Single pocket. Every enemy in this mission is elite. Warp in 60k from 5x battleships, 3x cruisers and 5x frigates | Single pocket. Every enemy in this mission is elite. Warp in 60k from 5x battleships, 3x cruisers and 5x frigates. The Pator 6 elite battleships are the true challenge in this mission - they're well tanked and fire cruise missiles and artillery that do tremendous damage at quite long range. The two main ways to beat them is either to consistently outrange them (>120km range) or to fly a low sig ship like a HAC, T3 or pirate faction cruiser (an armor-tanked Ishtar loaded with Ogre II drones is perfect for this) so the missiles don't hurt as much. If you can't do either of them, overheat your weapons and tank and try to burn one down before you're forced to warp out. This mission isn't deadspace, so you can drop bookmarks and warp out and in again at range as needed. Killing the last battleship spawns 6 more non-elite battleships (which are quite easy, but destroy them first) plus a named battleship "Rosulf Fririk". Rosulf is pretty nasty, but in comparison to the elite battleship spawn he's actually not that bad. He'll try to kite you at 60km, so you may have trouble with short range weapons unless you're faster than him. Rosulf will drop your mission objective, and you're essentially done with the arc! | ||
