Advice: You may have to warp out-in several times in order to finish this mission. In order to not trigger a re-spawn in each pocket just leave an NPC ship (preferable one with the lowest DPS) in each pocket and every time you warp-in just burn for the gate.


Ive tried this, it doesnt work. I assume this was a bug they fixed then?

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

I completed Dread Pirate Scarlet about 5 or 6 times last weekend and followed the DPS ship with a Noctis as I completed each pocket, so I am going to say I think they fixed the respawn problem/bug.

I remember losing a Noctis to this mission shortly after it came out and I have avoided loot and salvage in it till very recently.

Things that keep me up at night;  Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

I believe this has been fixed, yes.

The respawn used to happen every time for me back in the day, but in the last few months I've run this mission around 20 times and it hasn't happened once.

I've run this mission many times, and the only problematic respawns I recall were from about a year ago. I'd warp into first pocket, then if a corpmate came to join me before I finished the first pocket, the entire pocket would respawn. I never complained beause Dread Pirate has fairly good bounties and salvage :)

Thats weird, the eve survival thing says it was updated in march but they left that in there -.-

It has been fixed for a year or more now.

I was a sad bunnie when they fixed this, was the best mission ever...but it was also sad when they removed drone ore...Missions were much more fun a few years ago.

Used to be able to grab agro then launch drones and go afk. Now if you do that, they all die :(
