Hello,
does anyone know if the Angel Gold Tag that is needed for entering Angel Extravaganza lvl4 bonus room is being consumed upon entry? Used to be so in the past, but is it still now ?
TIA

its the diamond tag, and no its not consumed you only need one to run it over n over again, but if you do it with a buddie they need the tag 2

The tag used in the T3 AE missions (Palladium) is consumed each time you activate the gate. My understanding is that the T4 (diamond) tag is NOT consumed. It works like the T3 Sansha Silver tag for Massive Attack. 1 is all you need.

This is correct. ------------

Not yet bothered to destroy Stations in L4 missions, since I never got anything worthwhile from the ones I destroyed in the L3's. All I got sofar was some worthless ammo...

In the "secret" pocket of lvl 4 AE : faction loots in battle station (30k bane torp and 10k carbon L, load of ogre 1 too)
In the last pocket of lvl 4 GE : 10 or 20 ogre 1
In lvl4 Recon 2 of 3, mining building has a chance to drop faction ammo
Other battlestations are random as far as i know

Thanks. Unless it has a good drop rate, it's probably not worth my time, but hopefully anyone who takes the time will get something good. ------------

Hi guys , I never try the bonus level on AE level 4... is it soloable or do you need to warp out a few times ? or maybe have a logistic ship ?

Soloable? A friend of mine soloed it in his CNR, but he had to warp out once. Usually we run it as a pair. I tank it in my Domi while we kill everything. It's worked for us several times.
Got my first Domination drop off this mission - nothing special - a Domination Adaptive Nano Plating. I've run it about a dozen times without getting anything,so I was glad it finally dropped a faction module. Pity it wasn't the Domination Stasis Webifier... maybe next time. ------------

YET ANOTHER POST ABOUT THIS.
The bonus room of lvl 4 ae is soloable ina decent setup cnr, not gona be cheap or easy anyhow. the retirement home AND the battlestation have a low chance of faction loot, best i ever got was a domination warp disrupter (that is having done the mission over 50 times).
For the tags: Lvl 4 AE needs Angel Diamond, not consumed. Guaranteed 6m isk overseer effects drop from retirement home. 2x chance of domination drop.
Lvl 4 GE needs Guristas Diamond, not consumed. Drops DG faction loot once in a while.
Lvl 3 GE needs Guristas Palladium, not consumed. One bs, never had any faction loot.
Lvl 3 AE needs Angel Palladium, and the tag is consumed every time. Has to be the hardest lvl 3 out there if u do it, 2 BS present. Dropped a domi web once.

you can solo it with raven, just need to know what to shot first so you reduce the damge ASAP and to bring lots of cap boosters.
If i post something smart it represent my corp and alliance all other posts are my feeling/ideas only and do not represnt the rest |

You don't need CN ravens and billion isk setups to do the AE bonus lvl. Worked perfectly fine in my T2 raven. Just make sure you have a more or less cap substainable tank and start moving away from the ratts as soon as you enter. And kill the close range BSs and the BCs first.
Anyway, done it 10 times and have yet to see a faction drop, but it's worth it anyway. The Torps and the effect is worth 13 mill alone, not to mention the bounty and salvage. Sig removed. Please email us at [email protected] if you would like to know why. -Conuion Meow

The bonus room is definitely soloable in a regular raven with a T2 shield tank.
Personally, I kill the cruise batteries ASAP as they seem to do either em or therm damage, which you're not tanked for. Meanwhile, have your drones kill the frigs / hacs while you're running away from the rats. Once they're down, it's not too bad.
Also, you need the diamond tag, and it definitely will let a gang mate come in with you even if they don't have the tag (tried it last night so a corpmate could start salvaging while I killed the battlestation). Tag is not consumed.

Nathan
Its soloable even with t2 gear.
My alt solos it with three hardners, though he had oficer setup. The extreme case is to fit 2 invul II, 1 Explosive II and a XL booster T2, fitted with a cap recharger, t2 amp and 5 Cap flux 2 and in theory you could tank the full aggro.
Of course, 5 Cap flux's is a pretty low damage way to do missions, but means you can run that t2 XL booster forver. Personally, I would use at least 2-3 Navy BCU's to kill off the spawn quickly. If you align out as soon as you warp into bonus stage, you will have 0 problems in a raven or cnr, as you can instapop scramblers that mwding to you and if you align away from hostiles, its a peice of cake in even a crappy t1 setup. Gist booster pilots can laugh this mission mostly :)
Just watch out of the second wave of hostiles. Unless you have a gist tank like me, t2 XL booster is not enough, but thats ok - you killed the scramblers in 1 volley each as they mwded to you, so you can insta-warp out at your leisure as you would be aligned of course :) --

Nathan
I think the thing about the bonus lvl are the myths surrounding it.
I left this alone for ages thinking it was nigh on impossible because of the stories I had heard about it. Like insta popped ships for the first one to enter the pocket. The reality of course is it is very doable so long as you research a bit about it and take some precautions.
tank I had on my raven was
1x XLSB T2 should do 1x explosive hard 1x Kinetic hard 1x Invun field 1x Shield boost amp 1x cap recharger T2
If you use T2 you might have to warp out, but like Lord WarATron said kill the frigs first and it won't be a problem.

That's the same faction drop I got. The 10K of Large Projectile Ammo and the 30k of Bane torps are nice - as are the tritanium bars from all those wrecks. Edit:spelling

On AE bonus room, the first thing you should pop is the the Cruise Missle Batteries. The 3 of those will hit you for 300+ per shot @70 therm resist. After that its the BCs/scram frigs. --------------- This sig has been censored in fear of recieving the ban hammer... |

I didn't see any other comments on this, so a slight correction: the tag, once used, unlocks the gate for a short time. As long as any gang mates activate the gate within that time (I believe 30 seconds or a minute), you only need one tag.

You can get one on the market, or they drop from belt rats, or you can sometimes get one in AE from one of the earlier rooms. I have personally never picked one up (I bought mine), but one of the guys I run missions with picked one up in Room 5 of AE the other day. ------------

I have ran AE dozens of times on my alt. Only once have I got the tag from the mission itself. But thankfully, the tag is not consumed so my suggestion is to buy one. Even if you pay 10mil for a tag, thats how much you make in that stage minimum in loot, bounties & Salvage --
