Master John2	Posted - 2005.02.03 10:54:00 - [1] Serp extravaganza Level 4, gate one not so bad 2 BS's and load a cruisers and frigs, bombarded at gate with shadow serps, exspected.. Gate 2, 7 Battaleships a good 25 cruisers and a load of ceptors, i was there all of 30 secs and i was already in hull, 33% was the amount i was left b4 i managed to warp out, i know u say level 4's are "team work" but i was armor tanking a megahron, and i couldnt belive my eyes when i warped in, let alone the HUGE amount of lag, i expected it to be hard, but not as hard as pirate exa level 4, if i could shot screen shots i would... i wanna know how it is pos for anyone to tank that, even if u are in a team, the first one through is the "taged one" so if they dont warp out they are going to die, so if someone can explain how i am ment to fight a dual Battleship and cruisers b4 i get out of warp, please tell me, it has got me gob smacked, i dont know how CCP expect anyone to do the mission, i dont even wanna think what is at the 3rd "last gate" an officer of course but not solo able
Thomdril Merrilin	Posted - 2005.02.03 11:47:00 - [2] Edited by: Thomdril Merrilin on 03/02/2005 11:47:30 I had this mission last night and it is insane! My tank can pretty much hold up to ANY lvl 4 mission but that one ran me dry and into armour before i could warp out. WTF is with having the ENTIRE spawn insta agro at close range?? (remember these are SERPENTIS = blasters) I recommend skipping this mission unless you are in a gang of at least 4/5 well setup BS'. edit - SP.
Minuz1	Posted - 2005.02.03 11:52:00 - [3] Any info on the spawns and your setups really help if you want info on this. Dmg types you are dealing/tanking and such. I've taken this mission 2-3x times without much difficulty in a raven with bleh named mods and torps. -Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat!!!!!
Falbala	Posted - 2005.02.03 12:07:00 - [4] Sorry, not directly related but I lost my dominix to a level 3 extravaganza today. Entirely my fault but I noticed some ships teleported on me (20 or 30km jump in like one second). With a MWD you can't go that fast.
Bad'Boy	Posted - 2005.02.03 12:11:00 - [5] never understood how can some1 loose BS to level 3 mission... B.A.D.B.O.Y.: Biomechanical Android Designed for Battle and Online Yelling "Bad Boys,Bad Boys, what you gonna do, what you gonna do when WE come for yoU"
Tavernier	Posted - 2005.02.03 12:16:00 - [6] MasterJohn2, The only way to do that mission is to have support ships... say 1 mega or apoc with very high resistances, 1 arma with 3 remote armor reps and all cap mods, and one raven to actually do the damage... Falbala, what you probably saw is lag, or space-distortions... I've run Zor's Damsel in Distress complex many times now... several ships aren't were they are supposed to be... (Overview and visual make the ship look like 20km away, but it's missiles are coming from somewhere else, multifrequency crystal (optimal range 20km) won't hit, but radio crystals (60km range) will hit perfectly...)
Tavernier	Posted - 2005.02.03 12:17:00 - [7] Originally by: Bad'Boy never understood how can some1 loose BS to level 3 mission... The pirate extravaganza level 3 can be quite surprisingly difficult for a less experienced pilot... but anyway... a domi isn't really a bs...
Falbala	Posted - 2005.02.03 12:35:00 - [8] I lost it because I warped too late, it is not a skill point problem lol. They teleported on me or it was a distorsion I don't know but the result was I couldn't hit them with my guns... Only the drones could and the drones killed one indeed but 2 were left and they got my ship when I was warping. If by losing a ship you meant losing any L3 battle just go and do this mission in a dominix then we talk again.. I had the warp away the first gate and made it to the third but lost the ship then. Second gate was fine because I could kill them from far away and the 3rd 2 of them teleported on me. I am not a great (and not even a good) fighter but I know the ranges of my guns and when to use them, if the npcs start jumping on my ship then yes I am in troubles, I think I will remove the guns to equip smartbombs now lol.

Akaviri	Posted - 2005.02.03 13:17:00 - [12] I did the Serpentis Extravaganza lvl 4 with a Scorpion and I had no problems. I actually thought it was one of the easier lvl 4 missions. Something must have been seriously wrong if you got down to hull in 30 seconds. Did they all aggro on you? Anyway, I'd petition this loss since you mention you had terrible lag and there is an armor repairer/hardener bug that has been causing lag lately.

