I like a version of this mission but with Serpentis rats---the Serpentis are masters of high speed, close range fighting with blasters, and they're better at it than the Mordu. The mission should be made available to all factions and not just Gallente.
Actually it would be nice to have variations of this mission each with Angels, Sansha, Bloods, and Guristas as well.

You can do it in a Rifter if you've got good gun skills and missile skills, i use tech II 150's atm, with a gyro 2 and 2 arbalests. Also i change my ammo depending on mission, this one i use bloodclaws and emp S. I'm a wuss tho, i pull the bounty hunter away from the pack and kill him single before i continue with everything else =(
It's prolly cos i suck, but i find the mercenary mission with the wingman harder, largely cos my 'pull the webbing pain away from his friends' tactic don't seem to work. Guessing he don't use a mwd like the mordus guy or he's just smarter.

Got my new Moa, first lvl 3 mission, Mordus.
I thought, ok, lets try it. After my 3rd warp in I had a little lag and got killed. I admit I had no training using a cruiser before and my gunneryskills are laughable so I don't complain (also only light missiles at that point). Was a nice experience, even if a little expensive.
Now I know I have to decline this mission, but I still do some of the other lvl 3 missions in my merlin because it is faster than the Moa.
Maybe I will get me a Caracal after I'm finally able to use MWDs and try it that way.

Just got this mission for the first time tonight, after reading various things about it I was a bit excited about the prospect of "something different" to say the least.
I flew it in my shield tanked Scorp/short range setup (alas the only BS I have) and had no problems, although the 110K + guys did take forever to die.
Very proud of myself I warped back to the station to report my success and pickup my Loot Mobile, completely forgetting to bookmark where the battle took place.
soo... what cool loot did I miss? :p :)
[ 2004.06.30 22:51:01 ] Your Mega Pulse Laser I places an excellent hit on Mordus Bounty Hunter, inflicting 11.9 damage. |

It can be easily completed with a MOA. You do need heavy missiles though. My setup is 4 250mm railguns and 2 heavy launchers. A mwd to keep you at 30km+ and use iridium ammo (or other midrange ammo) In the first wave kill the bounty hunter first (he can warp jam), and make sure you are at least 25-30km away of the last mob of each wave before you kill him (next spawn will be at the place he's killed, and you don't want a spawn on top of you  )

yes, maybe i will accept it the next time, my missile and gunnery-skills now total more than 100K Points.
But i still have to get me the MWD skill, maybe in the end of novemeber. Without that i will have to warp out repeatedly, as with the Blackade mission where i have to warp out because the last wave is on top of me.
I'm pretty sure it is doable in a Moa, but not with no skills regarding fighting.

I just got this mission and the enemy all went straight for my drones (i fly a dominix, can operate 13 drones) this was good and bad... I managed to withstand their onslaught but lost about 20 drones in toatal (a mix of med and heavy) before i decided to get out.
Unfortuantly this mission was made worse for me because it spawned 100km from a roid field which was full of 0.4sec blood raiders... who naturally wanted to join in (on the mordu's side of course).
Luckily I managed to warp out and am now going to restock my drones to finish them off.... but heck that was harder than I am used to.
I roleplay... there is this computer game called "Earth - The First Genesis" where i play a character in the early 21st century. |

My agent wants me dead, he keeps sending me out to kill those Mordus folks. The first time I did this mission (a few posts back) I got a big nasty Mordus Monster on the end (bounty around 600k) but I havent seen that one anymore.
Without the big guy on the end I can handle it in a Rifter (yep, that's a frigate). The only real hard part is the bounty hunter not only because he can scramble you but also because of his velocity (~1400m/s) which means that most missiles don't hit him. I've got two solutions for it:
1. Scramble him
This is the simple approach. Just do a quick orbit at 10km, scramble and orbit > 15km. Problem is ofcourse he tries to scramble you to and 5 seconds at less then 1000m/s in a Rifter will turn you into stardust.
2. Make him dizzy
Orbit him at 15km, fire off some sabretooth and wait until they are close to the bounty hunter. Do a quick orbit at 10km and orbit out at ~20km before he can webify you. This will make him drop speed for 3 secs which is enough to make your missiles hit their target.
Oh, and don't try the above without an 10mn AB in your frigate.

He isnĘt quite that fast. When I hit the MWD I go 1332 and thatĘs enough to leave him behind pretty quickly.
The easiest way to handle him is to let him come to you, which he quickly will, and which conveniently puts distance between you and rest of the pack to give you ample time to kill him. Just warp in at 60k. ItĘs like fishing ... dangle the bait (you) and when he bites kite him around while you kill him. You just cannot pull him too far out, or he will turn back.

Ok... What were u thinkin having 250mm's on a Dom and where the hell were ur drones! I used to do missions on my dom just fittin 5-6 Heavy Pulse lasers with multy's and having a armor tank( u should know Mordus and Guristas do Kinetic and Thermal damage) and i used all this and my drones and did those spawn missions easily just warpin in at 15km... So this is just ur skills or ur head :/ not ur ship at least.

One thing to note if you're running the mission (constantly!) in a small ship with limited long range capabilities: It is very easy to lead the interceptors away from the main furball. I usually warp in and immediately start an orbit at 20K from the nearest inty, lock it and take a shot at it to get him and any other inty's to come after me. Then, switch to keep at range and lead it away. The Cheetahs may try to keep up, but it only takes a minute or two to get the intys over 100K from the pack so they can be dealt with.
If you're in a small fast ship and one of the last rats is the Raid Leader, attack him first! He's one of the few big rats I've had that can land a whole salvo of gunfire on me from 10K or so when I was at full speed. Trust me, it hurts like hell!

Been doing the level 3 Mordu's in a tanked Ishtar recently.
That works a treat.
With energised armour plating i only need a small armour repair II to tank the damage.
The biggest problem is the Katanas in the first wave chewing through my drones. But hey, with 4000 drone bay i can just throw out a few more :)
