Recon is a three part mission. Part 2 and part 3 are the same for all factions.
Blitz: Use fast frigate to quickly take the acceleration gate in first room. Mission is completed when you land in second room.
1st pocket
The gates are not locked, so you can blitz this mission without a single kill. Go to warp gate, activate it, when you reach the next pocket you are done!
If you stay and fight:
- Groups spawn approximately 1 minute apart, starting just after warp-in.
- Rats will spawn approximately 30-45 km away and big ships orbit around 32km.
- All groups aggro on spawn, though they will aggro drones that are out as well.
- Bunker can drop commodities.
