Safe to tanked AFK mine after clearing. 1-2 low level rats will harass you but are easily tanked. Remember not to turn in mission.
Pocket 1
The gate lands you right in the middle of a defensive square structure with sentries & ships on each corner @ 5 to 16km with a 15 second-ish delay before being aggro'd.Single group
4x Sentries (Blood Raider)4-5x Destroyers (Corpior Cleric/Converter/Devoter/Friar/Templar/Visionary)
2-3x Battlecruisers (Corpior Bishop/Shade/Blood Raider Slavers)
Note that sentries have 250km range though and will still hit you at 100km. This should however be tankable long enough to pick off the ships as they come toward you.
Structures
Walls & Elevators do not have loot.Sentry Guns drop Medium Frequency Crystals.
Blitz
In the last pocket you only have to kill the Slavers this completes the mission and you can warp out. Other kills are optional.Isk

Part 2 of 2 http://youtu.be/yb-A1vnkHocCategoryMissions
CategoryLevel3
An ECCM module was used to counter weapons disruption along with a sensor backup array.
In part 2 of 2, taking out the sentries first prevented the remaining enemies from getting past my battlecruiser shields.
Also, the blitz for 1 of 2 is to kill the slave pen, loot, and go home.
One of the small frigs can warp scram.
Completed in a completely overtanked passive shield Ishtar with absolutely no challenge.
also confirming that the enemies are bloodraiders.
If anyone experiences the same: if i complete the mission, part2 is renamed to "Downing the slaves", wich is listed here as level4 mission. in fact it seems to be level3 though.
Completed in T2 fit Hurricane - Passive Shield tank, active Hardeners, AB, Gyrostabilizer, Artillery/Heavy Missile
I clicked 'Keep Range' from nearest sentry tower with AfterBurner on and shot far ships first. Shield held at 1/3rd down
done this one very often.
simply clean the first room, mine the ore, but leave the 2nd room. the mission will be reseted every day after the daily downtime until its not flaged "complete"!
every day fresh omber, but first a few fresh enemies to kill in the first room :)
secound room is easy done with any t2 or well fitted battlecruiser. i prefer a t2
rail-ferox.
a note to beginners. in room 2. after warp-in, quicky fly vertical up- or downward away.
and kill the sentries first, at 2nd the destroyers, at last the battlecruisers.
and use your drones after getting stage agro!
secound note to you beginners: dont try in the 2nd room your new battleship :) !
The final pocket of 2/2 wasn't so bad. Passive drake got down to 25% shields despite forgetting to fit an EM hardener.
As always I killed everything and went back to base leaving the slaves behind. When I went back and destroyed the slave pens, the BC appeared instantly.
