Faction: Mercenaries
Mission type: Encounter
Space Type: Normal space
Damage dealt: Thermal+Kinetic for Spawns 1-3. However Spawn 4 is Explosive+Thermal, with slight EM.
Extras: Structure deals AOE damage when blown up. (1200 untanked dmg)
Recommended damage dealing: Thermal.
Recommended ship: Dominix, Typhoon, Maelstrom
Range: If you stay still, then all the ships will orbit from 7km-20km. Great for salvaging if you can tank them upclose.
Single Pocket
The ships are named differently than normal, for example, the Pleasure Hub Sentinel is actually a Mercenary Overlord.
Initial Spawn
Attacking Kruul will trigger 6 battleships (Spawn Two), so save him for last.3x Frigates, (Kruul's Henchmen)
4x Cruisers, (Pleasure Hub Guardian aka Mercenary Corporals) Orbits at 17km. Use kinetic ammo, but thermal is ok.
3x Battleships, (Pleasure Hub Sentinel aka Mercenary Overlords) Orbits at 4km. Use thermal ammo.
1x Kruul, (Trigger) (Warning: For me Spawn Two has arrived without me attacking Kruul. So be careful Spawn Two may come w/o triggering Kruul).
I would suggest that you take out the battleships first, then the cruisers, then frigs, and LASTLY, Kruul.
Set your drones to passive so they won't shoot at Kruul by accident and trigger the second spawn.
Spawn Two
This group will trigger spawn right next to Kruul's Pleasure Gardens, and they will want to orbit you at 4km so they can do full dmg.6x Battleships (Pleasure Hub Sentinel aka Mercenary Overlords) Orbits at 4km. Use thermal ammo.
Spawn Three
This trigger spawns when the Kruul's Pleasure Gardens that contains the damsel reaches 25% shields. You have to guess which one of the two she's in.4x Battleships (Pleasure Hub Sentinel aka Mercenary Overlords) Orbits at 4km. Use thermal ammo.
4x Cruisers (Pleasure Hub Guardian aka Mercenary Corporals) Orbits at 17km. Use kinetic ammo, but thermal is ok.
2x Spider Drone (WEB) Orbits at 7km.
Spawn Four
This will spawn when the Kruul's Pleasure Gardens that contains the Damsel (quest item) is almost through it's hull.5x Frigates (Seven Death Dealers) Orbits at 7km. Use thermal ammo.
3x Cruisers (Seven Assassins) Orbits at 15km. Very vulnerable to explosive. Kinetic is second best, thermal is third and still okay to use.
1x Battleship (Zor) Orbits at 20km. Easy to kill. He has a chance to web/scramble you but I've never seen him do it.
Once you kill the pleasure garden, it will trigger an explosion (3000 explosive damage).
The damsel will be in one of the cargo containers.
The other one will have some illegal drugs in it. I got 10 crystal egg, 10 drop, 20 frentix, 10 mindflood, and 10 nerve sticks.
Blitz
If you destroy the casino before kruul, then Spawn Two won't appear.
You can continue attacking Kruul's Pleasure Gardens until it blows up. Then loot the can for the damsel, and warp out.
(Spawn Four will trigger when it's halfway through the armor)
