Worlds Collide

3:47pm 2007 Saturday 30th June 2007 In the last stage against angels, if you approach the heron wreck more and more of the rats agress you, originally I stayed put killed a bs and had to warp out but the second time I was killing the second bs of the ones that engage you originally while moving towards the wreck, after a tad almost all agressed me and I got scrambled. I did not have drones out.

Its not worth it now methinks without a cnr gist c-type xl fit, the mission, it takes too long to slowboat around, the original stage is bugged so you can't even use your drones when everything is flashing red because they re-agress your drones and yet you have to clear every rat in the first stage. There are no faction spawns anymore either and the last stage aggro is very tricky. Overall its a pretty buggy, awkward mess, I enjoy difficult like the blockade, but this is just awkward.

5:54pm 2007 Friday 29th June 2007 this mission has been changed in revelations II, all gates are now locked until you kill all baddies. Also watch your drones on all pockets, they draw agro easily.

at the time of writing there's a bug which means you have to kill both the angel and sansha spawns at the first 2 gates to unlock either gate (even though the local message says otherwise). Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Once through the Angel gate the spawn has been nerfed but it's still dangerous if you do the wrong thing. Tips:

- Tank up primarily on explosive, secondary kinetic.
- There's 2 scrambling frigs (gistii oulaw and one of the gistii thugs). None of the BS scrambled me (unlike pre-patch).
- Make your way out of 15km range of the sentries and they stop firing.
- Agro the group north of you as you warp in, make sure you don't agro either of the other 2 groups by mistake or you'll have a v tough time.
- Take some light and heavy drones both of the explosive variety, angels are the only npc where it's worth switching from the thermal drones. Obviously use the lights on the frigs, they kill much faster than heavies do.

The last pocket is the same as before, approach the heron and only attack the npc that attack you, grab the crew and job done. The other NPC are optional kills.

--

1st stage

both spawns can be done separately . Dont get near the other spawn while
fighting the agroing (left) one to make things easy.

2nd stage
only did the "Gate To The Sansha Base"

as posted before, do NOT shoot the sansha Spys
You need to tank 5 BS with good DPS - having not full skills yet I needed to warp off. I were not scrambled but double-webified.
One BS keeps at 17-19km range the others orbit at fourty-something
I nos'ed that one to keep cap (need to get the cap +5% skill to 5 soon)

5 BS down ? Good.

Now I did something quite lame.. but wasn't sure if my tank would keep up so I warped off and refitted with a single overdrive and AB that gives around 85 m/s under one webber of the spies. (Funny the second time I did this they failed to web at all)

I jogged..err.. crawled.. to torpedo/targeting max distance and engaged the 2nd spawn.

Then i finally killed those DAMNED spies with drones (something shot at the scout drones while outside.. from very far away, get them back in fast after doing the dirty work)

Eventuelly Killed the last spawn. Phew. REALLY NEED ADVICE
how to tank the initial agroing Group without spending 400M on some Gist B X-L ...

Okay.. now the fun part.. in the last room there are angel cartel ships.

I must admit I were absent-mindedly using the sansha fitting first *cough*

The BS and Cruisers of the intial agro group are "Arch" models. Tough shield-tanking.

Someone wrote "do not move" or it would trigger stage agro.
->Warping out does not.

Back with explo tank and bane torps I took down the 2 BS and 3-4 Cruisers - they are bastards with lowest ~72% tank at explo, took longer than the BS to take them out for me (only 1 bcs t2 at that time - my usual cap problem so I had to put in a relay module)

After killing the initial agro spawn the journal tells the work is done.
I approached the Container without problems, got the crew and
went to.. torp max range of course. Pick one of the BS and fire at will, politely, not the rest of the stage agroes with your target, only its support-group ( you can not tell them apart they lurk at the accel-gate in a furball).
