GONE BESERK
What agent faction you use: Caldari (Spacelane)
What faction you are against: EoM
What to use for damage: Kinetic
What to tank for: Omni, but especially EM, thermal and explosive (they use Exp cruise missiles and lasers)
Deadspace Levels: 1
System: 0.7
Well for anyone else who gets it, use Kinetic damage, and tank for explosive, em, thermal and kinetic.
ie omni.
you get 3 BS and 3 BCs. kill them and 3 more BS arrive. Kill them and you end up with more. 500k, 750k and a 1m rat. Kill those, you get the same again.
I'm doing the mission ATM so I'm not really sure what does what but right now I've got 2 1m rats on my screen and 1 BC. I use a standard tank but gistii C-type large and domination boost + crystal set and I started to go down in shields (though not past 75% - most missions wont knock me past 95%).
I've used drones but because the waves come so quick, I had to recall them at least 3 or 4 times to stop them being attacked.
Still doing mission (will edit as I go) but 11m in bounties so far.
1 deadspace area, no gates.

Sounds better than being swamped with millions of frigs and cruisers.
Can you post the security rating of the system too please.

MISSION : Surprise Surprise
Agent : Minmatar
Enemies : Amarr/Caldari Fleets
LeveL : 4
Reward: 200k + 200k
LP : 800 (!!!)
System Sec : 0.3 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
No deadspace, you warp in to a single Amarr transport.
Once you kill it , you get a warp in of 3 Amarr navy BS and 5 Cruisers.
After I killed 1 of the BSes, I got a warp in of Caldari And some more Amarr.
After killing some of those, you get another warp in.
And it ends.

I've gotten GONE BERSERK lvl 3 against EoM (Equilibrium of Mankind)
It paid almost nothing in rewards. Around 200K including time bonus and I got 256 LP with an agent at effective quality 28.
There were a lot of small waves. Each wave consisted of 1-2 cruisers and 1-2 frigs. Largest bounty was 110K. Main damage type that I noticed was kinetic missiles.
At the end I think there were around 25 wrecks. Every wreck contained loot. I completed the mission in a Harpy.

The assault against Seprentis. After killing most of the ship in the first romm the BS have target dampened me to less than 8 km and the 4 BS have been reinforce by a group of lesser shis, included at least 2 warp scrambling frigates.
Unable to lock and scrambled, bye bye ship.

The reward and bonus will work itself out apparently, ignore that for the moment.

Mission: Break Their Will (lvl 3)
What agent faction you use: Amarr (Navy)
What faction you are against: Mercs, Sansha
What to use for damage: You need to destroy a repair station so i guess fit for whatever does most dmg to structures.
What to tank for: EM/Thermal/Kin
When you get to the mission there's no rats in there. As soon as you target the repairer, lots of frigs and cruisers spawn and also a few turrets. Didn't hang around for too long cause they seemed a lot of them. Wasted the repairer and got the hell out :D

Please post here any new missions you get:
What agent faction you use: Caldari Lvl 4
Mission name: Damsel/*****(you deciede in a brothel again) in Distress
What faction you are against: Zazzmatazz(mercs)
What to use for damage: I used Thermal Cruise
What to tank for: Omni all though first 3 spawns do lean towards kinetic
Any other info:
Initial spawn was 3 x 250k BS, Kruul, 4 cruisers some frigs maybe 6.
Aggro Krull and 4bs spawn (250k).
Aggro Structure Damsel is in 3 more bs (250k)and some cruiser (85k) + frigs spawn.
Damsel Structure gets to low HP Zor + escort spawns (omni tank).
Zor has 2x spider drones with him I didn't notice any frigs warp scramble me or my wingman.
Shield recharge on the structure is insane might need tweaking 2 x ravens took almost full loads to pop.
Rats spawning will agrro anyone, really low LP 949 for lvl 4 mission reward and bonus were 222k and 208k 40 minutes for the bonus time, fairly decent loot bs only fire Scourge Heavy missiles until Zor arrives (Cataclysm Cruise).
Edit Initial warp in lands you right on top of the NPC's regardless of distance you choose subsequent warp-ins will come out at the distance you select.

