Pocket 1 (Drones)
Auto-aggro from Group 1 sentries upon warp-in. Group 4 will show up near the Acceleration Gate several seconds after warp-in.
Attacking Group 1 will aggro the entire pocket.
Group 2 & 4 can be attacked independently without drawing pocket aggro.

- Elite Drone Parasites wrecks disappear after ~15 mins. Remember to loot them for the Elite Drone AIs before continuing (don't worry about salvaging the wrecks since it only gives Metal Scraps).
- Recommended order for elimination : Group 2, Group 4, Group 3 and finally Group 1.
