Tips

- For Group 2 : To reduce incoming DPS, eliminate the Mercenary Commanders first. Watch out for any scrambling frigates and shift your primary target accordingly.
- Mission is flagged completed after you have eliminated Shadow. Don't forget to loot the 1x Report dropped (needed to close the mission).
