ExpandMission briefing

Wow. I've never heard of this before. Studio I must be a recent development among traffickers. I really don't know much about it, but something feels off about the situation. I mean, I've been a part of some really nasty enterprises in my time – trafficking for drugs, medical experiments, slavery, you name it – but something like Studio I? No way; nothing like that. This looks like a joint operation between Impetus and the Syndicate. I don't know how close that relationship is, or how high up on the corporate chain it goes. But we know the kid is there. Get in there and get him. Destroy the Studio, too. Nothing good can come from it.

Studio I is among the hardest Epic Arc Missions. You have to fight up to 6 Elite Battleship with 300 DPS at 40 km that approach you at 1000 m/s. You will need to overheat, manually pilot, create bookmarks, use long range weapons and propulsion modules to defeat them. Consider asking a friend for help.

Gated semi-deadspace pocket two jumps away in Osmeden.

Blitz: strongly discouraged; destroy all ships at warp-in, take the Gate and destroy Studio I Structure.

Tips:

• Complete the Mission by destroying the Studio I Structure
• The Studio I has about 148000 Hitpoint
• Studio I drops the Holoreel: Wanted for Love lore item
• Warp at 100 km and use propulsion modules to keep away from Elite Battleships
• Create Bookmarks and warp between two of them to get distance from the enemy
• Use miscellaneous Structures as warp points
• Align to a Structure and warp away if you need to
• Overheat your Shield or Armour modules
• Destroy Frigates and Cruisers first
• -0.3 standing loss to the Syndicate for destroying Studio I structure.

Warp-in

ExpandStudio I

Unlicensed studios are a rare breed in the Gallente Federation. With the freedoms instilled into Gallente culture, the power of expression has almost limitless boundaries with which to explore. But there's a market for everything, and warped minds require debased stimulation, a desire fulfilled by unlicensed studios such as Studio I. The underworld is sick and diseased, and this studio is more impetus for wanton depravity.

I don't know how they discovered our location, but let's get out of here. You Matari bastards, take the kid with you and meet up with us. Deliver the senator's son to us, then get out of this region. You'll never work with us again. Same with you, Gian. The deal's off. Your sick plans are shut down.
