Pocket 1
Three groups at initial warp in, no aggro. All groups aggro independently.
Group 1:
25-35km
4x Frigates (Mercenary Fighter)
3x Cruisers (Mercenary Corporal)
Group 2:
40-45km
4x Frigates (Mercenary Elite Fighter)
2x Cruisers (Mercenary Commander)
Group 3:
45-50km
2x Frigates (Mercenary Wingman) (web)
1x Cruiser (Mercenary Lieutenant)
1x Cruiser (Drazin Jaruk) (web)
Structures:
50 Commodities
10 Illegal Drugs
Habitat holds 3x Drazin Keycard - needed to activate gate to second stage. There are three incase you would need to warp out and back: each gate activation consumes one keycard.
Asteroids:
Veldspar - 9 asteroids
Scordite - 11 asteroids
Omber - 11 asteroids @ 15k each totalling 165k Omber.
As they are behind the acceleration gate they take a bit more time to do than normally. The omber is worth more than the mission bonus. But you can (I did) make in time to get the bonus reward as well. (using 2 hulks)
Pocket 2
This stage varied quite a bit on the 2 occasions I tried. The Zerak Cheryn version is at 10-20k on warp in & in his Gallente cruiser can be extremely harsh at close range and would be best taken out first if you can tank the two webbing frigates. The Kuran 'Scarface' Lonan version (Caldari based) is at 40-50k on warp in & and is easy to tank.
Single Group:
20-40km
2x Frigates (Mercenary Wingman) web/scramble
1x Cruiser (Mercenary Lieutenant)
1x Cruiser (Drazin Jaruk/Korrani Salemo (MOA-web)/Kuran 'Scarface' Lonan/Lynk (web)/Zerak Cheryn (ewar invulnerable) (web))
