- Main article: Penumbra
Blackness Rising is the second chapter of Caldari epic arc Penumbra. This chapter contains no branches and it is same regardless of your choices done in first chapter. This chapter contains only two combat missions and all other are traveling or courier missions.
Mission 10 - Meet Sinas
Report to Sinas Egassuo's Chimera in Astoh
Mission 11 - Right Tool for the Job
Faction: Gallente Navy
Mission type: Encounter
Space type: Normal space
Damage dealt: Therm/Kin
Ewar: Web / point/ Sensor Dampening
Recommended damage dealing: Therm (best), Kin (secondary)
Data Analyzer and Hacking skill required to complete mission (check Tip #2)
Single Pocket (2 Groups)
Broadcast Tower Group is a mixed Fleet with 3 time based reinforcement spawns every 2 minutes) Complete Fleet after spawns :
| WD | EWAR | L
| ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
8 x Frigate Federation Praktor Belos | |||
|
|
7 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Machina/... | |||
|
5 x Destroyer Federation Arcus/... | |||
|
9 x Elite Cruiser Elite Federation Arx | |||
|
5 x Battlecruiser Federation Praktor Bearcus/... | |||
|
13 x Battleship Federation Covinus/... | |||
Tip: Time based spawns happen quickly. All ships will drop Gallente Navy Tags but be forewarned, negative standing hits incurred for Aggro / Ship Kill. Expect EWAR from Elite Frigates and Elite Cruisers. Probably a good idea to get help from friends before attacking this group.
| WD | EWAR | L
| ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
1 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Manica | 
|
||
|
|
2 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Matara | 
|
||
|
|
5 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Arcus | |||
Blitz: Warp in, ignore (DO NOT SHOOT) Broadcast Tower Group and quickly maneuver ship into range to destroy Federation Navy Shipyard Group. No need to destroy the Broadcast Tower. 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
Faction: Gallente Navy
Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: Therm/Kin
Ewar: Point/ Sensor Dampening
Recommended damage dealing: Therm (best), Kin (secondary)
Items Needed: Probe Launcher & Core Probes, Data Analyzer, 1x FedNav F.O.F. Identifier Tag AC-106V:FNSBR (Gained from Agent). <Items not needed if you buy the mission item from contracts>
Note: Mission site (Federation Detention Facility) is a Cosmic Signature (Combat Site) which must be probed to 100% first before warping to it. The site will spawn in each system within the Constellation when mission is accepted and will respawn if someone else completes it.
Blitz: Buy the 1x Caldari Prisoners Of War (0.5m3) on Contracts or market and complete the mission. No need to search/probe, hack, or fight anything.
The mission site consists of two deadspace pockets.
First Pocket 1x Newly Constructed Acceleration Gate (95km)
No NPC's most of the time but sometimes it ends up with:
| WD | EWAR | L
| ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
6 x Frigate Federation Praktor Phalarica/... | |||
|
|
3 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Lochos/... | |||
|
|
2 x Destroyer Federation Arcus/... | |||
| Group 2 | ||||
|
|
6 x Elite Frigate Elite Federation Phalarica/... | |||
|
|
3 x Elite Cruiser Elite Federation Arx |
|
||
| Group 3 | ||||
|
|
7 x Battleship Federation Praktor Magister/... |
|
||
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.
SecondPocket
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
Recommended Ship: Very fast frigate, interceptor or covert ops

The 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. There is no combat in the mission.
Tip: Same drill as before. Nano Interceptor/fast frigate/cloaky frigate and beware of gate camps.
