I know CCP have made this easier, by not just delaying the Stabbers porting in, but they have also reduced the number of ships you need to kill.
I use a Maller, decent guns and equipment and before the patch it was a good challenge, but do-able.
Now after the patch, its just another mission and the loot is a lot less.
I think people had problems with it as they didnt think of tactics, or how to use bookmarks and draw out the hard ships from the others enabling you to tackle them 1st.
Please CCP, restore this back to how it was, a challenge, something to look forwards to and break the monotony of the grind of mission after mission of simple and easy kills.

Then do lvl 3's
Dont expect ccp to tailor everything to the individual, most people couldnt do the mission, thats why its nerfed.

I would agree... except that I just managed to have the client grind to a halt on me during a llv3 version, costing me a HAC.
till the client stopped responding, it was a walk in the park, far easier than I'd prepared for.
time to go buy another gig of ram for this PC, I fear... damn memory leak

I accepted the offer before the patch, did the mission after the patch, and proceeded to collect rewards from prepatch acceptance!

I just did the lvl2 for the first time ever, on my cruiser with lame skills.. It was boring.
Edit: The first swarms I let come around myself and killed very easy. Then looted them while waiting for more. Most of the loot was Miner Is. Wtf? The last couple larger ships were a bit more like work, especially as I had problems reaching them (poor range, I'm working on it). But the first waves were just pathetic for my Caracal.

I disagree. Most people could do it. Those who couldn't do it whined that long and loud that CCP nerfed it. The mission wasn't really that hard if you used the right ship with the right setup and used your head.

You can still solo lvl 4 missions with the right shi, the right setup and using your head.
That doesn't mean most people are ready to do that.

I did the lvl 2 version of this mission in a Caracal, and I do the lvl 3 version in a Ferox. It was the whiners who jumped onto the forums and cried, "ohnoes! I lost my BS 'cause they warpscrambled me!!11one", that caused this and a few other missions to be nerfed.
Ah well.

Techno Secrets wasn't all that hard at lvl2 before the update (and I couldn't try lvl 3 at the time since I didn't the required standing), did it with minimal hassle in a Harpy.
I'm sure the settings for the lvl 2 and lvl 3 versions could be set seperately.
Haven't had it at lvl 3 yet since I got my agent, so don't know how it will be

5 and 0 on pre-nerf level 2's in a Caracal. Harpy'd probably be overkill on level 2 ;).
Enjoyed it in a Caracal, especially as I had less then 800k SP when I was winning them. Came close to blowing up a few times....the only complaint I had was how long it'd take, but difficulty is good.
No idea how the level 3's/4's are yet.
