Okkar/Everspace

Okkar in Everspace are a hostile faction encountered in almost every zone of each sector.

Appearances
The Okkar have no permanent structures in the DMZ unlike the Outlaws and G&B, but compensate with Corvettes and Frigates. Groups of ships are frequently found in each zone, with the occasional capital ships (frigates being fairly rare). There can also be random ambushes throughout sector zones. Tareen is an Okkar, but is not considered part of the faction.

Okkar Waves
If the player spends too much time in a sector (15 minutes on Easy difficulty, 8 on Normal, and 4-5 on Hard), three waves of Okkar ships will jump in and attempt to destroy the player, culminating in a fourth wave of Colonial Warships jumping in - unless Admiral Gorc has been defeated already. The waves of Okkar are usually very difficult to defeat without additional help, especially early-game. Ships destroyed that spawn in during these waves tend to drop little loot, but it can be useful to farm them for fuel.

Okkar Ships
There are several types of Okkar ships. They can be identified from a distance by their blue trails. Okkar ships have the strongest shields in the game compared to other factions.