L4 mission: Cargo delivery.
I need a shipment of some juicy Quafe Ultra delivered to this station as soon as possible. It's currently stored inside one of our warehouses in Ikao, I'll give you the coordinates to there of course. Just warp to our outpost, navigate to the warehouse and pick up the shipment, then return it to Irjunen II - Corporate Police Force Assembly Plant. Simple ain't it?
Just make sure you keep a lookout for any suspicious activity. You can't be too careful these days.
What agent faction you use: Corp police force
What faction you are against: Serps
What to use for damage: Kin
What to tank for: kin/therm
Any other info: Warp in is fixed, 30km to the warehouse. 1 frig, 4 crusier and 1 BS pop as you approach. Killing one of the cruisers triggers 2 HAC, 3 or 4 cruiser and 6 more BS (1 named Dune Conal). You can loot the stuff and run at anytime but why do that 8)
medium to hard

Gone Berserk
From Space Lane agent (Caldari)
Vs. EoM (
Used Kinetic (Wardens) & Thermal (Ogres)
Tank vs. Kinetic & Thermal
Have a look at other missions vs. EoM (Equilibrium of Mankind) at eveinfo.com and you will be fine.
Difficulty: Medium
More annoying than hard b/c the endless (eight) waves of ships. Great $$$$ however, but the short, short bonus reward time is ridiculous (45 mins!).
There are 15 Amarr BSes in this mission that deal out mostly kinetic damage via missiles.

New Mission: "Cargo Delivery Lvl4"
You have to warp to a deadspace warehouse and get the Quafe inside back to your agent. Easy right?
What agent faction you use: Amarr
What faction you are against: Gallente (?)
What to use for damage: Kin and Therm
What to tank for: Kin and Therm
Level: medium, lots of blasterthorns, several HACs and a BC. If they all get in close range the DPS is worrysome but manageble. (unauthorised military presence hard)
You warp to a station and there are NO ships there. Once you get close to the warehouse the first wave hits. I killed one ship (cant remember) and another wave of 5-6 blasterthorns warped in. One of the blasterthorns was a 1.2 mil named Dune Conal.
All in all: HELLA FUN!!! THANKS CCP@@

The assault level 4.
4x BS 2x Elite frigs. Frigs may have scrambled i don't know something happened i think when i attacked the 4 BS's while waiting to lock a frig but anyway reinforcements come at 120km away.
Other group seemed to aggro my drones randomly lost one Wasp I warped out as i was busy while doing it.
Haven't done the 2nd stage if there is one

Vengeance - Lvl 4 (Sansha)
Doesn't appear any different to me. Spawns still seem to be the same size and numbers.
Only change I noticed was that the 2.5M BS at the end orbits closer. His tank didn't seem as tough either, but I've got new guns since I last fought him, so it's hard to tell.

Attack of the Drones
You have to go escort a convoy back to base but upon arrival it's dead already.
A small group of drones spawn (no BS's), and killing each of them aggro's a new spawn, with BS's.
4 in total, 3 to 4 BS per spawn.
Didn't really look at names and numbers.
It though it was going to be easy ; it didn't even had a total reward of half a mill and only 886LP, so I was kinda 'nothing tanking', my alt saved me 
And it's Blockade style again, bla bla in every channel.
Edit 1: Oh and I got Enemies Abound, rewards and LP's still the same, for now ...
Edit 2: Something went wrong

Looks like LP awards have been given a slight increase. Both lvl 4 missions I had with two Caldari agents before patch are showing different LP awards, about 500 LP higher for each mission, Missions are Duo of Death and Rogue Drones

I've got a lot of ingame mails with updates. And I'm trying to keep up, even though I haven't had time to play the new missions myself. Mostly because some of you keep me busy updating the mission pages. 
I've got mails about every mission mentioned here including screenshots. But I miss a few including the Surprise Surprise mission mentioned. And there will be more. So I put an open request here to use your posts for reports in the mission pages. You will be credited of course if I use some or everything from your report.

