I think this mission has changed as i didn't even get the through the first spawn before the second arrived i ended up with 4 bcs shooting me as well as the frig all at once.

Two things:

1) This is not just an Amarr mission. I'm playing the Caldari version of the mission right now.
2) There is a bug in the initial spawn trigger. If you use drones to mine, the spawns will never happen. You MUST mine with a ship mounted module (like a mining laser) in order to trigger spawn 1. I went in with mining drones ONLY. After mining and waiting around for half an hour (I was doing other RL stuff too), I refitted with a mining laser. Used it on an asteroid, and voila! Spawn 1 appeared!

Two other things:

1) You can't go on the mission with a battlecruiser (gate restriction). I suggest a cruiser. With a destroyer is nearly impossible.
2) In order to complete the mission you need to MINE & KILL all the enemies.

A away to avoid getting swamped by all enemies at the same time. It has worked for me twice.

Warp in and fly to an asteroid far away from the gate entrance point, and start mining. When the first enemy shows warp out.
Warp in again. Enemies are far away enough to take them out from a distance - at least a couple of them before the have closed in on you.
Try to fight them far away from the gate entrance point in case you have to warp out and then go in again.

I'm running this from Minmatar Agent Olmel Nabeter.
Strip Miners work.
Only two waves, unless 2 and 3 were simultaneous. One of the bigger ships had a tracking disrupter.
My Cruiser handled this with no problems. Didn't bother with an aggro strategy, they all targeted me at once, wiped 'em out.
Stick around and mine, the rocks are huge.

FACTION BALANCING: A fellow University member, Athanor Ruthoern, tells me that she got three different standing losses with the Amarr Empire because of this mission, all for "Combat - Ship Kill" (I think it took her some time to finish the mission on her own):

-0.004%
-0.011%
-0.008%

It seems they fixed the drone mining thing, worked fine for me.
-- ZoltanLazar (2011-08-22 10:21:08)
yes, it can be mined with mining drones now, works well.
-- JogFi2002 (2012-06-03 22:56:05)
No Amarr standings loss for clearing all ships. Roids can be mined with mining drones. Enemies spawn on a timer (2-3 minutes) not on completion of mining 2000 scordite.
