They seem to be stopping dead in mostly wormhole sectors.

I'm not entirely sure why but I have been noticing it in the Dau and Azek wormhole and I think in the Arta C. and Dau wormhole.

All over Itani space as well.

They're afraid of me.

Do you mean that those large build-ups of Heavy moths aren't supposed to be there?

they make great target practice for hx

Beware of the ghost moths that haunt the Wormholes, the enraged spirits of dead traders are building an army!!

Actually, it'd be hilarious if they all just woke up when a pirate was in sector and gat-spammed them from all angles...

The worst case scenario I've run into was expecting them to be just plain old sitting duck Heavy Moths, you know, the ones who can't shoot at you from the front? And finding out the bugger actually had Large Port Guass on board... which as it happens, fired out the front of the ship.

That was a very short lesson in "expect the unexpected".

You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred.
