Mission briefing

The bug appears to be working well. We've been picking up a lot of messages from the Pator 6. For such a relatively small-time gang, they have quite a large network established. I don't know why we haven't noticed them earlier. We'll have to keep this bug going for a bit. There are a few breaking stories in there, or at least some info we could sell. While the Pator 6 has a rather large foothold throughout the region, we heard one system repeated over and over again: Palmon. I asked some of my sources in that system, and they sent me the coordinates of some sort of junkyard with a lot of traffic from unlicensed Minmatar pilots. I have a distinct feeling that the kid is there, or at least he was at one point... Hang on. We just intercepted a message from our bug. Looks like the Pator 6 is expecting company soon. Time to crash the party. See who the meeting is with, and try to bring back something we can pin on the gang. We need evidence that Ralie was there if we're going to bust this case open. Gotta warn you, though: A battleship won't be much good here. From what I've seen, they have a means of keeping battleships out of their hideouts. Thus, don't take one on this mission.

May also be in the same highsec system as Mission 9.

Warp-in

The acceleration gate at warpin is locked. Destroy all NPCs to unlock the gate. No Faction Standing loss for destroying these ships. At the deadspace entry point there are four heavy missile batteries and four Pator 6 cruisers. They can deal significant damage, along with neuting and some target painting, but no points. You don’t need to destroy the missile batteries (these (used to?) give a 3.0% standing loss with the Syndicate faction).

Room 1

There are a lot of ships here: 10 cruisers and 11 frigates, a mix of Pator 6 and Syndicate. Fortunately, they are easy to kite in a frigate if you have an afterburner and do good damage from 10km or more.

After most ships (possibly just group 1) are destroyed, the agent gives instructions to destroy Pator 6 HQ Structure. Destroying Pator 6 HQ flags the mission completed. Retrieve 1x "Ralie Ardanne's Belongings" (1.0 m3) from the can and return to the agent.