Can people please check their faction standing changes aswell ? Not the amounts as they can differ but checking for standing losses. For those of us trying to mend our faction standings a big hit to certain factions would make it near impossible to ever fix some standings. I personally have to turn down missions where I'm required to kill Caldari or Ammar because they're not all to happy about the 20 or so commadore's ( + fleets ) I've given a vacumm bath to.
Trying to get Caldari to like me is a real grind running -20 lvl 1 agents. ( worked my way up to lvl2's finally )

The Repair Station
Originally by: Marquis Dean
[...]
Any other info: Kill the repair station, as it remote repairs all the rats in the encounter to the point where they are unkillable.
When you start firing on the station, you trigger a spawn. With a Myrm and heavy drones, you draw the rats away from the repair station so they won't be remote repaired while you go for the sentrys. Kill at least 2 or 3 of the Sentrys, turn and while heading for the repair station, you go for the rats, then the repairstation itself. Destruction of it will spawn another group of about 6-8 ships - mostly cruiser - so the remaining question is, if you have already salvaged or not. 
btw. was easy but I used 3 drone rigs (2xrange, 1xspeed)

Damsel In Distress Lvl 4
In addition to previous posts on this mission, blowing the structure required to release the Damsel can cause you a lot of damage. I switched to Javelin ammo to max my damage as the structures are so hard to take down, needs altering as a previous post has said. But being that close and having my dornes out to max the damage, I took a big hit when it blew as did my drones.
First time i have seen damage given when a structure blows, a great twist i thknk, but be careful.
the structure blowing also seemed to be the trigger for the next spawn.
I rate this mission in its current form the hardest Lvl 4 I have done yet

Mission: Gone Berserk
Level: 4
Agent corp/faction: Astral Mining/Gallente
Against: EoM
Damage to inflict: Kinetic
Damage to tank: Kinetic and Thermal
Time for bonus: 3 hours
Mission reward: 758,000 isk and 1102 LP
Time bonus: 724,000 isk
A few notes:
I don't know what the trigger sequence is as I have only done the mission once, but the sequence I used was to concentrate on battleships. This resulted in many waves, but the waves were small - 1 or 2 ships - and the damage from the cruisers was easily tankable. My plan was to keep the big damage to a minimum by keeping the number of battleships under control, and it seemed to work.
As well as the initial group when you warp in, I had a total of 12, yes 12, waves, giving the following total ship counts (all EoM):
2 Saboteurs (frigates) - web but no scram
6 Death Knights (cruisers)
3 Crusaders (cruisers)
3 Death Lords (battleships) - 1 million isk bounty on each
3 Orgres (battleships)
9 Hyrdas (battleships)
Drones received no aggro at all - spawns targetted me regardless of how close they appeared to my drones.
Mission objective was achieved by destroying the first Death Lord, though this was only a third of the way through the spawns.
Bounties totalled about 10 million isk.
1.6% standing increase with NPC, 4.8% with agent.
Took about an hour to kill all the ships using T1 heavies and no guns.
When salvaging, take a BIG ship - I got over 3000 m3 in loot. I haven't worked out the value of it all yet, but based on the look of some of the items, I would estimate something between 10 and 20 million isk.

What agent faction you use: Caldari Agent
What faction you are against: Serpentis
What to use for damage: Standard Kinetic (cruise missiles for me)
What to tank for: 60/40 Therm/Kinetic or 1x Th, 1x Kin 1x Invulnv
Any other info: Warp in, turn AB on...grab the Quaffe and align with station, as Serpnetis mainly use guns, distance = best tank. At roughly 400 m/s I managed to put enough distance between me and the triggered spawns that my active tank never needed a boost. Just in case I slayed the SINGLE frigate first. Then started removing BS. a few more triggered spawns but still no threat to tank. Very active use of dampers by their Elite Cruisers which resulted in quite a few lost locks around 50k (regular range is 112k for me). Very decent bounties (roughly 16M) sadly nothing to write home about for loot and none in local willing to salvage so I can't answer how the salvage was.
Medium (WC level) I rate WC slightly below hard as I can control agro as long as the drones stay docked.