Karol Kei	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:08:00 - [13] Edited by: Karol Kei on 03/02/2005 14:17:06 I tanked apoc with high: 4 mega beam 1s, heavy pulse, heavy nos and two cruise launchers. <- not nice damage output, but nos helps the tank. med: 4 cap recharger 2s low: 2 L acco repairers, 2* thermal and 2*kinetic hardeners and a cap relay. The tank seemed to be holding, as long as i had the nos pointed at something. I have good skills. I had to warp in a gankageddon to deal the damage, as it would have taken forever and ever. In the end it would not have been too hard, but I had -the worst- lag I have ever experienced in this game yesterday. I lost my very nicely kitted apoc to a relatively easy mission before this one, due to screen freezing for a minute. I miss my nice mods. :( I thought it would have been fixed on down time and accepted this mission - and spent the next several hours fighting lag on the three levels of this mission.

Thomdril Merrilin	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:12:00 - [15] Edited by: Thomdril Merrilin on 03/02/2005 14:13:06 Raven with Xl C5-L booster + amp, 3x hardeners and a cap recharger II. The ENTIRE spawn was on me and wtpwned my shields in seconds (could be a shield hardener bug?) but I had not yet aggressed the NPCs and ALL thats ALL of them were on me after coming out of warp. This was not done solo as I had a support ship with me boosting shields... so I dont know how this could be possible solo!!
Sable Moran	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:16:00 - [16] Originally by: Falbala If by losing a ship you meant losing any L3 battle just go and do this mission in a dominix then we talk again.. I had the warp away the first gate and made it to the third but lost the ship then. I've done that mission in a Domi. Very doable. Just aggro one group at a time and you're fine. Had to warp back to the station after the fourth stage, not because I had problems with the bad guys but because I needed to empty my cargo bay from all the loot (Yeah yeah I know, get an indy, ok maybe next time). Originally by: Falbala I am not a great (and not even a good) fighter but I know the ranges of my guns and when to use them, if the npcs start jumping on my ship then yes I am in troubles, I think I will remove the guns to equip smartbombs now lol. Here's my current NPC setup for my Domi. Food for thought maybe? Hi: 6 cruisers blasters Med: 1 AB or MWD 1 sensor booster 1 webber 2 cap recharger Low: Heavy armor tank, all seven slots filled with armorplates, resistance modules and repairers. And of cource dronebay filled with lots of killing power. My tactic is basically: I go in, I open fire, I kill stuff. ----- Sable's Ammo Shop at Alentene 5, Moon 4, Duvolle Laboratories Factory. Ammo at affordable prices.
Karol Kei	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:17:00 - [17] Originally by: MrRookie Heh nice. I guess you mean 2 thermal and 2 kinetic Ooopsies. Where's the edit button. :D
Falbala	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:31:00 - [18] Yes I didn't have the low slots well fitted, I don't pretend to be good at this. Anyway I haven't encountered any problem with my setup until this mission. When I was hunting Serpentis Smugglers in my first Imicus they had to travel to me to actually damage me, they didn't teleport right under my nose, and later in the Thorax and when I started hunting with the Dominix it was the same. Now things have changed so yes I will have to put more defenses I agree.
Istvaan Shogaatsu	Posted - 2005.02.03 14:36:00 - [19] As far as I heard, shooting the sentry guns is what gets them all to attack you at once. Deal with sentries after you've thinned the mobs out a little.
Novo DuPont	Posted - 2005.02.03 15:37:00 - [20] The NPC placement in that missions is definately screwed up for all the rooms. I also had a tanked Mega and lasted for about 2 minutes before I ran low on cap and had to warp out. BUT room 2 has no frigs ...just 6 COMMANDER and Eldar lvl BS's plus 25 eldar and several commander lvl cruisers. They were ALL at 10 km from the warp in point and all went aggro on warp in. I did this mission before and the NPC were spread out like they were suppose to, so something changed during patch. There is no way to solo room 2 and anyone who says they have and isnt running 2 of the 1200 HP shield boosters or 1200 HP armor reps and 80% resistance is out right blowing smoke. Even then I dont think cap whould last long enough to kill off all the BS's let alone the cruisers. CPP FIX THE NPC PLACEMENT PLEASE!!!!!!!! "To succeed greatly one must sacrifice greatly"
Akaviri	Posted - 2005.02.03 16:06:00 - [21] Originally by: Novo DuPont They were ALL at 10 km from the warp in point and all went aggro on warp in. Well, something is clearly borked. I don't understand why my serpentis extravaganza mission wasn't messed up. The npcs were in groups at various distances like they usually are and they didn't all aggro on me at once. Guess I was lucky. ````````````` _ \|\_ ````````````` \` oo\ ````````_____/ =__Y= `````` /` `````` ) `_``` / ` , ``` \/\_.(\_/) ((____\| `` )_--\ \_-`(x.x) `------'`------` `--` (> <) Kitty pwns Bunny!
nicmo	Posted - 2005.02.03 16:56:00 - [22] i had this mission yesterday, did lvl1 ok with my tanked raven (solo) and then i warped to lvl2 and there were like 3 BSs or more and a **** load of cruisers like 15km away and they all started locking (ho-ho warp out) i did while sending a voley to a cruiser, killed it and warp out. warp in again and there they were, they went thru my shield i like 40 secs :/ like it is now its not doable solo, noooo way :) btw what hardner damage types u guys using for this?

