General Info

The Angel Cartel Occupied Mining Colony is a Cosmic Signature of the DED Complex (rated 4/10) type, occupied by the Angel Cartel pirate faction. It can be found via exploration by probing in Highsec and Lowsec systems.

The site consists of a volume of space with an acceleration gate and contains various structures and their defending pirates. Using the gate allows access to other areas within the site. When attacked, the defenders may send multiple waves of reinforcements. Each group's appearance is triggered by the destruction of members of the previous group. The names and amount of ships listed may vary slightly, but will always be of Battlecruiser class or smaller.

This site's acceleration gate allows only Battlecruiser class ships or lower and their Tech 2 equivalents to enter the site.

(Note - Tech 3 cruisers are not supported by the entrance gate)

Walkthrough

Upon warping to the beacon

Despite numerous laws across the empires bolstering security regulations after the outbreak of Sansha incursions in YC 113, mining colonies still provide a weak, target-rich environment for pirate factions. The Angel Cartel takes an unorthodox approach to these colonies, imprisoning the miners and replacing them with their own excavation teams, led by a Domination Excavator. The CDIA has yet to determine what the Cartel is after, though no significant amount of traditionally valuable ore has been taken. DED Threat Assessment: Risky (4 of 10)

Room 2

Upon entering room 2.
Excavator Detected: I'm reading the presence of a Domination Excavator. Prepare yourself for a fight. Scientists or not, the Cartel only fields warships.

The Domination Excavator has a strong shield tank and deals very high damage for a battlecruiser. A well-tanked battlecruiser (a Gnosis works) or T2 battlecruiser is advised. DPS is very high in this room. The Domination Excavator is marked with a battlecruiser icon but is an Overseer Cruiser. Roughly 280 DPS is advised to be able to take him down.

The NPCs are in two separate groups but aggro together shortly after warp-in.

Excavator Down
The Excavator has been eliminated. Whatever the Cartel was looking for, they won't get it now. Don't forget to rob the wreckage of delicious prizes.
