Note
Group 4 will maintain lock once target painted or fired upon, but you must be within 40km of spawn location or the group will return to it. This group can change lock after returning to spawn location.Tip
Using Sentry drones within about 80km of a group causes the whole room to aggro. However, in each stage it's possible to position yourself so that you can happily take out at least the first group without aggro from the others (except as noted).Optional Approach
For pilots using Abbadon, Apocalypse, and Paladins w/ Megapulse lasers there is a very safe way of doing this mission:- Get into weapons range of the Bounty Hunters around 55km with radio. Attack and kill both of them. This will aggro the entire room, once the attack starts then turn left and fly parallel with the incoming group.
- Target priority should be Frigates, Cruisers and then Battleships once they reach 20- 25km. Light drones will make short work of the frigates .
Blitz
- Pocket 1: Kill all ships.
- Pocket 2: Kill group 3 (the group with the Mordus Mammoth) this will get you stage aggro. To avoid that, fly towards the right edge of the group and wait until the ships of group 3 start attacking your ship. Afterwards you can take down the ships without aggro from the rest in the room .
Loot and Bounty
Loot + salvage: ~17.4 milBounty: ~10.6 Mil (all ships)
