Missions & Complexes

I did this earlier today and the resists are Kinetic, Thermal, and EM you should equip. Didn't seem to be much explosion, I just equipped a t2 kinetic/therm/em hardener and did fine.

Used an Apoc, only had trouble with the first (warp in) location, the Macheriels for some reason took forever for me to kill. Other than that, I chewed through it pretty easy, make sure to prioritize the jammers. Some stuff spawns out to 60-80km so prepare to either have that range or be able to close in. Did it with a buddy but the split was like 15 mil each in bounty/mission completion payoff, and about 15-18 mil each in salv/loot. Make sure your salvager brings the gate key to loot beyond room one.

Other have said they were spawned on after they went back for salvage, but that didn't happen to me, perhaps they didn't wait long enough for the spawns to trigger? You can rush this mission by grabbing the key at the first entry and going straight for the boss. So if you hop the gate before a spawn triggers you'll have it waiting for you if you try and salvage, obviously. Usually the gates were 20k out from warp in to each room, and by the time my Apoc reached it (112ms) all spawns were killed in perfect timing.

Got this mission today.

As someone else already said, I did find it listed on eve.survival.org, but had to root for it some. Towards the top of the main page, where it says, "Categories (needs to be populated):" .. I clicked "Level 4" and it was in that list.

I'd come to the forum to report what almost happened to me, when I found this thread. I'm doing 4's solo in a Drake. The ship is solid, just slow, so I've been leaving missions with multiple gates (when it feels about time, before cans in completed pockets start disappearing) and fly back to base to grab my Noctis.

And, as has already been reported by someone else, be careful on this mission when/if you leave and return. I'd cleard all NPC's from the initial warp-in, Gate 1 and Gate 2, leaving the last room until I'd finished with salvage.

At the warp-in point, only the wrecks I expected to find. I sucked them all up and jumped through Gate 1. SURPRISE! I'm look'n down the barrel of a butt-load of enemies from around 15-20k. Of course, they all immediately lock and start chewing on the Noctis. I pack a cloaking device on the ship, but was so flabbergasted over the turn of events, I didn't even think to try triggering it. Thankfully, none of the NPC's were, evidently, web nor scramble capable. When warp -finally- kicked-in, they'd chewed the shield down good.

When I returned with the Drake, I had to fight my way back to where I'd quit prior. Again, I left the last room alone and got back to salvaging. Nothing spawned again. Got back to the Drake and finished the last room.

So, from what has already been said .. this mission is designed such and isn't malfunctioning.

Sweet loot on this one! From bounties alone, if I added correctly, I got $42,148,503 .. throw in the agent reward of $2,400,000 for a total of $44,548,503. Too, aside from the normal salvage/cargo fodder, I got 26 Armor Plates and 7 Tritanium Bars, which I've yet to sell.

Just FYI, no loot from Scarlet's Station.

That's not all that surprising when you consider that the mission pays out over 35 million in bounties.

If you also take the time to salvage everything you can rake in well over 50 million total or more.

Thanks, CCP, for a fun new mission that pays well.

I just got this mission; I'll do it after Down Time since I don't want an active mission in my Mission Journal. Though it's nice to see a new mission, for once. In Eve Online, that is a Lv4 Mission.

Mission seriously kicked my arse.

Did the mission four times with my main character (Tengu HML fit), each time making sure to come back to each pocket a few times until I was pretty sure I had killed every possible respawn (which do seem pretty random).

Net result : 48m in bounties each time.

And I definitely found ships from all 4 factions each time, no Sanshas though, ever.

Why don't you just bookmark a wreck in each pocket, finish the mission, turn the mission in and then go to salvaging with your noctis? Should save you a lot of trouble...

Had this the other day for first time. Was a mix of core, corpus, and pith. Lots of battleships, good bounties, good loot, max LP payout. Soloed it in my lolfit dominix by unleashing OGREGEDDON and CURATOROK on everything.

ONLY the first gate is locked. I completed the mission in 307 seconds yesterday. I had the key from the first time I completed it.

I did not even make it to the 4th room, I alpha'd her in 2 volleys in the third room on her way to the gate.

Great mission to rush. 15 mil in <6 minutes.

Be careful of spawns if you've got a salvage alt tagging behind.

Alpha scarlet in third room and she'll drop an implant.
