So, I thought: w00t! A Battleship at the end :)

Alas, I was in a Dominix myself, but for me there was no BS waiting in the last pocket. Also no BS after I killed all the other ships and all structures (except for the Officer's quarters, I wasn't sure if that would be a good idea).

Did this in a Sleipnir (as I have done before) and got a Gist General (431k BS) spawn when I killed the last ship in the second pocket. I would guess that it is just completely random.
-- NewbieNed (2008-07-24 23:25:09)
Forgot to add - BS had no real loot but 1mil in salvage.
-- NewbieNed (2008-07-24 23:26:47)
Made the Mission with a Myrmidon (BC) and i had the BS at the End. It was a Gist Commander (375k Bounty). BTW - i have a standing of 9.6 to the agent.
-- HemiCuda (2008-08-04 17:34:00)
in pocket 1 the
2x Elite Frigates (Arch Gistii Nomad/Ruffian) web/scram

used a target painter not a web/scram on me
-- ShaunJeffries (2008-09-27 18:33:25)
in pocket 2 the
1x Cruisers (Gistum Crusher)

was a "Gistum smasher" and it also used Target Painting
-- ShaunJeffries (2008-09-27 18:35:54)
Did this in a Drake. After finishing off the rats I got General worth 430k but no loot.
-- CalRev (2008-12-14 11:40:04)
Did this in a Cyclone (BC) and I also encountered a Gist Commander (375k Bounty).
-- DenmarkVesey (2009-02-14 11:32:51)
Had the Gist Commander before but this time no BS.

Ships used: Drake + Maelstrom
-- MedWay (2009-02-17 05:24:53)
done this mission 3 times now with no battleship appear.. and im in a dominix. How disappointing.

Be aware - I tried to tackle all of pocket 1 at same time by shooting the light missile battery. I quickly had to warp out as the force was overwhelming.. Not recommended to take the lot on in 1 go (was in Dominix)
-- WebbHost (2009-03-25 15:43:52)
has anyone actually tried attacking the quarters?
-- WebbHost (2009-04-15 11:20:43)
nomad and ruffian both painted me but agrod full first room with no problems on tank, using perma t2 domi.
room 2 again no problems, altho no BS :(
-- AshScriv (2009-05-17 11:03:56)
Did the mission in a Battleship. Upon destroying the final Battlecruiser (and even though a cruiser was still left) there spawned a Gist General. The headquarters did not spawn the mission objective until this battleship was destoyed.
-- JohnnyNeumonnic (2009-09-09 00:04:53)
Blitz: This mission should be able to blitz this was: go straight for the jump gate in pocket 1, jump. go straight to the angel officer's quarters and pickup the reports. Maybe you need to kill all rats in pocket 2 before you can open the angel officer's quarters.
-- HaKre (2009-09-29 13:41:31)
I had one destroyer left when Gist Commander spawned. 375k bounty. I was in a Ferox and passive shield tanked the whole group at once.
-- MorkFel (2009-10-21 13:16:27)
I went in in an armor-tanked Hurricane but had neglected to switch out my Thermal for an Explosive hardener (Kinetic was in place). Definitely not a good idea if you pull full aggro in the first room! I had to warp out for the first time in a very long while. :)

Don't get me wrong, though: this is not a very hard mission at all if it's done right.
-- LiviaCatarella (2009-12-27 18:16:42)
200k ISK loot + salvage
2.4 mio (10^6) bounty
done i a faction Cruiser -> after last ship in Pocket 2 one BS spawn directly at the The Officer's quarters
done in 30 min
-- ValaraSeumic (2009-12-30 05:43:42)
In pocket 2 I met a battleship. I entered with a battlecruiser for the fifth time or so, and this was the first BS I've seen here. I think it spawned when I have destroyed almost all of the other ships.
-- Everen1 (2010-01-03 14:05:01)
HaKre's blitz suggestion is correct. However, you do have to kill the rats in Stage 2 (you can leave the sentries).
-- LiviaCatarella (2010-01-23 11:25:38)
You guys are joking right??? You had to warp out in the first room?... OMG! Did you forget to turn on your tank? Forget to fit your ships? What? I dont understand... i did this 3 times in one night in an active shield drake, never went below 95% shields and had the WHOLE ROOM including batteries and towers on me.... it was so easy it was laughable. (NO BS any time in the last room)
Shield res - em 37, therm 49, kin 62, exp 69.
Shield boost 529.09 every 1.7 seconds.
7x T2 Heavies Scourge Fury, 5x T2 Hornets.
*wonders if the rats were nerfed when i wasnt looking.....*
-- IgnatzMax (2010-05-29 14:54:43)
Completed in Passive Shield Tank Arty Hurricane (BC) - no NPC Battleship spawn in 2nd room -
The 2 Angel Sentry Towers in 2nd room dropped loot
100x Iron Charge M (Hybrid Ammo)
100x Proton L (Projectile Ammo)
-- DeMichaelCrimson (2010-06-01 23:44:28)
Did this is a Ferox battlecruiser.

Killed ships before the missile batteries and a Gist General battleship spawned worth 431,250 isk in bounty.
-- LordTappen (2010-07-25 21:36:43)
Made in Dominix, easy, no General in 2nd room.
-- MarcusDeadgray (2010-08-05 11:19:04)
Completed in a Rifter, by passed ships in the first pocket, the rest gave no trouble - mission rated easy. No general found in pocket two.
-- Vis3 (2010-10-29 11:24:38)
I got this mission, blitzed it, did another mission, then got this one again.

When I went back in the spawns from the first one I ran were still in there. With an Afterburner you can still outrun the DPS with a halfway decent tank though.

Just a heads up.
-- ProgHouseDJ (2010-11-29 23:12:17)
Ran yesterday in a Tengu and a battleship class "Gist Commander" spawn after killing group 2. However, today I got this again and the battleship failed to spawn.
-- SinxarKnights (2011-01-14 14:49:22)
Ran it in a 6 gun Loki, with drones. Never deployed the drones, had no problems.
