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.
No drone aggro. You can deploy drones normally, but watch out if you have them set to aggressive. They may attack Group 1 if left on auto.

- Elite Drone Parasite battleships will deal heavy Thermal/Kin damage.
- Elite Drone Parasites lasts about an hour before disappearing. 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.