Doing a little mission whoring on my time between corps.
I got the new assault mission.
The Assault (guristas)
Stage 1:
1. Attack group by the gate first, they send out a distress signal, a ton more BSes spawn ~115k away. (Not sure which one I shot to make reinforcements come!) Took out the cheapest battleships first to eliminate damage. Watch out for tackle.
3. Attack the next group (all cruisers) 70km from the gate.
Stage 2: No agro on warp in
1. Far right closer group (4 bs, a couple elite cruisers, 2 elite frigs) aggros alone, kill them. I killed the 2 dire frigs first, in case of tackle.
2. Other groups aggro together? I think shooting one of the destroyers calls in more reinfircements.
Passive shield tank is the new WCS! |

Are we seeing new faction specific electronic warfare. I've done cargo lvl 3 with seprentis elite BC's jamming like crazy and blood with neutralisers and ? NOS in lvl 4 cargo.
The ? new elite BC's are tough as well and take a while to kill (relatively) even in a blaster myrm setup.
Enjoying the new missions though

Nice to see the game auto-adjusting (i.e., increasing) the rewards for the new missions - based on the last post about Gone Berserk.
More unchanged missions:
- Zazz,
- Infiltrated Outpost (did we expect changes here? Or for Drone Harassment?), and
- Both parts of Rogue Slave Traders.

I did Vengeance and Gone Berserk - both level 4 - last night, and bounties seemed OK.

I just did 'Attack of the drones'. No bounties there (as usual for drone missions).
I have also done a 'Stop the thief' and a 'Duo of death' and both of those had bounties.

Damsel in Distress
Bit of extra info I found that when i did the mission a second time the 4 x 250k bs which spawned on aggroing kruul didn't spawn, I can only put that down to being over 50km from the pleasure gardens as the 3rd time I did the mission I was 47km and they did spawn.
Makes the mission a little easier but 1m down the pan.
Bounties and rewards are still being paid out quite nicely same as before patch, Zrakor has posted in another thread that the "isk nerf" for missions applies generally to the lvl 5+ missions opening up so its not the i-win isk printing button.

General rule of thumb for all new missions that have triggered waves:
Always kill the new spawns first, as soon as something spawns switch to the new ships and kill them all then continue on with the old stuff, this will prevent you from getting swamped.
Make sure to keep your drones in check, especially on Damsel where Kruul only needs to be damaged (not killed) to trigger a new spawn. You will also want to redraw drones when a new wave spawns, seems there's always at least one ship going after the drones.
When you control the flow of the spawns none of these missions are harder than the hardest of the old missions, if however you kill without thinking twice you'll be neckdeep in doodoo.

Did a lvl 4 Serpentis Extravaganze (gallie navy agent) last night.
Nothing changed, same deadspace levels, same rats, same tactics, same bounties, same rewards, same crappy loot, same decent salvage.
Same standing increase too (exactly).
All the stuff above does not necessarily reflect my corp, my alliance or even me..

Lvl 4 mission Attack of the drones.
When you warp in initially you get an "oh dear the convoy is dead investigate please" message from your agent (in every channel ofc) shortly after a group of 5 drones spawns of which 4 are "bomber".
Each of the "bomber" drones that spawn in the first wave will trigger a reinforcement group of 2-3 "Dominix drones" I found if you you pop them individually 3 will spawn each time but 2 at a time will spawn a group of 2 and a group of 3.
There are 4 groups of reinforcements drone alloy amounts is quite good definately worth coming back to scoop.
LP and rewards aren't that great but there is only the first spawn which gives you scramming drones to worry a bout and the BS sized ones dont deal that great an amount of damage if you warp out and warp back in again you can define the distance from the warp in point second time around.

