Part 1 of 3
Faction: None
Mission type: Encounter
Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: EM in pocket 1
Recommended damage dealing: Any
Recommended ship classes: Battleship, Command Ship, Battlecruiser, HAC
Note: Fitting a microwarpdrive (or at least an afterburner) is highly recommended.
Warp In
There are 5 Pods when you warp in, one of them is not damaged (Show info on each pod to find the one with the description not including "This escape pod has been damaged..."). Approaching this undamaged pod will pop up a message and spawn a container. Loot the passenger Oura Madusaari; this passenger is needed to unlock the acceleration gate. Oura Madusaari remains in cargo (October 19th 2011).
Approaching the other four "damaged" pods will pop up a message and the pod contains a Stranded Pilot (not needed to complete the mission).
Looting the highest pod vertically will spawn a separate can that contains Oura Madusaari.
Oura Madusaari functions like a gate key and doesn't despawn. Keep one of her in cargo and you can skip the life pods and go straight through the gate.
Pocket 1
You will encounter periodic damage from the anomaly from about 5000m, 5 hits around 200 - 400, Initially there are 4 Debris Silos(a popup message appears after destroying each of them, You will get damage upon destruction of each silo, 5 hits around 300 - 500), destroy the silo closest to the Anomaly (7 o'clock). Its destruction causes the wreck of the "Paryi" to appear. Approach the wreck and a pop up will appear along with a container from which the mission objective (Dr. Fajah Ateshi) must be looted.
The Debris Silos drop T1 ammo.
Using 'Combat' drones in order to kill the silo can kill them even before the silo is destroyed (as of 19 October 2011). 'using sentry drones will take damage but wont break there shields.'
1) You must go to the pod that says "A life pod from a long since destroyed ship" in its Show Info.
2) Get Oura Madusari from the cargo container that spawns.
3) Use gate to next room and destroy the silo, that is located at 7'clock closest to the anomaly. Get the doctor and get out :)
Part 2 of 3
Faction: None
Mission type: Encounter
Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: EM
Recommended damage dealing: None needed
Recommended ship classes: Battleship, Command Ship, Battlecruiser, HAC
Note: Fitting a microwarpdrive (or at least an afterburner) is highly recommended.
Warp to the Anomaly, use the (now unlocked) acceleration gate.
When approaching the Anomaly (30km from warp in point) it will spawn an Amarr Cruise missile battery. There is no need to destroy the sentry, as when you approach the anomaly, a message appears and it ceases firing. Place the "Neurowave Pattern Scanner" you received from your agent in the Anomaly to complete the mission. Warping into the pocket causes two waves of 2000 EM damage one shortly after the other.
Silos drop Ammo.
Part 3 of 3
Faction: Rogue drones
Mission type: Encounter
Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: All kinds ( Standard Rogue Drone: More Exp/Kin less EM/Therm )
Recommended damage dealing: EM
Recommended ship classes: Battleship, Command Ship, Battlecruiser, HAC, Navy Apoc works
Webbing frigates WILL scramble as well, once your armor has dropped, BEWARE!
Drones will aggro other groups, but not spawn groups.
Attacking any ship in Pocket 2 will aggro the entire pocket; however, spawned reinforcements remain passive unless attacked.
Attacking a passive reinforcement will also aggro all other passive ships.
Pocket 1
As you warp in there are 4 groups of Rogue Drones.Group 1 ( Auto-Aggro)
2x BS ( Patriach Alvus, Alvus Creator, Alvus Ruler )Group 2
3x Cruiser ( Devastator Alvum, Viral Infector Alvum )2x BC ( Crippler Alvatis, Striker Alvatis )
Group 3
4x Frigate ( Barracuda Alvi, Devilfish Alvi )(Web/Scram)2x Cruiser ( Devastator Alvum, Viral Infector Alvum )
Last kill in each group triggers a respawn:
Group 1 Spawn:
3x BS ( Patriarch Alvus, Spearhead Alvus, Swarm Preserver )Group 2 Spawn:
3x Destroyer( Predator Alvior, Shredder Alvior )3x BC ( Crippler Alvatis, Defeater Alvatis )
Group 3 Spawn:
2x Frigate ( Devilfish Alvi )2x BS ( Alvus Controller, Spearhead Alvus )
Note regarding the acceleration gate: Initially it is not an actual acceleration gate but a "Large Collidable Object" looking like one; it will also not show on the overview. Only after the destruction of the two BCs from Group 2 will the fake gate be changed into a proper acceleration gate that leads to Pocket 2.
Blitz: Destroy the two BCs (Crippler/Striker Alvatis) in group 2 to "spawn" the acceleration gate. The gate is not locked, but warp scrambling frigates will prevent you from using it.
Pocket 2
Initial Spawn
1-2x Sunder Alvi (frigate) Trigger1x Hunter Alvi (frigate)
1-2x Strain Render Alvi (frigate) (Web/Scram)
1x Striker Alvatis (Battle-cruiser)
Attacking and killing the scrambling frigate(s) did not cause the additional spawn. Attacking one of the Sunder Alvi did however.
If you can oneshot the frigs the second spawn WILL NOT appear. Make sure you get 2 shots off on them.
Spawn
2x Frigate ( Decimator Alvi, Render Alvi )3x Cruiser ( Disintegrator Alvum, Violator Alvum )
1x BC ( Defeater Alvatis )
4x BS ( Swarm Preserver, Domination Alvus, Supreme Alvus Preserver, Spearhead Alvus )
These seem to be two separate groups and they can aggro drones.
Blitz: Use an afterburner to make your way to the rogue drone ship and drop Fajah Ateshi into the can which completes the mission, no drones have to be killed.
The Anomaly is 30-50 km away from the warp-in. Dropping Fajah Ateshi inside the "Rogue Drone" ship next to it completes the mission and leads to the destruction of the (Orca-Class) "Anomaly" a few seconds later. Alternatively you may put Fajah Ateshi inside "Anomaly", it will disapear (jump out probably) and mission will be completed with trying to save the crew.
Bounty totaled 8.85m (I got 9+ mil); loot was eliminated effective with Escalation [April 2012]. Salvage was maybe worth 750k [almost not worth doing]. (1.54 mil est price for me)
