Mission briefing

A large convoy was spotted in a nearby system, apparently en route straight through Saila. This is a perfect chance for you to show us what you're worth. This convoy comes with a large escort, so you better go out there prepared. I want you to intercept the convoy after it makes the jump into Saila; Destroy the ships if they don't surrender their goods, and bring anything you can salvage back to me. I'll split the loot. Sounds fair eh?

Overview and Objectives

The following objectives must be completed to finish the mission:
item = ten units of Holoreels (5.0m3)

Objective
Destroy the convoy and return with the cargo to me. Be carefull it will be guarded. :

[medecau]

this mission is incorrect in the main list and should be corrected before someone gets hurt.
I believe CEUOTC posted the correct amount of ships.

i am using a raven:
6xCuise launcher with EM ammo
3xPhoton Scatering + 3xheat dissipation + Extra-Large Shield Booster
3xBallistic Control System
the rest of the slots fitted with NOS+CPU+Beta Reactor Control Unit but could be fitted otherwise has i dont need these

[BarmaLINI]

updated / BUT:
- this is deadspace?
- second group is wave or deadspace in another room?
- all ships in one group in both steps?

many questions .......

Yeah its deadspace. second group is in another room, all ships are in 1 group in the first step, except 8 frigs. Second step is the same.1 big group and a group with 8-10 frigs.

I had nearly the same as posted above, not exactly tho
3 chorpus archons, not 2
2 chorpus prophets, not 3
and a few different cruisers, corpior seer and so on...

[clumsybiker]

I'm a little confused:

Every BloodRaider ship listed has lower EM resistances than Thermal, yet Thermal damage is advised.

What am I missing? Also it seems unlikely that every ship has exactly the same resistances on its armour as on its shield. A lot of ships have higher EM resistance on the armour - that would explain why thermal is the better option, but it would also indicate that *either* the damage type, or the resistances, are shown wrong on this mission ?

cheers,
clumsy.

Really easy mission if you can keep up in range.
I use a Raven, my max speed is 158m/s and I don’t even use it at max. Some times I don’t even get a hit from the raiders. The tricky part is to move all the time. With that everything is simple even with full aggro.

I just did this one solo in a Drake. 7x heavies (thunderbolts) and 5x T1 light drones.

Stay outside 40km.... at that range they cannot do any damage. And they aren't fast enough to catch you before you can kill them. (As long as CCP keeps the MWD's for the NPC's in deadspace off)

Caracal, with it's longer range would be fun to try on this one. A (long ranged) HAC would have an easy time too.

(When you are taking 0 DPS it is very easy to tank)

There was no aggroe on either warp-in. They waited until I fired.... all aggroe except for the large group of frigates.... they aggro when you get too close to them and fire.

[tuea]

a mission i like for the dominix, 2x therm & 2x EM hardners + 2x LAR. Set it all running, agro the room, unleash the drones and go and make a cup o' tea.

Isk wise there's ~7m in bounties + another ~13m for salvage and loot

total income ~23m

[Brainspacer]

This is the name of the mission I recvd. This is the type of mission structure it had. However, the mission I got was with Serpentis enemy. 1 group before the gate and 3 groups in the second area. Apply kin damage and all is well.
