Mission type: Encounter
Space type: Deadspace
Damage dealt: EM, Therm
Web/Scramble: Spider Drones (web only)
Extras: NA
Recommended damage dealing: EM (best), Therm (secondary)
Recommended ship classes: Battleship, Command Ship, HAC, Strategic Cruiser
Note: This mission can take longer than usual as you may need to travel 50-60km to retrieve the dropped Special Delivery box mission objective.
Fitting an afterburner into a slow battleship is highly recommended.
Single Pocket:
Auto-aggro from Single Group at warp-in.
Single Group (Auto-Aggro): (50-75km)
2x Spider Drones II4x Sansha's Sentry Gun (Tower Sentry III)
2x Battleships (Centus Tyrant)
Tip
- Mission is flagged completed after you have killed both battleships.
- Don't forget to loot the dropped container for the Special Delivery box mission objective.
Blitz:
- Warp in, kill both battleships, loot the can, and warp out
- You might have to kill the spider drones in order to move
- If you're webbed (too lazy to shoot Spider Drones/drive a slow Battleship) drop Mobile Tractor Unit and wait for it to pull containers, loot, scoop and warp out.
Structures
- Breeding Facility drops random NPC trade goods / passengers
Asteroids
- 7 Omber 'roids of 25,000 units each, for a total of 175,000 units.
- 6 Veldspar 'roids of 90,000 units each, for a total of 540,000 units.
- 6 Scordite 'roids of 50,000 units each, for a total of 300,000 units.
But they are all too scattered around, being very difficult to mine two at the same time.

But Still Able To Tank It
Seems the Ishtar is not the most popular L IV ship but I know I use it for almost every mission I do including this one and it works fine.
Dual-armor rep with a AB cap stable. Best set-up for missioning Ishtar. ;)