For Serpentis I use Kinetic and Thermal hardeners, but on the 3rd area of this mission there are two Centus Tyrants that do EM and Thermal damage, so I had to switch hardeners to take care of them. For now I'm going to avoid this mission. I hope they fix it. ````````````` _ \|\_ ````````````` \` oo\ ````````_____/ =__Y= `````` /` `````` ) `_``` / ` , ``` \/\_.(\_/) ((____\| `` )_--\ \_-`(x.x) `------'`------` `--` (> <) Kitty pwns Bunny!

Anyways I KNOW that the mission I did was a tough son of a ***** and NOT soloable.

D'Artagnan	Posted - 2005.02.05 11:20:00 - [28] I soloed this mission last night no real problem except at one point for no reason that i can think of 5 of the bs when agro on me. I just warped out and came back in and wasted the fools

ElCoCo	Posted - 2005.02.05 14:51:00 - [30] Did it solo in a raven..... You guys are doing something wrong for everyone to aggro on you.... do you scout in a shuttle or something first and all the rats are lured to the beacon? Only thing weird about that mission was that it had Sansha battleships

wappy	Posted - 2005.02.06 02:03:00 - [34] this is my domi setup for lvl3 missions have done most of the thougher ones without problems 6 heavy neutron blasters (cruiser sized guns) 1 mwd or ab, 4 cap recharger 1 1 L armor rep, 1 Med T2 armor rep, explosive, kinetic and thermal hardner, 2 CPR`s I ussually take on 2 groups at a time with this setup in deadspace and use berserker drones for heavy's and hammerheads for med drones control of more then 10 drones is a minimum to really do decent dmg use med drones on the inty's and frigs then switch for the heavy's for the cruisers you didnt kill yet with the blasters

McBane	Posted - 2005.02.06 20:20:00 - [39] Doing this solo right now - just moving to 3rd level. No rats have gone agro on me at warp in yet - which is just as well, be a bit dead if they had. I just put in some distance and chuck torps at um - pretty easy so far. (Famous last words!) Touch wood, clench lucky rabbits foot.
Ky Vatta	Posted - 2005.02.06 20:51:00 - [40] The problem with most of the Extravaganza missions, is that you nearly alway come thru the gate ON TOP of most of them: They get plenty of shots in, before you can even orientate yourself..... Corp Chief Engineer
Falbala	Posted - 2005.02.07 02:26:00 - [41] The problem was the agent looks into your hangar and sees what ship you have then tailors the mission accordingly... Now doing level 4 missions in a Vexor everything is going fine... I would die if they locked me but they are too busy trying to lock the drones...