The Assault - Serpentis
(used a dual rep domi for this)
There are 4 main groups when you come in. I took the right group first shooting Iridium from dual 250s w/ Heavy drones to munch battleships. This trigged the reinforecment sapwn. So I popped the small guardian frigates and started moving right to avoid other aggro. Moving seemed to trigger the left hand group so I kept running. Munched through 4-5 battleships then turned back towards the gate, picked up the rest of the aggro slowly keeping drones away from proximity fire. Used a sensor booster as the Guardian Cruisers damp!
Good spawns, good isk, good fun :).
2nd Gate:
4 guardian frigs @ 20k of spawn - take these first and move away from big group.
Keep running so the blaster Core Admirals can't get too close, then when you're sure you can tank them turn round and pop them. Leave the High? Rear? Admiral to last as he triggers another wave. Unless you like them 
Careful if you're a drone merchant - there are a lot of aggro triggers and you will lose drones.
Stage 3:
Shoot stuff, take out what you struggle against first. Both groups seem to share aggro.
Kin/Therm tank of course.

lev 3 on break their will (caldari)
objective is destroy the repairstation
in chat you ll see the station will send drones to repair everything untill all drones are gone or out of power
there are 3 auxiliary power cores around , they go down fast, and they re at approx 41 km away from warpin .
kill those and no repairing anymore .
keep repairstation till last , so you have that last wave of mercs with free hands

Attack of the Drones L4
What agent faction you use: Amarr
What faction you are against: Drones
What to use for damage: EM
What to tank for: Omni
Any other info: Strain frigates will scramble but are quite weak. Frigates are triggers for successive waves, so take down BS groups first.
Medium (Spy Stash level)
Note: triggers aren't frigates really, they just have frigates size icons. I had waves spawned on killing (not just attacking, but killing) Bomber Alvums, one wave for each death.
Wish I had read this first!
I can verify this, on arrival I quickly dispatched all four bomber alvums then had to deal with 9-10 BSes and maybe 30-35 cruisers and a dozen more frigates, these guys were very hard to kill I took four BSes before losing a Raven, and I assure you it was mostly T2 and named components. This mission is a killer if you wake them all up at once.
My advice, kill one and run out, make them chase you, stay far out. At least it was a ranged encounter and not a deadspace. I tried focusing fire on one at a time but the scrammers got me just after the fourth BS went down. The BSes can hit you at about 100 Km so a long range tank might be the best strategy for this one.
I never figured out which rat was scramming me, but I think it was the frigates..oh wait... checks the log with QuickFit Log view... للStrain Decimator Alvi scramble on Aramis
This is a good mission for a strong squad.
Damage received : لللل
. From Strain Decimator Alvi : 1833.2 لللل
. From Exterminator Alvatis : 10886.7 لللل
. From Alvus Ruler : 59843.7 لللل
. From Supreme Alvus Parasite : 6356.1 لللل
. From Bomber Alvum : 10066.8 لللل
. From Marauder Alvior : 2850.9 لللل
. Total : 91837.4
Humility is the hallmark of honorable character.

I've fiddled with these power stations a lot. So far I came up with these conclusions for doing this mission:
(1) shoot the repair station, warp out and turn it in.
(2) shoot the repair station, tank everything. Easier against Serpentis than against Angels because one damage type less to deal with when the mercenaries come in. Never had this mission against Bloods.
(3) shoot all power stations first, then attack the repair station. Go back to (2). Destroying those stations before aggressing the station had no effect at all for me. The station happily repairs, spamming the chat.
(4) take on shot on the repair station, then shoot the power ones. You need to throw a lot of damage at the first station as it will get repaired, but the repair effect can be overcome. With every power structure down, the repair intervalls will get bigger, making it easier to take down power structures 2 and 3. After all are down, the mission chat spam will decrease drastically!! The repair station will do a few more repair cycles though (without green text, so i don't mind).
