====Pocket 1====

Auto aggro from Spawn 1 after several seconds. __New spawns will appear at an interval between 60-90 secs__.
These spawns will start from the three Shipyard structures, each about 20-30km from the warp-in point.
**Structures** drop no loot.

Drones will get aggroed by the later spawns, so retrieve/deploy them as necessary to avoid damage.

__**Warning**__
- Once Spawn 1 has been initiated, the Shipyards will keep spawning ships regardless of your location. If you had warped out, there will be a full gang waiting when next you warp-in.
- The full gang's DPS estimate is ~900-1100dps.
- The loot from the battleships is generally rather good (usually about 2m/each).

===Spawn 1 (Auto-aggro):===
1x Elite Cruiser (Elder Corpum Dark Priest/Shadow Sage) **NOS**
1x Battlecruiser (Corpior Phantom)
1x Battleship (Corpus Pope/Patriarch)

===Spawn 2 (Auto-aggro):===
1x Elite Cruiser (Elder Corpum Dark Priest/Shadow Sage) **NOS**
2x Battleships (Corpus Pope/Monsignor/Cardinal) **NOS**

===Spawn 3 (Auto-aggro):===
1x Elite Cruiser (Elder Corpum Sage/Priest) **NOS**
2x Battleships (Corpus Pope) **NOS**

===Spawn 4 (Auto-aggro):===
3x Battleships (Corpus Pope/Monsignor/Cardinal/Patriarch) **NOS**

==Tip:==
- You do not need to kill any hostile ships in this pocket. The warp gate is unlocked and sits about 24km from the warp-in point.
- You can use any fast frigate/cruiser (over 500m/s) to evasively tank Spawn 1 and quickly cover the distance to warp off through the gate.
- Mission is flagged completed once you have activated the gate and warped into Pocket 2.


====Pocket 2====

You will receive the mission completed message/journal update.
You can just warp off without needing to kill any hostile ships in this pocket.

Auto aggro from Spawn 1 after several seconds. __Next spawn will appear in 60-90 secs__.

===Spawn 1 (Auto-aggro):===
3x Elite Cruisers (Elder Corpum Sage) **NOS**
2x Battleships (Corpus Cardinal)

===Spawn 2 (Auto-aggro):===
3x Elite Frigates (Elder Corpii Collector) **Web/Scramble/Tracking Disruptor**
2x Elite Cruisers (Elder Corpum Arch Priest) **NOS**

==Tip:==
- After receiving the mission completed message/journal update, you can just warp off.

==Bounty==
9 M for first pocket

3 M for second pocket

==Blitz:==
- Pocket 1: Just fly to the warp gate and activate it.
- Pocket 2: Warp off after receiving the mission completed message/journal update.

==Mining:==
- Pocket 1: Nothing
- Pocket 2: You land right on 184 Veldspar Roids, they hold 6.5M Veldspar in total.
