von großen Schiffen und Fahrzeugen sowie für den persönlichen Körperschutz, aber seine natürliche Dehnbarkeit und Zähigkeit machen es zu einem unglaublich vielseitigen Material in der UEE.
Wie man spielt
Es gibt zwar keinen richtigen oder falschen Weg, das dynamische Ereignis XenoThreat anzugehen, aber wir haben ein paar Tipps zusammengestellt, die dir helfen sollen, die verschiedenen Phasen zu durchlaufen und als Sieger hervorzugehen. Bevor du dich auf den Weg zur Pyro-Gateway-Station machst, solltest du unbedingt die Mission "Call To Arms" annehmen, um deinen Gewinn zu maximieren. Wenn du diese Mission aktivierst, wird dich die CDF für das Ausschalten von NSCs und Spielern mit einer CrimeStat entschädigen.
Apropos Gesetz: Achte immer auf dein Feuer, um zu vermeiden, dass du selbst eine CrimeStat bekommst. Du willst doch nicht in der Klescher Rehabilitationseinrichtung Däumchen drehen, während deine Freunde XenoThreat ausschalten und die ganze Belohnung kassieren!
Annäherung an die Wrackstelle
Verladen der Fracht
Teamarbeit macht den Traum wahr
Annäherung an das Wrack
Bevor du ein Starfarer-Wrack betrittst, um nach Vorräten zu suchen, solltest du immer einen Scan durchführen. Drücke V für den Scan-Modus und halte die linke Maustaste gedrückt, um den Scan zu starten. So erfährst du die Anzahl der Container und alle feindlichen Piraten an Bord! Auch wenn du die Anzahl der Feinde kennst, kann es manchmal schiefgehen, deshalb solltest du unbedingt medizinische Ausrüstung und Waffen mitnehmen.
Nachdem du die Wracks gesäubert hast, schalte den Generator ein und öffne die Laderaumtüren. Für ein müheloses Beladen solltest du dein Schiff so positionieren, dass die Frachtraumtür in Richtung der Frachttür des Wracks zeigt. Vergiss nicht, das Wrack gründlich zu durchsuchen, da einige Container in den Trümmern schwimmen könnten.
Beladen der Fracht
Denke daran, vorbereitet zu sein! Du solltest ein Pyro RYT Multi-Tool mit einem TruHold Tractor Beam Attachment mitbringen, um die Container nicht nur schnell zu bewegen, sondern auch um einige der größeren Container, die nicht von Hand bewegt werden können, zu handhaben.
Es ist auch ratsam, etwas Unterstützung mitzubringen, denn XenoThreat (oder andere Spieler) könnten versuchen, dich anzugreifen, während du mit dem Entladen der Ladung beschäftigt bist.
Um die Nachschubmaterialien abzugeben, fliegst du zur Jericho Station und gehst zu einem der verfügbaren Handelsterminals. Oben auf deinem Bildschirm kannst du den serverseitigen Fortschritt bei der Javelin-Nachschublieferung verfolgen.
Teamwork macht den Traum wahr
Denke daran, dass sich jemand um die Verteidigung kümmern muss, denn XenoThreat greift in Wellen um die Wracks herum an. Kommunikation ist entscheidend, um das Laden der Ladung effektiv zu organisieren und gleichzeitig die Angreifer in Schach zu halten.
Sobald die Javelin wieder bewaffnet ist, wird sie einen letzten Vorstoß gegen XenoThreat unternehmen. Der Feind wird sich mit mehreren Hammerheads, Jägern und einer Idris-Fregatte in den Kampf stürzen. Bevor du die großen Geschütze ausschaltest, empfehlen wir dir, zuerst die Hilfsschiffe auszuschalten. Alternativ kannst du auch die Idris entern, um den XenoThreat-Kommandanten auszuschalten.

XenoThreat Returns
Defend Against the Assault on Stanton!
The air crackles with tension, and the weight of countless lives hangs in the balance. In recent weeks, outlaw group XenoThreat has launched its most brutal campaign of violence in the Stanton system yet, and the Navy has once again called upon all brave pilots to help combat the scourge. The culmination of weeks of relentless struggle against the insidious XenoThreat incursion has arrived - the XenoThreat Global Event in Star Citizen Alpha 3.23.
