Once again, killing enemy ships is futile, as they simply respawn. Enemy ships apply neuts, so it is recommended to bring T1 Logistic cruisers with 3-4 medium remote cap transfers (also large can be used in some strategies) and maintain cap chain with one of them (cap chain cruisers [[Osprey]] and [[Augoror]] are recommended). | Once again, killing enemy ships is futile, as they simply respawn.

This means you will want DPS ships to equip [[Warp Disruptor]] (long point).

This site aims to destroy a single structure. However, it starts invulnerable and only gets vulnerable once 3 data cans are hacked. Each hacked can starts a 90 seconds timer, so if the cans are hacked simultaneously, there is a 90 second window for damaging the target. The hp of the target is estimated to be ≈410k. | |||
Common group compositions are 5 DPS with strong active tank, 3 of which have [[Hacking|Data Analyzer]] equipped; or 4 DPS with 1 Logi. | Common group compositions are 5 DPS with strong active tank, 3 of which have [[Hacking|Data Analyzer]] equipped; or 4 DPS with 1 Logi. | ||

In addition to the site's payout, the (event) ore can be sold to NPC buy orders at 5000 ISK/unit. The site contains 17.5M ISK worth of ore (less with residue). One possible tactic is for a 6th person in a hauler to wait outside of the site so that they do not get part of reward, but they gather all jetcanned ore and sell it. | In addition to the site's payout, the (event) ore can be sold to NPC buy orders at 5000 ISK/unit.

There are 12 asteroids in the site with 1200{{m3}} each. Every fully mined asteroid triggers a payout for the fleet and spawns a cache with valuable artifacts that can be sold to NPC buy orders.

Every 2 minutes an NPC wave spawns even if the previous is not cleared, bringing the players under heavy damage pressure. There are 16 waves, the 16th being guaranteed loss.

This site is probably the most challenging, as you will have increasingly more difficult waves spawn on you and it seems near impossible to "outlast" the increasing number of increasingly difficult rats. As a Venture might be not tanky enough, it is usually replaced with Cruisers ([[Vexor]], [[Moa]]) with miners equipped. Possible group compositions include 5 Miners with active tank, 4 Miners with 1 Logi, 4 Miners with 1 DPS (to clear the waves and make pressure smaller), 3 Miners + 1 DPS + 1 Logi. | This site is probably the most challenging, as you will have increasingly more difficult waves spawn on you and it seems near impossible to "outlast" the increasing number of increasingly difficult rats.
