The EVE Online site has been updated with a lengthy new blog to lay out some of the details about the change over and details regarding Faction Citadels coming on June 5th. All Outposts and Conquerable Stations will be converted to Upwell STructures at that time. The blog is designed to provide information to players about how to best prepare for the June 5th swap.
TL;DR:
- Every single Outpost and Conquerable Station will be converted into an upgraded Faction Fortizar during downtime on June 5th 2018
- Be prepared for a longer than usual downtime for this change
- These Faction Fortizars are powerful and limited edition – no more will be added
- New Faction Citadels will belong to the last owner of the Outpost/Conquerable Station at the time of the change
- Once Outposts and Conquerables are converted into Faction Citadels they will enter a temporary invulnerable mode
- On June 7th structures will enter their standard shield vulnerable state
Each of the points mentioned above is laid out in great detail, so head over to the EVE Online site to read up on the nitty gritty.
