Angel Battlestation , ages and ages to destroy well worth it to get those 100 thorn rockets thanks oh generous mission writer dudes.
That's one "reward" I will not be going for again.
My constructive feedback would be to make the reward more equal to the effort it takes to achieve.

"I blew up an Angel battlestation and all I got was these rockets."
Thankfully I knew of that crappy loot in advance so I never even bothered to go there.

You must be talking about the lvl 3 version. The Angel Battlestation in lvl 4 AE bonus stage always drops 30K bane torps + Domination Platinum tag along with some random goodies.

Does the lvl4 drop any other loot ? I know the GE bonus level occasionely drops some dread guristas loot. I've run both the angel and the gurista version a few times now and it seems the reward of the guristas is better (DG stuff :P ) while the angel version is a lot more difficult to do.

I haven't tried the level 4 version yet, wanting to get some better gear. But how hard is it to do solo? At what point do you think I should jump in and give it a run without too much risk of losing my ship?

I've gotten a few Domination items from the Battlestation and Cynabal BPCs from the retirement home. However, the drop rate is quite low. In my experience faction loot drops about 1/10 of the time in the AE bonus stage.

At least good to know it's worth the effort though i still think a GE is way to easy compared to a AE.
For me it's one of the tougher missions (also because i do use a general setup for all missions which are mostly against serp/guristas). Still even with the right setup they deal a lot of damage so i would suggest to first try it with 1 or 2 friends. Once you're familiar with the spawns go in solo.

would have to agree the first time you do it I would recomend having someone that can suppoort your logistically either with drones or both drones and mods. Its nice if you don't have to warp out. So many damn gates to pass though just to get back there.

That's Another difference which makes the GE easier, in GE you land within 4km of the next acceleration gate while in the AE you mostly have to fly 20-30km

Actually, a friend and I just did this the other day. Normally in my raven, I can run every mission I get solo, except In the Midsts of Deadspace. I solo AE, SE, Vengance, and all the other "hard" level 4's. This bonus stage was unreal in the DPS. My buddy was in a logistics boosting my shield as much as my XL SB constantly, and they STILL broke my tank.
I guess it was kinda worth it, now I know what's in there, those 30,000 toprps melt pretty well, and you get a 6 mil effecs from it. Lotsa bounty in that last place too. Next time I'll bring another friend so I won't have to warp out

A corpmate and I did this one last night. It was my mission so I tanked it, but it was also my first level 4 AE mission. He'd done it with another corpmate before. The first room was the only trouble. My mate was giving me cap support so I could run 2 Lg reppers, but I only needed that for the first few minutes until we culled the blob a bit. Then all I needed was 1 repper and passive recharge to keep that running. The rest of the levels were much easier, since the groups aggroed separately. I could have done the whole thing solo with a few uses of a Lg cap booster and 800 charges for the times when I needed 2 reppers.
I was in a Domi, he was in a Raven. T2 scouts and T1 heavy drones for me, T1 cruise missles for him. We both have T2 tanks. Hope that gives you an idea.
edit: Oh, did you mean how hard is the bonus level? If so, my bad, we didn't do it. -- Guile can always trump hardware -- |

i solo'd the l4 bonus yesterday... in a chimera :) but thats all over tomorrow :
Deadspace acceleration gates no longer permit the entry of carriers, freighters, dreadnoughts, motherships and titans.
from the patchnotes.
the battlestation drops 30k banes but also more good stuff, usualy 10k large projectile ammo and 10 drones a domi tag and some more. and indeed, the retirement home in front of it can drop faction loot ocasionaly.

I try to take out these stations when I run across them, they tend to drop some nice books/other equipment every now and then. Generally I just send my drones on it after I know I can tank the rest of the guys.

AE bonus doesnt drop domination stuff very often. 1/10 ? well i think is more a merely 5% chance to have some Domination mod. I did it many time now (25 or 30) and only got 1. If we compare it to GE it seem AE need some ajustement. Bonus are a lots more harder than GE, the total mission bounty is bout 6-8 millions less than GE and it take more time (for me) than GE to complete. CCP should Remove the Bane torps, 11th and other crap and put some faction loot or at least raise the chance of having some.
btw, The Battlestation isnt that hard/long to pop. Takes me 3 torp bays recharge until it poof!
Note: the DPS is insane so you have to take the most dmger first (http://eveinfo.com/missions/4/). A lot easier if you do.
