==Locating & Difficulty==
'''Angel Vigil''' is a unrated [[combat sites|combat site]] that can be found via [[exploration]] by scanning down signatures with scanner probes in high- and low-security systems. It's gate allows Battlecruisers or smaller to enter, and a (well equipped) Battlecruiser or HAC is suggested to bring into the site. (Addition: after completing in a Hurricane Dooobles notes that resists over 60% exp/kinetic, robust T2 tank with substantial buffer, exp/kinetic dmg dealing, web, and tracking gear are ESSENTIAL; the incoming damage is very high and the mobs kite.)  
This is a type of hidden combat site that can be scanned down with scanner probes, and can be found in high-security systems. It's gate allows Battlecruisers or smaller to enter, and a (well equipped) Battlecruiser or HAC is my suggestion for what you should bring. (Addition: after completing in a Hurricane Dooobles notes that resists over 60% exp/kinetic, robust T2 tank with substantial buffer, exp/kinetic dmg dealing, web, and tracking gear are ESSENTIAL; the incoming damage is very high and the mobs kite.)  


On warp in, you arrive at an acceleration gate.  ''Previous Explorers have commented that one of the gates requires a passkey.  Alternatively, it can be bypassed by convincing the commander to unlock it.  The overseer guards his shipyard vigorously.''

==== First Room ====


No web or scram reported on two separate runs.  
The gate in the first room can be unlocked either by using an Angel Gold Tag or by killing the Gistatis Smuggler Commander in the Gate Spawn. It is possible to trigger the Gate Spawn preemptively by shooting the smuggler gate.

== Strategy ==
 
===Strategy===
Before shooting any tower, focus on lowering the number of enemies in the pocket. The incoming damage is quite substantial so something with a decent tank, or warp-outs are necessary. You will be webbed down to ~10% velocity or less (14.0 m/s in a BC), so speed tanking isn't possible. After the area is cleared of most of the enemies, shoot one of the stasis towers. This pocket can easily become tank-melting if you target the turrets before clearing the initial ships. After all the turrets are gone and everything's dead, shoot 'Pat's Shipyard' for the final spawn and kill him off. There are multiple cargo containers in the pocket (containing a small amount of ammo, one had faction ammo).  A large number of Veldspar asteroids are in this pocket.

|Scanning through Pat Wead´s logs reveals that this druglord was surprisingly well connected, long lists of buyers and sellers throughout the neighboring regions would make this document a dream read of any law enforcement agent in the galaxy, if only all the vital parts were not in some completely alien code. No matter how much you let your central computer chew on this stuff, you get no feedback on any names or places, except perhaps one... this seems to be a hasty entry from almost a year back, not in code. At least the coordinates do reflect a true point in space.}}
