Structures
No loot is dropped by the ruined Stargate or the Cathedrals.BLITZ
Pocket 1: Kill everythingPocket 2: Only the ships in the group with the transports needs to be destroyed to complete objectives. Don't forget to loot the 10 Militants.
Another Approach
I've kited this in an armor-tanked Kronos without ever getting into armor(!) All you need in both pockets is an AB and keep range at around 70km, with guns that do good damage at that range. Hardly get hit at all.I've sniped from the warp-in beacon in a Domi with Bouncer II, starting with closest Hostile (group 2 was closer) only got to 75% Shield.
2nd room on the other hand hostiles close in fast either burn off or MJD when the heat gets too intense.
Loot and bounty
Loot + Salvage: ~6.6 to 7.2 mil (http://evepraisal.com/e/15884441)Bounty: ~7.4 mil
