Lv3's...NPC listings

[Scythes]

The # of NPC's listed for some of the lvl 3's has been different for me. I am a newer player running off a quality -17 agent. Some of the missions that list 10 frigates there are only 5, while some that list 5 have 8-10. Should I report these or do the specific amounts vary? Also, should add to tips on Intercept the Saboteurs(Guristas) that many of the frigates will warp scramble so kill those first. Great site.

Hi Scythes,

most missions vary a 'little bit' with the spawns. Sometimes they're easy, sometimes quite tough. Maybe a hint for that can be added to the mission description, but you can't collect all variations of a mission.

I noticed that mostly in the L4 mission 'Sabotage the Supply Line', against Mercs and Sanshas. While the description showed some cruisers, I was pinned on the spot by 10 Interceptors (Sansha Berserkers and Demons) and 3x 880k BS. It took quite a while to take them down and luckily my tank did not break, even if the next spawns were similar. But the main thing is to know which kind of opponents you can expect, what kind and how much damage they do so you can fit your ship accordingly.

The mission database saved me quite some ships already, thanks to those who created the database and the hard working helpers who delivered the exact mission data.
