In pocket 2
5x Cruisers (Corelum Chief Watchman/Patroller)
had 3x Corelum Cheif Watchman who used damps

In Pocket 1: Approximately 2,000,000 Veldspar

Gate to pocket 2 is 60km from warp-in point. Take an AB!

Easily done in my armor tanked Hurricane. Aggro'd the entire second room and never dropped below 90-95% armor. Thermal damage works well.
-- MattZ (2009-12-11 13:28:23)
Second room didn't even get past my shields on an armor tanked Myrmidon.
-- ReBastiat (2010-01-14 08:24:15)
2nd room got past my shields on my droneboat myrm but that's because I aggroed all three groups at once and didn't bother kiting them. A fairly easy mission, no significant loot, but good payout.
-- PlanetaryGenocide (2010-02-10 19:08:09)
completed the mission in my Ishkur, never reached armor even though my ships an armor tank.

first room: nobrainer

second room : approach group 2 about 40km and attack a frig from the 1st group you'll get massive aggro from second group, return your drones and head ( best you alligned in the first place ) away from all groups, second group will follow including the transports, finish them 1 by 1 with your drones by keeping a distance of 30km+ destroy the transports and its done

Myrmidon can tank the entire pocket(s)/afk drone mission if needed.
-- ZepH (2010-06-15 02:41:44)
Made in MyrMidon also, drones made everything.
-- MarcusDeadgray (2010-07-27 19:14:29)
Easily and quickly completed in T2 fitted and rigged Artillery/Missile Hurricane - Passive shield with active hardener. T2 Drones and FoF Heavy Missiles worked great when target lock was lost due to EWAR damp from NPC's.
-- DeMichaelCrimson (2010-08-29 06:29:45)
The missions says it has special ship restrictions, but the types that aren't allowed (compared to normal) are:

Capital Industrial Ship
Jump Freighter
Prototype Exploration Ship

In other words, nothing to worry about.

Pocket 2 note says shooting Group 1 first does not aggro 2 or 3, but the instant I shot Group 1 all of Group 2 aggro'd me.
-- WolfgerSilberbaer (2012-02-22 05:45:08)
In both areas all Structures HAVE NO LOOT.
-- RolSon (2013-08-22 13:40:04)
T2 passive drake, just sat at warp-in and picked them off as they came in. did get damped, but never lost target lock. did not see any drone aggro until area 2. I popped the transports and the drone aggro stopped.
-- CinTek (2014-01-10 13:10:26)
Gate to Pocket 2 is open
