Legion Update: Not-So-Little Things

[p]Illustrious capsuleers, [/p][p]The next phase of the Legion expansion has arrived, rooted in your choices and your feedback. This update to Legion delivers a swath of improvements, largely based on capsuleer input, designed to power your purpose. Whether you’re engaging in Factional Warfare, raiding skyhooks, or simply navigating the Neocom with newfound ease, every enhancement serves to deepen your control over your unique journey in New Eden.[/p][p][/p][h2]Your Feedback, Made Real[/h2][p]One of the goals with iterative expansion releases is to be responsive to the pulse of the cluster, which is reflected in the latest series of quality-of-life improvements, many directly informed by capsuleer insights shared at the Little Things panel during Fanfest 2025 and in the official forums. [/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p]These suggestions, collected from passionate discussions and direct feedback, have now become real enhancements. Among these are the ability to delete multiple contracts simultaneously upon expiry, easily importing price information from the clipboard to the sell window, and more clarity in the UI about the performance of Triglavian weapons. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Capsuleers are encouraged to continue contributing via the Little Things  forum thread. Your input helps shape the future of New Eden. We have begun the process of reclaiming our sofa by implementing the index card tips, and it’s up to you to fill it up again! Details on these changes can be found in the patch notes.  [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Multiple adjustments and additions have also been made based on input from the CSM and wider EVE community. Skyhooks that will enter a vulnerable state within the next two hours will now be highlighted on the new, optimized map, offering enhanced clarity for raiding and making it easier to plan and strike with precision. The raiding window has been extended, giving room for tactical aggression and coordinated assaults. [/p][p][/p][p]PvP enthusiasts will discover more conflict opportunities around Metenox sites, with changes that close loopholes previously used to avoid engagements. Owners can no longer unanchor their structures to escape a fight, making each deployment a true commitment. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Nullsec aggression gets more strategic as capsuleers gain the ability to hack sovereignty hubs with Data and Relic Analyzer modules to gather intel. This enables skilled scouts to access important information about the sovereignty hub, including which upgrades are installed and which are online, allowing for more informed decisions when identifying opportune targets. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]When it comes to Pirate Insurgencies, capsuleers who wish to align with the Guristas or Angel Cartel can now sign on from Zarzakh, which lowers the barrier of entry, especially for newcomers looking to embrace a darker path. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]Miners will rejoice as pyerite yields have been increased from scordite, answering a long-standing call to bolster resource availability. This aims to empower highsec miners to act on the pyerite shortage. Meanwhile, Pochven has seen various improvements, including a reworking of smaller-scale sites to adjust balance and add more rewards, with opportunities tailored for agile cruiser teams to make their mark. [/p][p][/p][p]And in the spirit of fairness in warfare, wardec loopholes have been sealed, leveling the playing field between aggressive corporations and those rising up against them. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The Compare tool is being revamped with a new layout that allows you to find items within the window, rather than needing to be found elsewhere, making it easier than ever to find the right tools for your space adventures. Comparing will require less effort, and the differences between the attributes being compared will be clearer than before. In addition, the new layout offers options for search, grouping, filtering, and more. [/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][h2]You’ve Been Busy![/h2][p]Capsuleer ambition is constantly reshaping New Eden. Here are some of the key moments of the Legion era so far, captured in data: [/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Warp Forward[/h2][p]With each step forward, EVE Online evolves, adapts, and improves, fueled by the will of capsuleers. These new updates are extensions of your agency, crafted in collaboration with those who thrive on New Eden’s chaos. [/p][p][/p][p]Explore the changes, strategize your next move, and claim your place in the evolving saga. [/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]

Eve Online Legion expansion transforms the space MMO with a new missions system

Eve Online is something of an institution at this point. The famed space MMO first came out all the way back in 2003, but continued support from its creator and players means it still offers a vision of futuristic exploration compelling enough to rival newer projects like Star Citizen or No Man's Sky. Now, in another example of developer CCP Games' commitment to its long-running game, a new expansion called Legion has arrived, bringing with it a host of additions, tweaks, and a new missions system.