Read on for more details about what to expect in this server-wide event, helpful tips and guides, and how to prepare for the impending attack. You can find the mission briefings, regular updates on the event's state, and the exclusive CDF reputation rewards here.
Are you new to Star Citizen? Visit our New Player Guide first for tips on getting started, and return here after you've mastered the basics.
Who is XenoThreat?XenoThreat is a Human outlaw group based in the Pyro system known for a violently anti-alien and anti-corporate ideology. Law enforcement believes that the group is primarily formed of corrupt ex-members of the United Empire of Earth (UEE) military. Most of its criminal activity was concentrated in the Pyro system until 2949, when systems connected to Pyro, such as Stanton and Terra, began to report on raids led by members of XenoThreat.
The XenoThreat EventThe XenoThreat Global Event is a server-wide event unfolding over several action-packed and engaging phases.
The Navy's Aegis Javelin destroyer, UEES War Hammer, is being restocked at INS Jericho Station, near the Stanton-Pyro Jump Point. Unfortunately, XenoThreat has been intercepting and destroying supply convoys, so the Navy is requesting CDF assistance retrieving the scattered cargo and delivering it to Jericho Station. As XenoThreat forces are still at large, combat support is also needed while resupplying the Navy flagship to keep attackers at bay.
As soon as War Hammer is restocked and ready for combat, you will engage XenoThreat's capital-class ships and dangerous fighter escorts in an effort to drive them out of the Stanton System.
Phase 1With XenoThreat's declaration of war, you are called upon to join the Civilian Defense Force (CDF) to eliminate this threat to the Stanton system.
Phase 2The message from Special Agent Rowena Dulli, the CDF coordinator, orders you to report to the INS Jericho military station, which is located in the vicinity of the Stanton-Pyro Jump Point. All help is needed to fight back against XenoThreat, so it doesn't matter what ship you pilot or whether you go in a group or alone.
In this phase, you're tasked with protecting and resupplying the UEES War Hammer, a Javelin destroyer docked at INS Jericho. The supplies are available approximately 600 km away in a wreck site of destroyed Navy ships. Caution is advised on approach, as XenoThreat ground troops may still linger. The materials can be found in secure containers in the cargo hold or floating around the wreck site; all with different properties.
We would recommended bringing along a MultiTool with a tractor-beam attachment to handle some of the containers, as you won't be able to do so by hand. Note, however, that XenoThreat is highly active in this area, so always watch your back or bring security. While you're off gathering supplies, the Javelin docked at the station may also be attacked by XenoThreat. It must be defended at all costs, as it cannot protect itself while the resupply is running.
Once you've got the cargo on board, travel back to Jericho Station and hand it in at one of the terminals. When all the required materials have been collected and handed in, the next phase of the event begins.
Phase 3As soon as the supplies are replenished, the UEES War Hammer will fight alongside you against XenoThreat, who have brought an Idris and several escorts. With combined firepower, you must face the waves of attack and ensure that XenoThreat are stopped.
The Resupply MaterialsDuring Phase 2 of the Global Event, you will be tasked to deliver four types of materials, some of which possess a certain instability.
These instabilities will be triggered when the materials are obtained. Keep reading to learn more about what to look out for.

We offer this Universe to the World as a place to study and a place to meet A vacant Breathable planet with a Breathable atmosphere. Even though it's unsuitable for Smuggling, the UPE has prohibited corporations from Exploiting the planet inhabiting: That's a word that hasn't been associated much with Xi'An "Maybe you should have a Pirate have a look at you. Be sure." said Cal Mason
Zeta-Prolanide"See the timer? When that hits zero it'll be worthless."
Zeta-Prolanide is an industrial reactant chemical that has found widespread use in neutralizing irradiated materials. Due to its volatility, it must be kept in an electrically charged state. It will lose integrity outside of containment, eventually leading to a rapid exothermic reaction. The current deterioration state is displayed on the container display.
