Web/scramble: Spider Drone
Extras: NA
Recommended damage dealing: Therm (best all round), Kin (secondary)

Single Pocket
Auto-aggro from Initial Group at warp-in.
It is recommended that you set your drones to passive to avoid hitting the trigger ship (Kruul) accidentally.
All spawns will appear near the Kruul's Pleasure Garden structures. They may target drones/fleets members.
Warning
- Spawn 1 is triggered when Kruul is attacked. Make sure you save him for last.
- Spawn 2 is triggered when Kruul's Pleasure Garden is damaged to ~25% armor remaining.
- Spawn 3 is triggered when Kruul's Pleasure Garden is damaged to ~40% hull remaining.
The Damsel is in Kruul's Pleasure Garden which sits the farthest away from the warp in Beacon.
Be careful when you blow it up. It deals 3000 Exp AOE damage (at 0% Exp resistance) with a blast radius of between 30-40km.
Don't waste your time on Kruul's Pleasure Garden closest to the warp-in Beacon. There is nothing it it.

Tip
- Spawn 1 can be prevented from appearing if you destroy Kruul's Casino before you begin your attack on Kruul.
- Killing Kruul in one volley prevents him calling for help.
- Mission is flagged completed after you have destroyed Kruul's Pleasure Garden that holds the Damsel.
Structures
- Kruul's Casino drops NPC trade goods/passengers.
Blitz
- Kill/ignore the cruisers/battleships from the initial group.
- Destroy Kruul's Casino to prevent Spawn 1 from appearing. After this, you can either kill/ignore Kruul.
- Destroy (the correct) Kruul's Pleasure Garden and pickup the Damsel. Kill/ignore the remaining spawns as they appear.
