Direct warp into Deadspace. No gate.

Warp-In

    • Note:** Only the Special Forces Squadron that appears at 8 minutes after warp-in needs to be destroyed to complete this mission. However, if you approach to under 10km from the Ghost Ship, it will trigger numerous additional spawns that are optional to destroy. Realize that sometimes this accidentally occurs at warp-in. The Warp-In Beacon is 12km from the Ghost Ship, and your exact warp-in spot can be + or – 2.5km from this beacon. If your warp-in does not land you within the 10km proximity, and if you don’t want to trigger these spawns, then be sure to head away from the Ghost Ship after warp-in.

Objective Group:

    • Special Forces Squadron:** spawns at 35 – 45km away at 8 minutes after warp-in:


WD EWAR L


Frigate 4 x Frigate Taibu State Nagasa/Shinai Warp Disruptor Stasis Webifier
Cruiser 2 x Cruiser Taibu State Daimyo/Shugo Target Jammer
Cruiser 4 x Cruiser Taibu State Bajo/Samurai
Battleship 6 x Battleship State Shukuro Shogun
Sentry 4 x Sentry Tower Sentry Caldari III
Sentry 2 x Sentry Caldari Cruise Missile Battery
Sentry 2 x Sentry Caldari Energy Neutralizer Sentry III Energy Neutralizer

Optional Spawns:

    • Ghost Ship Spawn **- Proximity Triggered: When you approach to under 10km from the Ghost Ship, there spawns:
WD EWAR L


Frigate 6 x Frigate Taibu State Katana/Wakizashi/Nagasa/Shinai shooting a frigate triggers Spawn 1a Warp Disruptor Stasis Webifier
Cruiser 3 x Cruiser Taibu State Bajo/Samurai shooting a cruiser triggers Spawn 2a


Spawn 1a
WD EWAR L


Battleship 6 x Battleship State Shukuro Shogun Spawn 1b


Spawn 1b:
WD EWAR L


Frigate 3 x Frigate Taibu State Shirasaya/Suriage Warp Disruptor Stasis Webifier
Battlecruiser 3 x Battlecruiser State Shukuro Bajo/Samurai
Battleship 4 x Battleship State Shukuro Bishamon/Shogun

Spawn 2b:
WD EWAR L


Cruiser 2 x Cruiser Taibu State Bajo/Samurai
Battlecruiser 4 x Battlecruiser State Shukuro Bajo/Samurai
Battleship 4 x Battleship State Shukuro Bishamon/Shogun

Tips:
- Special Forces Squadron deals 1301hp/s (Kin: 71%, Therm: 29%)

- If triggered, initial Ghost Ship spawns will deal an additional 1390 hp/s (Kin: 73%, Therm: 27%)

- Have the “Types” column available in your overview if you want to separately identify each Special Forces tower type and ship

- Retrieve 3 units of Citizens from the 3 Citizen Quarters at 25km (1000 m3/each), //Objective//

Tips:

- No Energy Neutralizer Towers means this mission is Active Tank friendly
- Timed Spawns more often than not seem to aggro secondary teammates and drones
- Consider FoF missiles and setting drones to “Aggressive” for when you are unable to target because of Jammers
- Each pocket’s final spawn of Jammers + Scramblers can trap one in prolonged HEAVY damage
- Pocket 1’s max damage dealing of all ships: 2,418 hp/s (Kin: 72%, Therm: 28%)

- Pocket 2’s max damage dealing of all ships: 2,484 hp/s (Kin: 78%, Therm: 22%)

- Pocket 3's max damage dealing of all ships: 2,369 hp/s (Kin: 73%, Therm: 27%)

5 x Fighters (State Fighter) Fighter Group 5

Carrier (B):
As the Second Carrier’s shields are reduced there spawns:

    • At 40% Shields**

5 x Fighters (State Fighter) Fighter Group 2 (B)

    • At 50% Armor**

5 x Fighters (State Fighter) Fighter Group 3 (B)

    • At 10% Armor**

5 x Fighters (State Fighter) Fighter Group 4 (B)

    • At 50% Structure**

5 x Fighters (State Fighter) Fighter Group 5 (B)

Tips:
- Mission occurs in normal space, so you can always warp to distances and to bookmarks farther away from the NPCs.
- Warping to within 100km leaves plenty of distance that spreads out the aggro
- Carriers NOS has a range of 150km
- Fighters will immediately attack your drones when they spawn from the Carrier, but this can be used to your advantage
- Small Drones are invulnerable to the Fighters, as long as they are moving/attacking; and they are a great way to draw-off the Fighter's aggro.
- Have your small drones attacking the carrier when the fighters spawn.
- Mission is flagged complete after both Carriers are destroyed
