STEP 1
SPAWN 1
-1x Kayzum Mother Drone - Battleship
This is an exceptionally strong BS drone. 0.0 drone region ratters, beware. She deals more damage than three 0.0 BS drones together. (approx 180 damage per second to an 80/55/68/35% EM/EX/KI/TH armor tank.) The Mother Drone does not repair shields nor armor (aside from natural shield regeneration), so it makes for a rather fair and straightforward "boss fight".
The next spawns appear when the Mother Drone goes below a certain amount of health:
SPAWN 2 (80% Armor)
-1x Silverfish Alvi - Frigate
-2x Wrecker Alvi - Frigate
-1x Defeater Alvi - Frigate
-1x Bomber Alvi - Frigate
-1x Hunter Alvi - Frigate
Done in an armor tanked Dominix. Wear a double explosive hardener! Should be much easier in a T2 cruiser-sized ship. Suggestion for T1 pilots: Bring a friend along so that the aggro will split between the two of you. Carry a set of appropriate equipment (repair drones, shield transporter etc.) that will allow you to turn whoever draws the aggo from the Drone Mother, into a permatank. Solo pilots, warp out as necessary and destroy any and all present rogue drones before attacking the mother.
Personal account: Doesn't help that the mother drone's at the far end of the pocket!... Warped out twice due to poor tank on my ship. Mission took me an hour and a half. I assume a good tank, able to take in the whole mission without warping, should be able to make it in less than 45 minutes.
if it hasnt been said yet. to sprint this mission just kill the structures (both of them) first then kill mother drone.
if structures are down nothing will spawn and you move on to 2nd stage.
you miss out on the minerals though.
after "blizzing" the missing twice i just did it the hard way for the first time (domi). had to warp out and refit to explosive hardeners. very annoying. the mother drone hits like hell.. no matter what you harden against.

I fly a standard Mission-configured Drake (7xHML II, 2xLSE II, 2xBCS II, 2xSPR II, and 3 Purger Rigs)
This leaves me with 4 slots for resistance balancing.
For these missions I used 2xInvul II, 1xExp RA II, and 1xEM RA II.
With this setup, you should never get below 85-90% shields, and you can maintain the CAP regen and the shield regen (permatank) this.
I just read in one of the above posts that the triggers are armor: 20/40/60/80% - Is it possible that there is a random variable added in here, since I felt that I only had two large spawns, rather than 4 small spawns, so perhaps two spawns were closer to each other than 20% armor?
This mission is easy peasy, and rewards not only 1 mill + 1 mill in fee+bonus, but also all 8 types of minerals, when the compounds are refined (yes, I had 22 Morphite, 64 Megacytes, 144 Zydrines... after these two missions)
The Salvage components are very nice too, I ended up with 3 Trit Alloy Bars, 2 Armor Plates, and a few other goodies (among the 180+ salvaged items)
