Just ran this mission vs. Angels a couple of nights ago in a T1 sniper Mael. It was fairly easy, but that may be because I was running a shield tank vs. mostly explosive/kinetic damage. It might be harder for an armor tank or a close range ship (aside from missiles, most of the armaments of the rats are close range). They have replaced multiple concurrent spawns in the rooms with ôwavesö, so you donÆt get the chance of full room agro, unless you are unlucky and pop the trigger ships early.
I think the spawns and trigger ships have some randomization, but for me the trigger ships were always a BS, and usually it was the only BS of its type in the spawn. In one of the waves I picked the wrong ship as the trigger and wound up popping the real trigger early. This brought in a second wave and it definitely got a little hairy as they all came within optimal range and started out-pacing my arty tracking. Had to run the AB and XL SB for a while, but aside from that it was the only time I had to burn cap boosters to keep up.
Over all a fun mission, not too challenging, and much improved over the old design with multiple spawns in each room from the start. A final word of caution. This mission does contain scramble and web frigs, so be sure to sic your small/med drones on the frigs early in case you need to warp out.

It seems that the new waves only spawn after you killed of last rat of a spawn. To be honest, it's too easy now for a raven pilot. Good isk though.

I may have not been entirely clear on this point. But once during the mission I popped the wrong BS early in a spawn and it brought in a second wave while most of the ships in the first wave were still present. Thus, I can say with certainty that the trigger is not always simply popping the last ship in a wave.

If you keep an eye on the rat names, you will never face more than 3 BS at a time. Agel Exta sucks now, completely harmless. I think even a HAC can fly it now .. have to try it in my Retribution :)

I declined this mission a few days ago, as it was the Angel kind. I dunno how hard it is, but I just heard it takes quite a while for Amarr to kill Angels with lasers.
