Container can't be Hacked with defenders present, so you need to kill this group. Can MUST be hacked AND looted in order to complete mission. Buying 1x FedNav F.O.F. Identifier Tag AC-106V:FNSBR from the market or contracts won't complete the mission.

Mission 12 - The Breakout

Mission Site = Two Pockets

First Pocket 1x Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate (95km)

No NPC's most of the time

Sometimes it ends up with: Group 1: 6x Frigate (Federation Praktor Phalarica/Machina/Harpgo) 2x Destroyer (Federation Belos) 3x Elite Frigate (Elite Federation Lochos/Libertus) Warp Scram

Group 2: 6x Elite Frigates (Elite Federation Phalarica/Machina) 3x Elite Cruiser (Elite Fedeartion Arx) Sensor Damping

Group 3: 7x Battleships (Federation Praktor Magister/Navis Praetoria/Polemo/Hexeris) Navis = Sensor Damping

In the case of these spawns, a cloaky is best used to just fly past them to the gate. The 1x FedNav F.O.F. Identifier Tag AC-106V:FNSBR may not prevent them from attacking.


Second Pocket

Initial Group (25km) 8x Gallente Warden Frigate (Federation Clavis, Hastile)

Structures (Hack with Data Analyzer) : 8x Federation Dention Facility - each contains 1x Caldari Prisoner Of War (Mission Objective)

Note - The Gallente Warden Frigates may not attack if the 1x FedNav F.O.F. Identifier Tag AC-106V:FNSBR (Gained from Agent) is in your cargohold (There is a bug where they may still shoot you but they hit for 1 damage). After successfully hacking a Detention Facility to save a prisoner, a short self-destruct timer will start. You may be able to hack another one before the Detention Facility self-destructs but only 1x Caldari Prisoners Of War is needed to complete the mission.

The Detention Facility structures will have a white container to Hack. If no Detention Facility structures are present or you see 8x blue containers, then that site has been completed by another player. Instead of waiting for respawn, just look for the site in another system.

Mission 13 - Whisper of a Conspiracy

Sinas sends you to a low sec system in Black Rise where he wants you to check out an Ishkone facility and see if they are exchanging prisoners of war with the Gallente.

Route can be either entirely high sec or go into low-sec so be careful. Warp to the mish site. Sinas says to check out the telescope. Once you reach about 10km from it, Sinas hacks it for you and you can open it to get the mish item, an Encrypted Data Node.

Tip: Same drill as before. Nano Interceptor/fast frigate/cloaky frigate and beware of gate camps.

Mission 14 - Practical Solutions

Mission Type: Courier

Pick up Vira Mikano from an Ishkone Watch station and bring him back to Sinas so he can decrypt the Encrypted Data Node.

Mission 15 - Forewarning

Mission Type: Courier to Deadspace Location (Low Sec) Recommended Ship: Very fast frigate, interceptor or covert ops
