[[File:AvorionBarrierGateInactive.png|thumb|The 8 asteroids acting as the gate through The Barrier, currently inactive.]] [[File:AvorionBarrierGateActive.png|thumb|Once the 8 ships with the 8 XSTN-K are in place, the gate through The Barrier will open.]] '''The Barrier''', as the name suggests, is a barrier blocking the player from entering a radius of 150 sectors of the [[Galaxy|galaxy's]] middle. The Barrier functions and looks like space-time rift - although it's circular in shape and not shaped like a rift - and therefore it cannot be seen as a physical object, and it is only marked on the map. == Getting past The Barrier == To get past The Barrier, the player has to find a sector with a [[Sector|hidden mass signature]] very close to the barrier, or the player can ask The Hermit again for hints. The sector will contain nothing but 8 asteroids. These asteroids will, when active, serve as a gate to get past The Barrier. To activate them, the player must collect all 8 [[XSTN-K]] artifacts. Each asteroid is labeled from 1-8 in roman numerals (I, II, III, etc.), and each XSTN-K artifact is labeled in the same manner. When the player has acquired all artifacts, they need to be placed in 8 different ships, and those 8 ships need to be placed within 1.5 km of their respective asteroid - the ship containing XSTN-I needs to be placed close to the asteroid labeled I, XSTN-II close to asteroid II, etc.. If the [[XSTN-K]] has been placed successfully, a small red light will be lit at the edge of the asteroid. When all 8 [[XSTN-K]] artifacts are in place, all 8 asteroids will collectively shoot a red beam into the center of the circle, that the 8 asteroids create, and a wormwhole will open. This will however trigger a fleet of Xsotan ships to enter the sector, but they won't attack unless a turret is fired as with other Xsotan fleets. == Post-Barrier == Once the player gets past The Barrier, they will encounter a large number of [[Xsotan]] ships. The Xsotan will not only appear [[Events|at random]] through subspace, but they can also be found in [[Sector|sectors]] with hidden mass signatures. Within these sectors, a large number of [[Xsotan]] ships will reside, being neutral towards the player, until a turret is fired which will make them hostile. When near the very center of the [[galaxy]], the player will almost solely meet Xsotans, although it is possible to meet other faction outposts. Bear in mind, that [[Avorion]] can be found very quickly when across The Barrier, but requires both [[Ogonite]] and [[Avorion]] building knowledge to build. Once you can build with [[Avorion]], you can use an [[Avorion]] hyperspace core of any size to jump through rifts, therefore rendering the gate useless to any ship with an [[Avorion]] hyperspace core.
