Fly to the designated mission location. You'll see Kritsan Parthus in an Independent [[Harbinger]] (Battlecruiser), escorted by five Mercenary Rookie frigates. Beware: Parthus' ship will [[Capacitor warfare|neut]] (drain your capacitor) if you get too close - orbit at a distance and kite him, or use drones or missiles to take him out. Another alternative is to speed tank him close range (orbit at 500m) in a fitted and fast frigate like a [[Rifter]] with one or two 'Overdrive Injector System I' (my 10-day old char was able to pull this off). Even with 0 cap, a Minmatar frigate can still pound him with Projectiles and Rockets.
This is the second difficult mission of the epic arc. It is similar in difficulty to Mission 28: Burining Down the Hive.


You may/should have to destroy his escorts first. Once you destroy the 5 escorts another three Mercenary Fighters will spawn. Killing the Fighters will be the end of spawns.
Kritsan Parthus is flying an Independent [[Harbinger]] (Battlecruiser), escorted by five Mercenary Rookie frigates. Parthus' ship will [[Capacitor warfare|neut]] (drain your capacitor) if you get too close.
 
Destroy his escorts first. Lead them away from Parthus by manually piloting your ship. Once you destroy the five escorts another three Mercenary Fighters will spawn. Killing the Fighters will not spawn more enemy ships.
 
Orbit at a distance and use drones or missiles to take him out. Use a [[Catalyst/Fittings|Epic Arc Dagan Killer]] fitting or a Minmatar frigate fitted with Projectiles and Rockets. <br>
Alternatively, activated your afterburner until you reach the 500m orbit around Parthus then fire at him. Use a fast frigate like a [[Rifter]] with one or two 'Overdrive Injector System I'.


('''2020-10-06 Update''': It is possible to pop the Battlecruiser and ignore the others, but you'll need a good tank to handle the incoming fire. Doing this will not spawn the additional three mercenary fighters, and as soon as you kill the Battlecruiser , the item you need is automatically deposited to your cargo hold. There is no need to loot the wreck. Kritsan Parthus's Energy neut is 100 GJ every ten seconds.)