Mitchman	Posted - 2005.02.07 08:46:00 - [43] Well, whatever you do, do not fire on the sentries and they will all argo you. I did the Guristas variant of this mission, and had around 25 battleships in total, with around 8 at each level. No more than 3 fired on me at any one time, so it was fairly easy (but a horrible time sink!).
Master John2	Posted - 2005.02.07 11:14:00 - [44] Well in my hanger i have... 2 megathrons 1 Raven 1 Enyo 1 Taranis 1 Destroyer 1 Battle cruiser So i dont think it can be about ships not really, or they give me some retarded missions i just seem to get all the dam hard ones, well thats what u get for using a lvl4 personal agent i guess, u do all the personal crap lol i have done the serp extrav but i didnt go at it alone, took 1 raven 1 megathron 1 domi, and a BC with multi warpouts... but there is a armor repairer bug out and CCP say they will fix in soon "3 weeks maybe" LOL
Zeromancer	Posted - 2005.02.08 17:27:00 - [45] Edited by: Zeromancer on 08/02/2005 17:26:54 Just did this mission without too much trouble. The trick is to keep calm as you warp in and see all the red crosses. Do not target anything and start shooting. Let them target you first as they do so in one group at the time, then you start taking out the group that targeted you first. The rest of the rats won't do anything to you. Then you proseed with one group at the time. Do not use drones as they can wander off to another group witch then will aggro on you.

Goshindo	Posted - 2005.02.09 11:17:00 - [47] I did this mission solo last night. It wasnt easy but it is doable. Start aligning for warp the instant you come out of warp. Target the frigs, kill as many ships as you can then warp out. Rinse and repeat. It did take me about 6 hours to do this and countless warps, but roughly 20 mil in bounty. third stage is just as bad as second tbo. another 5 or 6 BS there. CCP should remove the big arse ROCK right in fron of the beacon when you warp in on stage 2. your basically trapped between a rock and a ton of very very agressive BS's. Ive got caps if anyone wants to see them, however the current view isnt large enough to show all the ships that are there :) Also the 3rd stage has 4 - 1.75m mega, 1 - 2.5 m, and 1 or 2 - 500k dom. in the third stage all you really have to do is kill the Serp leader and mission is complete, however i decided to make them pay for all my time and ammo. Raven 6 4100 launchers 2 Modal Neutron Blasters 2 thermal 1 kin hardner XL C5L 2 Cap recharge 2's 5 PDU 2's
MrBadidea	Posted - 2005.02.10 00:05:00 - [48] I lost my Ferox to a level 3 Guristas Extravaganza last night.... ....first Pirate Extravaganza mission, and I'm expecting it to be hard, so I break out the shield hardeners for the first time, and recruit some help from local. Warp in, start working on the first few cruisers... and EVE locked up for the first time on me, taking my computer with it... I was hoping and praying that I had just escaped with hull, but alas, when I finally managed to log back I was staring at an EGG :\|

So one could petition if they loose ship to a server crash.. I guess some ppl have extreme value mod's tied to a mission running ship.
Lebowske	Posted - 2005.02.10 02:35:00 - [50] This mission must never be nerfed or changed because it's "hard". It's about right where it should be - omg - it's a lovly mission! :D And yes, you should come prepared - thermal & kin hardeners. Im using an AB on my Apoc too - so Im able to stay in my opt range for much much longer without the rat's ending up on the top of my hull too fast. Remember your hardeners, cap, damage mods, repairers/boosters and your scotch - and you'll be swinging :D Total bounty for the whole mission is about 25 Mill. Thank you CCP - great work with this one! -------------------- - Lebowski -- I, the royal we, you know, the editorial --
4 LOM	Posted - 2005.02.10 07:09:00 - [51] Edited by: 4 LOM on 10/02/2005 07:09:54 did the guristas one in my raven, np but lots of bs's to kill had to go back for ammo a few times. also to the guy who posted saying that it was one of the easyer level 4's, thats because they were bugged at first and you get the level 3 varient from your level 4 agent... if you get it again you will change your mind, most i had was 7-8bs's in one stage with 4x agroing me at once. they seemed to agro in groups not locations... so make sure you only fire apon ships that are shooting you so you dont agro another group (had all 4-5 agro groups in one big ass clump scared the **** out of me untill i realized that not all agroed at once). and what ever you do dont shoot the sentry guns till the end or you will die. but ya raven for the win My total bounties for the mission was around 37M isk 4x limos seige 2x standard seige 2x heavy nos 2x thermal 2x kenetic 1x large sheild booster II 1x sheild boost amp 5x pdu II

The worst part is I'm still waiting on the Petition for it, and from my estimation its been about 3 days now; petition was filed on Monday night :(
