Just did the GE, in stage 5 i blowed up all Structures (including War installation), but the Spawnchain did start.
Can not confirm the blizz for stage 5, stage 2-4 worked!

Comment by JanjanJansen

2008-06-11 11:23:35

It didn't work in stage 5 for me

Comment by DirkFallows

2008-06-30 08:23:22

3 omber and 3 veld roids in stage 3

Comment by BoomShaka

2008-07-23 04:39:14

stage 5 blitz is wrong... but confirm 2-4 working as well.

Comment by KireHunted

2008-07-30 19:05:40

I didn't get a BC spawn 2 of Pocket 3

Also while most the BS names are correct it does seem to vary for the first few pockets

Comment by KireHunted

2008-07-31 11:27:54

Any agression against the final trigger including NOS causes the spawn.

Comment by SniperLuke

2008-09-08 20:03:29

killed the war installation, got 10 ogre 1s, 350 frozen food, 200 metal scraps, 600 bane torpedos, 1000 antimatter large. Not worth the 1000 cruises ammo to kil the war installation.

Comment by WikiLenzman

2008-11-30 17:24:18

storage facility NEVER dropped dg mod. Got this mission more than 25 times. (my loot was ALWAYS 50 metal scraps, 10 frozen food, 10 oxygen, 10 livestock, 10 enriched uranium)

Comment by KerbEros

2008-12-07 15:20:03

Storage facility has dropped a DG shield boost amp for me.
Only once out of about 20 runs tho.

Comment by HarikoTenaga

2008-12-08 19:13:18

Pocket 4, spawn 1 I had Guristas Emissary (cruiser) as well, every time i've had it (about 7 or 8) since latest patch.

Comment by VaLTrantor

2009-01-29 14:50:02

Pocket 5 spawn 2 was for me:

4 * Pith Eliminator BS (jamming)
1 * Gurista Webifier (trigger)
3 * Dire Pithi Despoiler (jamming)

spawn 3:

4 * Pith Eradicator BS
4 * Pithior Guerilla
1 * Gurista Kyoukan (trigger - shooting on it is enough ;) )

Comment by Peon155

2009-02-11 13:46:38

BONUS Stage Spawn has been as follows for me:-

2 x Pithior Terrorist (DS)
2 x Pithior Supremacist (DS)
3 x Pithatis Death Dealer (BC)
2 x Pith Eliminator (BS)
1 x Pith Extinguisher (BS)
1 x Pith Usurper (BS)

Neither the Storage Facility or the Tactical Outpost dropped anything other than metal scraps and reports the first few times I did this mission and the bonus. However, the fourth time I got this, I had 2 x Dire Pithi Saboteur replacing the Terrorists, and the Tactical Outpost dropped a Dread Guristas BPC.

Comment by VaLTrantor

2009-02-20 05:20:14

Tactical Outpost and Storage Facility have very low hp, so shooting them doesnt hurt. I didnt have a faction drop in either of these, but what Peon155 said seems reasonable. Try to confirm this.

Comment by MelliNok

2009-03-01 18:15:06

Room 3 asteroids only yielded a total of 20K Veldspar and 3K Omber for me.

Comment by MrUndertaker

2009-03-19 15:45:02

I have runned this mission maybe more than 50 times but nevet got a DG mod but still blowing those bot structures it doesnt hurt like ValTrantor says.

Comment by IckyThump

2009-04-11 19:51:23

It appears that the mission completion trigger is eliminating all Battlecruisers and Battleships from the first spawn of Pocket 5.

Comment by SethDeVeldrin

2009-04-18 14:52:27

Left one Pithatis Enforcer from the pocket 5, group 1 alive last. Mission didn't complete before kill it. So, can partly confirm the group 1 BC/BS completion trigger.

Comment by MasterPhoenix

2009-05-21 21:33:32

Pocket 5, spawn 2 - This one had 3xBattleships (Pith Eliminators) plus destroyers and web(s)

Comment by BigbangNet

2009-06-02 23:34:42

the tag DOESN'T get consumed. you get to keep it after.

Comment by CrazySpaceHobo

2009-06-26 06:53:20

Mission Completes after all battleships in FIRST wave in pocket 5 are killed.

Comment by NachoCuban

2009-09-07 16:43:55

Initial Group in Pocket 2 had an extra destroyer (terrorist)

2nd Spawn in Pocket 3 did not have a BC

Comment by Peon155

2009-09-09 13:02:10

The Bonus stage Faction loot drop seems tied to whether you get some Dire Pithi ships or not. Have done this roughly 20 times and the 3 times I got a DG drop, I had Dire Pithi ships in the Bonus room. Without those it seems the loot drops are no better than any of the other pockets.

Comment by AleniaCalentas

2009-09-18 17:58:35

**Bonus Room Salvaging Tip**

If you use a salvaging alt or have weaker fleet members, activate the bonus room gate, cancel the activation, jettison the tag for your alt, then activate the gate again. This way, you can have your alt come in later after you have aggro'd all the NPCs.

Comment by SpLend0r

2009-10-08 11:56:24

Had this mission lot of times. Took 70-90 mins in Raven (CN cruises, faction mid, 3bcs), and the only faction stuff i had was a DG invu - from about 20-30 runs.

Comment by ExoTech

2009-10-11 18:34:52

Hi Slots
6 x XT Cruise launchers with paradise cruise missiles.
2 x dual 150mm Railgun (for frigates)

3 x Ballistic control system II
2 x Capacitor Flux Coil II

Mid Slots

Full T2 fitted Perma boost raven with damage mod hammerhead II followed the kills to a T and killed the triggers last so not to get overwelmed. Was easy to get finished.

Comment by RaikoOsburn

2010-09-05 06:57:32

5th pocket was harder cause of permanent jamming. Also dont forget to bring more ammo than usual. I had to make a trip to station cause of it.

Bounty + mission reward: cca 25.5 mil
Slavage and loot: not worth the time

Comment by InspectorDubplate

2011-03-06 03:56:39

Comment by LordNikon

2011-08-27 18:49:38

Got perma jammed (golem) in last pocket. After 10 minutes I gave up and turned in the mission.

Comment by Dethbringer1

2012-02-04 06:07:28

Working on this mission now in my navy megathron. I will not be doing this mission again any time soon. The first 4 pockets were rediculously easy but the 5th another story. I could not target anything until I took out the jammers. Killing the jammers causes more to respawn along with bs's. By the time I killed all the jammers, I was facing about 30 BS's. So I kill 2 warp out and make the 5 jump journey in to kill 2 more. At this point I'm wishing to die and put myself out of my misery. Normally I make between 5-15M every 15min cycle. This mission is worth like 25M and took me over 2hrs. Thats like 3m per 15mins. Totally not worth the time and aggrevation. Also used an excessive amount of my faction ammo.
