Greetings Agents,

I know it has been some time, but I have good news. I have released new content and a new content section as can be seen in the navbar above, Ingress Strategy Guides. The first strategy guide released, is a Ingress Strategy Guide for Rural Players. This strategy guide is geared at providing tips for players in smaller towns where the portals are few and far between. Also, I have updated a few of the pages around the site with the most recent information of game play. As usual, if you find any inaccurate or missing information, please let me know so i can get it updated.

Greetings Agents,

This morning I read an article about an off duty US navy sailor who recently defended herself from an attacker which made me think a bit about safety. Your missions are important as your faction depends on you, but even more important is that you make it home safely every day. That is why I drafted up a new component for the Ingress Bootcamp: Getting started guide, Ingress Safety Guide.

This evening I released new content that should help you with your mission. The new content is Recommended Gear for Ingress which is comprised of recommended gear by seasoned field agents. The gear within this guide will give you the edge you need to stay ahead of your competition.

The info graphic below was shared with me which provides fantastic information regarding where you should position yourself when detonating an XMP to gain the maximum effect. You can read more about XMP's within our getting started guide, XMP Bursters and Attacking Enemy Portals.

Use this intel to help you succeed with your missions.

It was reported within the latest Ingress Report, how will this effect the future of Ingress and our understanding of XM.

Also in the report is information about changes to the usage of XMP Blasters, stating that they will begin to consume XM during detonation. How much will be varied by the level of the XMP Blaster. We will be sure to update the guide as we know more.

Be sure to review the full report below.

New information has been leaked from the Niantic Project that leads us to believe that an update to the Ingress Scanner will be released. A document titled Recharging and Upgrading has been leaked that provides details that agents will now receive AP for recharging and upgrading resonators. This is excellent news and will completely evolve our activity as agents. Here is an excerpt:

Lynton-Wolfe:  Yes.
I'm quite pleased about it. I will be rolling it out in a few hours.
The fact that the operatives, the so called players, will receive AP for utilizing the remote resonator recharge and resonator upgrade technologies should (in theory) encourage maintenance of portals, which is wonderful for our XM harvesting need.
I'll be making this a required update for all active scanners later this week.

Godspeed,

Interesting developments with the Niantic Project Investigation. Ben Jackland is alive! He posted a comment on a post from PAC. It seems the NIA cannot control people as well as they think. In light of this news, I have updated Ben Jackland record within the POI Database as being active.

Greetings Agents,

It is my pleasure to announce a major new feature for the site. This feature should make it easier for agents to be up to date with the latest progress of the Niantic Project Investigation. Today, we are making available to the public our Niantic Project Investigation Log. This new tool collects data from specific sources that contain documents and media related to the investigation. It is running continuously and has the ability to send a notification email when new entries have been recorded.

Sources currently include the Niantic Project Site and a few Google Plus profiles related to the investigation like Hubert Farlowe. We intend to add more sources to the data collector over the next few days.

Greetings Agents,

Today we are announcing a new tool available to you from IngressFieldGuide, the Recharge Efficiency Calculator. This calculator will provide you insight into the recharge efficiency you will have when recharging portals remotely. It was designed using jQuery mobile like our Portal Level Calculator, so it is mobile friendly. If you need help with the calculator, be sure to click the help button in the upper right hand corner.

We could not have developed this new tool without the excellent research and analysis conducted by Jay V van Zyl as he was kind enough to share his findings with us.

Godspeed,