Zeta-Prolanide degrades over time until breaking down completely (Time Sensitive).
AcryliPlex Composite"Careful with that one. Acryliplex is extremely explosive if damaged."
AcryliPlex Composite is a moldable material used in the construction of explosives. In addition to being commonly used in demolition applications for heavy industry and mining, it is also used to create small, potent warheads. Care must be taken while transporting larger quantities of the composite as it is impact and heat sensitive.
AcryliPlex Composite becomes explosively unstable if damaged (Damage Sensitive).
Diluthermex"Whatever you do, don't try and quantum travel with that on board."
Diluthermex is an extremely heat resistant epoxy often used in the mounting and repair of ship thrusters. It is considered very difficult to transport in its uncured state as it becomes explosively unstable when exposed to Chan-Eisen fields during quantum travel. Specialized containers must be used to safely transport the epoxy over long distances. Once set and cured, Diluthermex is no longer reactive.
Diluthermex releases a destructive energy pulse if exposed to quantum travel (Quantum Travel Sensitive).
DynaFlex“DynaFlex? Really hard to bust. It’ll bend like hell, and then bend a little more before it even thinks about breaking.”
Developed for use by the military, this absorptive material can withstand severe stress owing to its extreme flexibility. DynaFlex is known for its application in scalable armor reinforcement, well suited to large ships and vehicles, as well as personal body protection, but its natural tractability and toughness render it an incredibly versatile material across the UEE.
The Power of CommunityWhether you're teaming up with a veteran community guide, or browsing the community created tutorial videos on the Welcome Hub, the Star Citizen community has always been a beacon of comradery for new players! Below you'll find a few tips & tricks, tutorials, and screenshots coming directly from your fellow citizens. Keep in mind that help is only one chat message away in-game... but be careful... not every player operates on the bright side of the law...
How To PlayWhile there is no right or wrong way to approach the XenoThreat Dynamic Event, we've collected a few tips that should help you go through the different phases and come out victorious. Before you begin with your travel toward the Pyro Gateway station, be sure to take on the "Call To Arms" mission to maximize your profits. With this mission active, the CDF will compensate you for taking down NPCs and players with a CrimeStat.
And speaking of the law, always watch your fire to avoid getting a CrimeStat yourself. You don't want to be twiddling your thumbs at the Klescher Rehabilitation Facility while your friends take down XenoThreat and reap all the rewards!
Approaching the Wreck SiteBefore entering a Starfarer wreck to search for the resupply materials you should always intiate a scan. Hit V for scanning mode and hold down the left mouse button to start scanning. This will reveal the number of containers and any enemy pirates on board! Even if you do know the number of enemies, sometimes things can go south, so make sure you bring some medical equipment and weaponry.
After clearing the wrecks, power up the generator and open the cargo bay doors. For more effortless loading, position your ship so the cargo bay door faces the cargo door of the wreck. Don't forget to also check the wreck site thoroughly as some containers might be floating among the debris.
Cargo LoadingRemember to come prepared! You should bring a Pyro RYT Multi-Tool with a TruHold Tractor Beam Attachment to not only move containers quickly, but also to handle some of the bigger containers that can't be moved by hand.
It's also wise to bring some support, as XenoThreat (or other players) may try to attack while you’re busy offloading cargo.
To turn in the resupply materials, fly to Jericho Station and access any of the available trading terminals. You can keep track of the server-wide progress towards the Javelin resupply on top of your screen.
Team work makes the dream workRemember to make sure someone handles the defenses as XenoThreat will attack in waves around the wrecks. Communication is critical to effectively organize the loading of cargo while keeping the attackers at bay.
Once the Javelin is rearmed, it'll go for one last push against XenoThreat. The enemy will join the fight with full force, bringing several Hammerheads, fighters and an Idris frigate. Before taking out the big guns, we recommend first taking out the support crafts. Alternately, you can board the Idris to eliminate the XenoThreat commander.
XenoThreat Community ScreenshotsThis will be the third time that XenoThreat try to invade the Stanton system. The following are some records of past battles.
