Blackess Rising is the second chapter of Penumbra. This chapter contains no brances and the choises done in previous missions have no effect. For detailed walkthrough see [[Penumbra/Chapter 2 - Blackness Rising]].

==Chapter 3: The Bottom Line==

The Bottom Line is the third and last chapter of Penumbra. This chapter is completely different depending on the choice you did in mission "Paths that are Hidden" in first chapter. For detailed walkthrough see [[Penumbra/Chapter 3 - The Bottom Line]].

==~~Mission 14: The Knowledge To Act (Hyasyoda)~~==

==Rewards==

~~The last choice, select:~~

* Home In Peace: leads to 25m ISK and Caldari State Faction standing increase as final reward

* Slipping Away: leads to Hyasyoda Mobile Laboratory and Caldari State Faction standing increase as final reward

~~==Mission 14: A Difference of Opinion (Nugoeihuvi)==~~

The final reward depends on choices you nake in mission "Paths That Are Hidden" in first chapter and in the first mission of last chapter.

The ~~last choice, select:~~

* Home In Peace: leads to 25m ISK and Caldari State Faction standing increase as final reward

* Learning by Doing: leads to 20 Nugoehuvi Synth Blue Pill Boosters and ~~Caldari State Faction standing increase as final reward~~

~~==Mission 15A: Home In Peace~~ (Caldari State)==

Selecting "An Honorable Betrayal" in "Paths that are Hidden" and then selecting "Slipping Away" in "The Knowledge to Act" leads to Hyasyoda rewarding you with Standup Hyasyoda Research Lab Blueprint (1 run, 8% ME, 8% TE) and around Caldari State faction standing increase (12.5 at Social V). The Standup Hyasyoda Research Lab is faction module for Upwell structures. Like the normal research lab the Hyasyoda variant allows blueprint research but uses less fuel and powergrid. The module can be used in low security space only.

~~Lowsec courier: transport 5000m^3 of Caldari POWs to Malkanen~~.

~~==Mission 15B: Slipping away (Hyasyoda)==~~

Selecting any other option in "Paths that are Hidden" and "Learning by Doing" in "A Difference of Opinion" will reward you with 20x Nugoehuvi Synth Blue Pill Boosters and Caldari State faction standing increase. Nugoehuvi Synth Blue Pill Boosters increases shield boosting by 5% with no drawbacks for 33 minutes.

~~Report back to Arikio Kuretsu~~ in ~~Wuos (Best to arrive in a BS ready for the final mission).~~

~~Agent: Sinas Egassuo~~

~~Location: Caldari Navy Relay Nexus (Beacon) Astoh (System)~~

~~Reward: 250,000 + 1,130,000 (Bonus if completed in 4H 30M)~~

~~Enemy: Nil~~

~~==Mission 15C:~~ Learning by Doing ~~(Nugoeihuvi)==~~

~~Report to Katsen Isha at Poinen IV - Moon 13 - Nugoeihuvi Corporation Development Studio.~~

~~==Mission 16A: Across the Line (Hyasyoda)==~~

* Single pocket without acceleration gate. The objective is in ~~the office facility, guarded by a single NPC battleship.~~

* The following NPCs will ~~spawn when the facility is closer tan ~125km: 9 Frigates, 4 Cruisers, and 6 Battleships.~~

* Cruisers have very strong jams and range > 170km - expect to be nearly perma jammed.

* Frigates warp scramble (2 warp strength).

* With one meta 4 ECCM (96%) it is possible to avoid most - but not all - of the jams.

* Because of the jams F.O.F. missiles might be effective. With good missile skills you ~~can use FOF Cruise missiles from 200k+ which is well out of range from the NPCs.~~

* Alternatively, equip a sensor booster to be able to target the jammers from outside their range.

* You can also bring a friend in a fast frigate to draw their scrams and jams while you take those out. If the frigate maintains at least 600 m/s then it should be able to self-repair the reduced missile damage, but there is some more-sophisticated AI in this mission so the NPCs may switch targets anyway.

* Very heavy damage is dealt by the BSs, which fire very long range torps - I had to warp out several times in my Raven.

* If you warp to the facility at close range and get full room close-range aggro, expect in excess of 4000 pre-resistance DPS, primarily kinetic.

* You can warp within the mission to structures. (In fact, since there is no aggression until you start to close the distance to the office facility, you can come in first with ~~a MWD frigate~~ and set up some bookmarks to use during combat. Then you will be able to warp around for awesome kiting, and each time you warp you will break all target locks and cause all the inbound torps to miss you. This method is great for a dedicated sentry drone ship (e.g. Dominix) since each warp breaks their jams so you can relaunch your sentries and assign them to another target before you are jammed again - your drones will continue to attack that target until it is destroyed, at which point you can scoop them, warp to another bookmark, and repeat.)

* Once all NPCs have been killed warp/approach the office facility, get the family and return to the agent!

~~Agent: Arikio Kuretsu~~

~~Location: Wuos~~

~~Reward: One unit of Hyasyoda Research Laboratory + 1,740,000 (Bonus if completed in 6H)~~

~~Enemy: Nugoeihuvi (deal roughly 50% Kinetic, 50% Thermal damage)~~

~~==Mission 16B: The Price of Silence (Nugoeihuvi)==~~

~~Objective: Recover the original hard copies of the mission documents from somewhere inside the Ishukone Watch Facility.~~

~~On warp-in, there will be:~~

* 7 Battleships (Commander & Raven)

* 8 Cruisers (Moa & Rook)

* 8 Frigates (Hawk & Buzzard)

* 8 Cruise Missile Batteries

* 2 Stasis Web Towers

~~<br />~~

~~Things to take note of:~~

* Some cruisers and frigates will sensor dampen

* Some frigates will warp scram. Would recommend burning the frigates and cruisers fast.

* After all enemy ships are wrecks, approach the Ishukone Watch facility and a container will spawn. Loot 1x Ishukone Operational Reports.

* Return to your agent and enjoy your boosters, but not TOO much!

<br> I did this in a passive + active (not recommended) tank Tengu and had little to no trouble with it. I had to warp out once, but was 1 shotting frigates as they closed in. And sensor dampening failed most of the time.

~~Agent: Katsen Isha~~

~~Location: Poinen IV - Moon 13 - Nugoehuvi Corporation Development Studio~~

~~Mission Location: Malkalen~~

~~Rewards: 20~~ Nugoehuvi Synth Blue Pill ~~Booster<br>~~

~~Bonus Rewards: 1,970,000 ISK (6 Hour completion)~~

Selecting "Home in Peace" in either "A Difference of Opinion" or in "The Knowledge to Act" will only reward you with 25 million isk and Caldari State faction standing.
