Teach me.
I read all the guides, using T2 mods and faction weapons\sentry drones.
This mission doesn't seems to worth the effort of killing everything except blitzing as it happens yo uare attacked in there with all 4 damage type and you are facing all rat types. Royally annoying.
So any point trying to kill everything in there?

I don't think any implant ever dropped there. I remember 3 missions which gives good implant drop: 1. Angel Extravaganza 2. some mission with blood raiders chapel. 3. some storyline mission which gives as mission reward that leadership implant.
But from what I read with enough alpha you can kill scarlet twice and get 10 mill in bounties.

With good large projectile skills you can one shot here in room 2, and then again in room 3; and she drops an implant. Pick up the implant, warp out, complete mission with agent.
Now you can do a whole mission clear and kill everything, hover up all the loot, and salvage the wrecks; that will take you awhile, but will give some decent bounties. Some people say a complete mission clear is worth it, but in missioning the LP is where the real isk is at; so it is better to blitz and get on to the next mission. |

this specific mission is problematic because you need omni tank and omni gank as you encounter loads of pirate types in same pocket so it's lot of field refitting or warping to station and back... so not worth the effort I think..
maybe on marauder or something.

with a ship like a rattlesnake I will take 2 sets of sentries and a gecko and omnitank my ship, deals with a clear all in an almost afk fashion.
I omnitank my ships in general as I don't really want someone warping in with a gank ship and hitting my resist hole (I tested torp raven vs kronos a while back, 2-3 volleys of nova rage torps and bye bye kronos). plus I have the skills and fit where my ships kill enemy ships fast enough I don't really have to worry too much about tank.
even so I just blitz the mission, a volley of 1400s takes her out and I make good money plus get a +3 cha implant.

note the drones and afk part :p
but seriously in general I can't stand flying a rattlesnake, even if the drones are awesome. But with rails/lasers you will likely have a damage type issue in this mission, projectiles work pretty okay, but meh, not really worth clearing the mission imo.

Partly depends who you are missioning for.
If the agent corp is someone with cr@p isk/lp like CN or Fed Navy then a full clear gives about 30 mill in bounties.
If you are getting proper ISK/LP (better than 2 to 1) you are better off with blitzing. |

The better your ISK per LP is, the less it's worth to kill everything. So if you want to know when it's worth blitzting with your skills, your fitting, your fly style, your ISK/lp item, you have to claculate it yourself.
There is no way around it. Because we don't know those things about you.
Fly the missions and kill everything. Messure the time and money you get out of it. Best if yo do it multiple times. Than do the same with blitzting. Now compare the numbers. Remember to to use the same time interval before comparing.
Here are some old stats, you probably can't use them (Because different fitting, skills etc.) but maybe it gives you an idea on how to optimize your missining: https://i.imgur.com/Gq7ScTl.png (Sorted by: Gewinn/stunde == ISK/h)

I did :) GÇ£ScarletGÇ¥ this morning for abought 1h 20 min, 3 systems away flight. ~32 mil full bounty/loot/salvage/reward + LP. Passive Gila + 3MTU + 4x2 fleet drone of each type + inferno fury lights + Noctis. 5.2 mil SP pilot, so Gila has no enough alpha to one-shoot-kill Scarlet = no implants.

This.
Drops Social adaptive Implant I believe. Worth around 10-12 mil.
Usually do it in a Navy Domi or Mach. |

Never been a problem for me omni tank and go for it. Run Dread in a domi, navy domi, raven, navy raven, abaddon, rattle, golem, even in an ishkur. Have to admit they are all easy mode compared to using the Ishkur.
Missiles have a small advantage in some ways with select-able damage types that you can easily change on the fly, but not enough so to make them the "best" to use, or even to rate a real recommendation.
Drones have the same benefits/disadvantages as missiles.
Clear vs Blitz is and always will be a big decision for each pilot.
Many just enjoy wading through the pockets killing everything in sight and that is just as valid as any other reason to run them.
Blitz can lead to more ISK because LP to ISK but this is not always the truth for all pilots and in all situations.
Blitz always was and always will be the best way to max LP no matter what you intend to do with that LP.
Having a second account that can follow one room behind and salvage/loot is critical to making full clear a viable ISK making option and depending on the particular sub-set of missions an agent gives out this can have the best ISK/hr ratio.
If you are running missions for ISK/hr then 4's is not where you need to be, blitzing 3's in a properly set up ship is the king of ISK/hr for mission runners. Lost the link to the topic here that discussed this but a search should find it easily.

Your ISK/hour is based on full completion or blitzing?
How did you completed 'Gone Berserk' in 7 minutes? I've used rail Kronos - it takes significantly more time.

Anire Scarlet is vulnerable to tackle mods...fit a warp disruptor and tackle her in the second room you get a 7-8M ISK implant + 5M ISK bounty + about 2M in mission completion ISK + the LP reward. So you get almost 15M ISK + LP for 5 minutes if you have the key to the first gate. Love that mission. Didn't know you could kill her twice though. |

Personally I use a shield buffer-fit/MWD Tornado for Dread Scarlet. I pop her once, then pop her twice, get implant and turn-in. Easy peasy. |

I don't have mad skills indeed. I just released myself from the horrible existence as a miner. I now purify myself with proper turret skills and used sentry drones as crutch until I can properly shoot stuff. But this mission was bit hit and miss due to the mix of rats in there so now when I know the trick to nuke the boss on the second room I'll manage.
cheers!

if a shield buffer tornado works I really doubt the mad skills are required. she has 4500 HP, not quite sure what the resists are, but for a long time I was using a 6 gun mach. The only time I ever remember not killing her with one shot was when I bounced off the beacon and had a lot of transversial (freak accident batman!)
also I remember popping her and getting the implant with less than stellar dps. If I remember right it was an ishtar with garde IIs before drone damage amps were a thing, so I think that was 538 dps? EFT seems to be suggesting it was even less. although there have been a few changes there and I'm not properly controlling for all them. maybe it was ~700 dps and DDA were a thing, but this is going back a while. 700 dps is a pretty low threshold imo. and pretty much any 1400 setup will instapop her.

It took me 2-3 volleys with a 690 DPS rail proteus. I was not aware you could kill her twice I could do with some explanation there.

yea as soon as you take any offensive action against her the first time she vanishes, luckily turrets hit first and if you can alpha her you get a bonus kill.
the second time I'm not sure exactly how it works, other than it seems to be timed, but not sure when that starts. but having something that is fast warping and/or fast locking like a cruiser hull probably only helps.
it is also one of those things where it is a nice bonus and not necessarily something I would rush into, but shouldn't be seen as way out of reach. I mean for my first year (and probably a lot longer) I was horribly inefficient when it came to pve.

I got the version of this mission yesterday with mostly Serpentis rats. Did a full clear in a MJD blaster Kronos in just over half an hour and made just a bit under 100M in bounty+loot. To be honest, this mission was far better when you used to be able to farm the first room as the rats re-spawned every time you warped in and out.
