Just had my first run in with the Mordu's lot and thanks to the hints on here I went armed for bear. My Apoc's shield never went below 98%, I didn't launch one drone and I didn't need to fit a stab as the closest a rat got was 38k before going bang 
If you're interested, my setup for this one was:
High slots: 6x tachyon (standard fit with UV lens), 2x named heavy launchers
Med slots: Named MWD, 3x Cap recharger II
Low slots: Named Large Armour rep, 2x power diag II, 2x CPR, 2x energised adaptive nano membrane II.
Not my standard fitout by any means but it gave me the extra cap to stay at MWD plus keep the tachyons firing away with cap never going below 50%. |

I have run the Level 2 a half a dozen times now....I thought this was not too bad...somewhat challenging.....
Last...I found me a new Agent (Command Type)Level 3..never used one before...So I start running...4th mission in Mordus.
In a Rupture...sure...what the worst that can happen..my ship blows up...so, what  I will build a new if need be
I get into the first wave...OMFG...it is the best and worse mission I have ever done....Very challenging...Very Fun...and
for a Cruiser, can be very painfull on your wallet...if you don't have a safe spot..especially when the waves warp in...
Thumbs UP to CCP on this one....best mission in the game...(good loot too )

I ahve done this mission about 5 or 6 times. NEVER been webbed or scrambled, even when I let the bounty hunter stay alive long enough to get close.
I have done the mission in:
short ranged apoc with small lasers,
very loong ranged apoc with mega pulses,
long range thron with 350mm's
up your nose Taranis with blasters. By far the most interresting way but still no challenge, as it's just orbit target a @ 500m, then switch to B etc etc etc.
Never been in a pinch with either setup, and frankly I find it boring as the rest of the lot.
Bring back Zor and the rest of the 7 in ONE mission.

It *****s me up to see all the people who are saying how hard that mission in Battleship and that it is impossible in the cruiser. Any mission with this number of enemies can be done easy at long range (as long there are no rat battleships). I did level 3 version of it 3 or 4 times already. First time, I got a bit of a rush because of reading this tread, so I took my Caracal thinking that it will be easier to blow intercepter with missles and it would allow me to stay farther away, plus my missle skills are high. Did it easy, had time to collect loot even and make the bonus mark. Then I tried it in the Rupture cruiser (gunnery skills are around 3-4), still peace of cake. Only issue was that it took a bit longer this time and I had to go back to station to report to my agent before looting cans.
A little mission walkthrough for Rupture:
warpin at 60k and aproach to Wingman or Bounty Hunter (whatever name of intecepter is). Once in range (51k for me), target lock him, set keep range, wait till ship turns away from him and start shooting. He accelerates towards you. Let him to get into your optimal shooting range (+5k) and hit MWD (Rupture can outrun it with MWD, so no need to run it constantly, just maintain the distance, keep range will alter your course properly). Couple minutes of chase and fight is over, rest of the ships are not much faster then regular rats and can be easlily kept at range without overtaxing capacitor. Just stay away from them (44k or so) and lob heavy missles and shoot nuclear or lead ammo from 720s. Mission done.
PS. I always have webber on my ship for short range fighting to conter bad tracking of 720s and I was sure I will need to use it in this mission, but I did not even need to. Strangely enough, havok missles could catch intercepter and of cause my guns also did :)

Funny to read people experience with this mission.
Though we must conclude it's become a rather easy mission with the change.
What I don't get is how somebody can brag about killing rats from 60+ km away, any fool can do that. No, the cool people try to minimise the distance to all rats most as possible so they don't have to spend 20-30 min collecting loot.

did it today...took me a while from 50km out but i did it no probs....found the lvl 3 blockade harder tbh. (Moa btw)
as long as you take out the bounty hunters first then get ure arse in gear and keep out of their heavy missile range u'll be fine. my kits far from pectacular (3 250mm scouts - tungsten, 2 malk heavy launchers 1 learge tech 2 shield booster, 1 10mn mwd, 2 cap jobbies and 4 power control things.
it will hurt if they get too close, but the aim of th game is to not let em :)

Also did it before DT today. If it would've took 2 minutes more I would've missed the time bonus. Good loot, plus nice reward when counting in bountys. I kept them all the time further than 20km and kept shooting missiles from my caracal. Shields were never below 30 % even I had MWD.
Yup, when I took blockade mission in my BS I had to retreat for a while to recharge shields. Although I did not dare to try mordu on that because it wasn't insured.
In general lvl 3 missions gives some challenge and that's good.
forgive our sins that we are about to commit |

Done this mission again recently, and I must admit... it's not as good as the first time around.
Now it just takes ages...
Not really difficult at all anymore.
/emote goes off into a corner and sulks.
Ah well... get over it.
Interesting times await... |

Some people say there was a Mordu's Raid leader in the last wave.
I only ever get the Leopard + other cruiser, has anyone had this mission with the Raid Leader in the last 3-5 days?
Maybe it's like the Gone Berserk mission where you have the chance for the 550k npc but only rarely get him. |
