Tips:

  • Use two Sensor Boosters with ECCM scripts to reduce chances of being jamed. (Only if needed, sometimes jammers never spawn.)
  • Kill the Recon Ships (Jammers) before triggering the third wave.

Blitz:

  • Destroy ships in first wave (Blackbirds only, not the Moa) and destroy the repair outpost.
  • If second wave is triggered, continue to focus on Blackbirds until mission completes.

Enemy cruisers stay at 35km range.

  • Either the Moa or the last ship is the trigger for the second wave.
  • The Moa has been observed to not spawn.
  • When you first warp in, if there is no Moa, the trigger will be one of the two ships that are a different type from the rest. Usually it is the two that are the first to aggro.
  • There are at least 3 subsequent waves, but they vary in composition and order. Consider the following as examples of what you might encounter.


Wave 1
WD EWAR L


Cruiser 1 x Cruiser Blackbird Target Jammer
Cruiser 1 x Cruiser Moa

The recon ships jam, a lot. The last Caracal triggers the third wave. Kill the jamming ships before triggering the third wave.


Wave 2

Cruiser 5 x Cruiser Caracal Last caracal triggers next wave.
Elite Cruiser 2 x Elite Cruiser Rook Target Jammer

The last BC or the last ship triggers the next wave.
