Spawn triggers are the highest bounty battleships in a particular group. Their names will randomly change, so be sure to identify them correctly via their bounty. The incoming damage is almost completely kinetic, only the elite cruisers deal noticeable thermal damage.
Tip:
- Destroying the Starbase Control Tower will in second room prevent reinforcement group from appearing. It will however, aggro Group 2 in the process.
- Recommended order of elimination: 1st, 3rd and finally 2nd group (also including reinforcement spawn when triggered).
- Mission is flagged completed once you have eliminated all ships from the 3rd Group.
- One Habitation Module drops 10 each of 2 low value trade goods.
Blitz:
- 1st Pocket: warp through the gate without killing anything.
- 2nd Pocket: eliminate all ships in Group 3. Warp out.
1st pocket
Auto aggro from 1st group. 2nd group and spawn will aggro drones.
The gate to next room is not locked.
Tip: There's fleet aggro in this pocket. First pilot to warp in will get the aggro from the 1st Group, but no aggro from the 2nd Group. Remaining fleet members who warp in later will receive aggro from 2nd Group when they start to open fire on the 1st Group.

2nd pocket
Attacking the 2nd Group will aggro the 3rd Group. Reinforcement spawn and elite frigates will aggro drones.
The incoming damage is quite high from initial defenders alone. The battleships like to orbit you at 50 km and lob scourge cruise missiles at you.
Destroying the starbase control tower prevents reinforcements from spawning.
Last ship from reinforcement group 1 triggers second reinfocrement group.
