Structures
No lootPocket 4 (Amarr ships)
The Amarr fleet spawn is timed, not (necessarily) dependent on attacking the control tower. Both groups auto aggro upon warp in.
The mission repeatedly tells you to hurry up, and they mean it. It will take approx 2h before the Amarr fleet spawns. This fleet will include more ships than just those noted below. Some spawns may include ships that can web/scramble.
Group 1
30-35km1x Imperial Sentry Gun
1x Cruiser (Imperial Equalizer)
Group 2
40-45km1x Imperial Sentry Gun
2x Cruisers (Imperial Agatho/Avenger/Donus)
Spawn 1
Triggered when you attack the Control Tower6-10km from Control Tower
5x Cruisers (Imperial Avenger/Equalizer)
Spawn 2 (will not spawn if Control Tower is destroyed)
Triggered when last ship in spawn one is attacked5x Elite Frigates (Divine Imperial Paladin/Napat/Valok) - Note: Regularly drops Aggro and retargets Drones
Spawn 3 (will not spawn if Control Tower is destroyed)
Triggered when ship is attacked in spawn 21x Cruisers (Imperial Donus/Equalizer/Maller)
3x Battlecruisers (Imperial Templar Seer) (nos)
Tips:
- If you destroy the Control Tower, spawn 2 and 3 will not spawn
- You can fit a tractor beam to pull in the data chip can quickly, if you don't want to sacrifice a mid slot to an afterburner
- Watch out for the Seers, which will nos you at 25 km, and are pretty fast
- Remember to destroy the Control Tower to collect the data chip
- Don't take too long, or the fleet will get you (see Xalib Zondos' story in comments)
