Is there anything more effective than a pair of T2 Sensor boosters? Because even with those I can't target crap :( |

FoFs or Drones, the choice is yours!
Seriously though, i did it this morning and although the jamming was a bit of a pain in the backside, the damage isnt that significant that you can't wait till the jammers get under 17K to pop them.

Edited by: Shameless Avenger on 30/04/2007 08:38:53 Thanks for the tips. I warped in at 100km, got agro and start running away. The jammed-range was sucking, around 15-20km. I waited, frigates came in first, they got poped, then cruisers, poped. Then battleships...poped.
rinse/repeat for every reinforcement.
But still, it's taking a very long time. Whats the point of making 10M in a few hours in *one* mission when I could be doing double that mining veldspar on the Hulk? I will decline this one from now on. Maybe with more gunnery skills... maybe. But the ISK per hour ratio doesn't make sense.

Try the lvl 3 Blockade, 6M (bounties+reward) in 45 minutes tops. Also which NPC's are you talking about in your Blockade, Serp? There's more than one version.

Just did lvl3 blockade in my ferox, it must have changed because that was somthing, checked to see and made over 10m isk in kill bountues alone :) them 250k cruisers are tough to take down...... If u could do lvl4's of that type then u are something to but as u say - why bother. But i agree i was there thinking when the **** they would give up.

Its terrible.
When I do it now. I do it in pairs, one tanks while the other one shoots.
Shoot the ships in the wrong order and more come making it impossilbe to lock your own nose.

Get an inty or very fast frig, fit with nanos, istabs, and overdrives, and enough cap mods to run a MWD forever. Warp in to mission, begin orbiting at 150km.
The frigate going waaaay too fast to be hit is taking the aggro, while you and/or you buddies are free to blast away. If one of the gunships gets aggro on the next wave, just warp out and come back in. ----------------

Update:
I have done the mission 2 more times, I'm getting better at it and wanted to share my strategies / setups.
Since is not deedspace, I can warp in at 100km. I went with a heavy tanking setup so I started fitting from the lows:
Using a Megathron
Lows 1 x Draclira's Modified LAR 1 x LAR T2 1 x Beta Reactor Control CPR 4 x Hardeners T2 (thermic & kinetic)
Mids 1 x Sensor Booster T2 3 x Cap rechargers T2
High 6 x 425mm Railguns T2
Drones Hamerheads T2
Rigs 1 x Auxiliary Nano Pump 2 x CCC
On the last wave, after killing the simple stuff I was left with 8 BS. So to speed up things, I changed to:
Lows 1 x Draclira's Modified LAR 1 x Beta Reactor Control CPR 2 x Hardeners T2 (thermic & kinetic) 1 x EANM T2 2 x Mag Stab T2
Meds 4 x Cap rechargers T2
High 7 x 425mm Railguns T2
...And switched to Heavy drones.
I warped in at a distance, with iridium ammo, and targeted the frigates and destroyers (the drone killers) before the permajam at ranges of 100km aprox. Started running away. Then they start the jamming, but is not permanent so I activated weapons and keep my eye on the targeting button. Between cycles, I pop all remaining frigates and destroyers. Then the cruisers (the actual jammers) get close, at about 20km they can be targeted. Release drones. I lost a few locks, but then I only needed the lock to tell the drones who to attack. Drones poped the cruisers one by one. Then There's no more jam and BS are @ 50km on pursuit. Turn around and start poping them. When in range, switch to antimatter.
When there's only one BS left, the reinforcements will appear soon, recall your drones and finish the BS with the guns. Watch out for the reinforcements. Since I was running away from the start, chances are the reinforcements will spawn at more 100km. Repeat strategy. They reinforce 4 times.
I never had to use the 2nd reper BTW. Maybe a Mag Stab there would be more usefull. And without the 2nd LAR, there's more grid for guns and no need for so many cap recharging/cpr mods.
My best mission time so far, 96 minutes... 20M earned (aprox). loot time, 30 minutes, 5 more millions there (loot and salvage).
I still haven't max out gunnery skills, ship specific command, cap skills and drone skills. When I do it's gonna be easier. Ohh, and I need a Navy Mega with t2 rigs :( and more officer stuff!

I wish I would have seen this before last nite. The level 4 mission took quite a while solo and I lost several hours of sleep finishing the mission. Oh well, its on my decline list, even though the bounty and lp was sick for 1 mission.

Great strategy mate.
The ewar I usually fly against is target painting and sensor damping. Even sensor damping is better than jamming.
Warping in at range is necessary for the angels version too as the BS wtfpwn you with close range thermal immediately (least hardened) and they never get close enough after that to warrant hardning against it.
