INTRO TEXT

== Acquisition ==
The nociosphere will randomly appear on the map, playing a soundbyte, spawning in a docile state. Here it can be easily captured.

== Summary == 
The nociosphere is a black sphere with red highlights. It can be suppressed, and should it reach 100% instability, it will become hostile & attack. Study will reveal it can be used as a weapon on your local map. Extended study will reveal that it is unstable and suppression will soon become impossible (10 days).

== Analysis ==
It is ''incredibly'' strong, and should be treated with '''extreme''' care when being deployed as an offensive or defensive weapon. When deployed it goes into an "onslaught mode" which lasts 90 seconds during which it will attack everyting and teleport to get closer to its targets. This means also, if deployed carelessly, that it can easily wipe out an even midgame colony due to its extremly powerfull attacks. The nociosphere IS affected by EMP weapons and can be brought down with ease.

Once it reached the point where it can no longer be stabilised it is imperative to get rid of it as fast as possible. If possible it should be released against a threat that can keep it bussy for most of its 90 seconds of onslaught mode. If it destabilises it will enter its onslaught mode and go after everything living (not entities) until the onslaught mode is over. Once it has been released for one last time it will disappear. In the event there are no enemies, you can set it down near animals for it to target, faster animals can sometimes kite the Nociosphere until its onslaught mode deactivates.

There are NO DOWNSIDES to farming from a Nociosphere as it will not destabilise faster, even when farmed. It yields 7.2 bioferrite per day when harvested. This makes it great for farming, as long as the player is aware of the risks. However, it does NOT generate electricity, and since the electroharvester will halve study yields, it is best to keep this out of the range of any electroharvesters.
