Hi!
Im wondering if it is worth doing the bonus stage of the level 3 version of guristas extravaganza.
Im using a Drake with 7 heavy missile launchers and my two issues are:
A) I have a battleship staying at 50k range whilst my heavy missiles can only reach around 40k.I tried approaching but I am not fast enough, so short of having to warp out to fit an afterburner I have no idea how I am supposed to destroy it.
Its a Pith Dismantler). Does it drop any loot worth worrying about?
B) The war installation takes a silly amount of heavy missiles to destroy (1800 ish). Is this worth the hassle? What kind of loot can I expect to see dropping? Bearing in mind this is the level 3 version.
Thanks for any info in advance! =)

Nope, i would just pass.. It will probably drop a siege launcher I and a few more crap, dont think thats worth killing a bs with heavy missiles. And about the war installation, never tried destroying it, altho i heard the level 4 bonus room war installation can drop some faction mods.

The bonus is a waste of effort on the level 3, have wasted alot of missiles and time on the war installation and never had anything good at all from it.

A drake shouldnt have any problem taking out any BSs in missions. Thats not a special BS, either, a lot of them like to orbit at 50km, so its good to get your skills up so your heavies reach that far. I think with velocity and flight time skills both at 2 you can reach over 50km, and thats a pretty fast train.
I always run my drake with an AB in missions, anyway. Whats in your midslots? I have AB/invul/2 faction hardener/2 LSEs and I tank everything in L4s just fine.

Ive got 2 large shield extenders + 4 resistance amps depending on the rats. I dont have any problem tanking the bonus stage at all, no warp outs etc. My question was simply if it was worth doing or not. I will check out the skills to increase my missile range, thanks for the tip.

Get both range related skills higher than 1 would be a good start. With 3 in both skills you get approx 60K distance using scourge

The Level 3 version is not worth it because to get inside you need a fairly rare (expensive) tag, which is consumed upon entry. You won't make much more than the tag is worth, unless you get a very lucky Domination drop (which could happen).
The Level 4 version is worth it, because you can reuse the tag repeatedly.
