I noticed an event agent in Nonni III Moon 1 - Kalliakiota Corporation - I foolishly spoke to them and got offered a kill mission - 29 jumps away in 0.0, against drones. I have kill everything and then pickup 200m^3 of cargo before returning to hi-sec for a reward of a 1million isk implant and 4million isk bonus if I can do it in under 3 hours.

The mission is part 1 of a 2 part mission series. I'm really curious as to what part 2 is.

Has anyone got any information on this, I don't think there's any hope for me even trying this so I'll politely decline. I see some unpublished Eve DB entries for the agent's ship - an 'Obsidian' a variant of the Moa.

Who needs an encyclopedia with this kind of response.
Amy, I'm pretty sure most Eve players have never run this mission, anyone with the connections to head to Raiden space and run a mission wouldn't be swayed by the rather meager reward.

What's the name of the mission? Might be listed in Eve survival or the Evelopedia.

The Mission is 'Wacky AI (1 of 2)' - I'm pretty well versed in all the eve information sites, this is the first time I've found a mission that isn't referenced anywhere. There is an editor's sandbox page on one of the wikis that contains a mention of the mission, but nothing more than that. Certainly no details on part 2. I'm wondering whether this agent is even in the right place, I get the feeling that this should be an agent in space down in the constellation in Tenal

Here's the MIssion text:

Mission briefing
Ok, just promise you won't laugh. You see, before I came here I was a computer programmer. I specialized in creating and maintaining artificial intelligence for Kaalakiota, probes and drones and that sort of stuff. Well after I got here, I realized I needed some heavy duty protection considering the relative lawlessness of this place, and the mercs here were just way too expensive.

So I used my expertise to set up a self-maintaining drone facility, which provided me with enough backup to safely harvest the gas fields around here. It worked like a charm to begin with ... until hardware failure wiped out the secret password I've been using to access the mother-drone computer's mainframe.

Now I can't even get into my own home! I've been sitting around here for days but none of these good-for-nothing mercs have the guts to face my drones. Maybe you've got it in you?

Anyway first I want my stash of extracted gas chemicals. You'll find a few containers full of it in my storage facility. I'll give you the coordinates, all you have to do is warp there, take out the drones guarding the stash, loot it, and bring it back here.

More info:
The mission is has acceleration gates and drops you right on top of a whole pile of drones. There are 2 scramming drones that you should kill right away. There are 9 Battleship class drones (5 Swarm Preserver Alvus, 4 Alvus Controller), a bunch of cruisers and frigates, and a lot of very fragile Kamikaze drones that damage your ship when you kill them:

'The Drone Kamakazi explodes, sending spurts of energy and debris in all directions. This was not a freak explosion, but a well prepared trap by the Drone Mother. Your ship takes damage!'

The battleships like to sit right on top of you dealing tough damage, but, if you can get rang on them it's a lot easier to survive. I did this on a mid skilled alt using a drake I had sitting around - no t2 modules (except BCS).

When you approach the can another wave spawns - 4 BS, 3 Cruisers and about a dozen sentry guns. I made the mistake of doing this before I'd killed all the drones (I had 2 BS left)

'Someone has ventured close to the storage bin. As a result, rogue drones who had been dormant nearby rush into the area when the alarm is triggered. Hidden sentry guns come into view and arm their weapons. It's a trap!'

T3 cruisers will have no problem, although you might want to bring a friend

I got a 2.65 Corp standing gain from part 1 - part 2 is:

Wacky AI (2 of 2)

Yes, that is correct. I need you to clean up the mess I left behind, before things spiral out of control. I don't want to have any civilian deaths on my hands. To do this, the drone mother-computer must be taken care of. It is located near the place I just sent you. I have opened the acceleration gate leading into an adjacent deadspace pocket, which is where you'll find the target. Destroy it and return to me.

Wacky AI (2 of 2) Objectives
The following objectives must be completed to finish the mission:

Objective
Take out the Drone Creation Compound within the Drone Complex. Report back to Erakki Kihuo in the Pioneer's Sanctuary once the objective has been completed.

Location −0,2 ZJ-QOO (Low Sec Warning!)
This site contains special ship restrictions.

Rewards
The following rewards will be yours if you complete this mission: 1 x Caldari Navy Magnetic Scattering Amplifier

Bonus Rewards
The following rewards will be awarded to you as a bonus if you complete the mission within 3 hours 10.500.000,00 ISK


So, same system - this agent really should be out in Tenal - should probably be bug reported.

Yes, with the mention of harvestable gas clouds this sounds like a zero sec COSMOS agent. But of course, bugs for those have been going on for years without any action being taken.

Now THAT is a very good question. Wait a bit while I write a ten pages essay on the topic.

a few patches ago, I saw a glitch where some agents that should be in space, you could talk to them (and take missions from) when docked in their corporation's HQ station.

if Nonni III - moon 1, is Kaalakiota's listed HQ station, then it looks like it's the same glitch, for some reason. Weird.

best to bugreport it.

Just the facts.

Well since the mission isn't documented - here's part 2

Again it's a gated complex, first pocket has 5 BS, 6 Cruiser and 4 Frigate Drones, one of which is a scramming drone.

Second complex has a bunch of Cruisers, sentry guns and a 'Drone Creation Compound', shooting thie compound causes it to spawn many more cruisers when you hit structure.

'The Drone Mother has launched Kamikaze Drones from the Drone Creation Compound to defend itself! More drones have also joined the fray.'

After you shoot it some more (50% structure?) we get another spawn - 5 BS, 6 Cruiser and 4 Frigate with scrams. There's an Elite Drone parasite which switched targeting to my drones.

'Drones from other pockets of the deadspace complex have warped into the room to defend the Drone Mother!'

When you kill the cruisers in that wave you get a spawn of 5 frigates with a couple of scramming frigates in the wave
These are kamikazi drones and when killed they damage my ship and my drones. ( I lost my drones this way)

'The Drone Kamakazi explodes, sending spurts of energy and debris in all directions. This was not a freak explosion, but a well prepared trap by the Drone Mother. Your ship takes damage!'

As the last one explodes you get a 3 more scramming frigates spawning. Killing these has no nasty surprises.

No more spawns from shooting the Drone Creation Compound, but you do get this message:

'The Drone Compound starts spewing out clouds of radioactive gas once it's hull starts to disintegrate.'

When destroyed the drone creation compound drops a can, containing drone goo, an implant (ZML1000) and a Neurotoxin recovery skillbook. No other structures dropped cans. The mission is probably worth about 150million isk in terms of loot. But if it's not friendly space you're not doing it, and 29 jumps is a long way to go.
