Tip #1:

Initial warpin will grab you aggro off the first set of NPC's, kill these off first, do not move when you drop out of warp. The second group will aggro the closer you get to the can, so start approaching the can and then stop once this group aggros you.

Third and fourth aggros come from that center group, again once you have killed the second group move closer to the can until you pick up aggro off 2 BS's and a couple of frigs/cruisers. then once done, finish off the rest

Tip #2

Destroy the first aggroing group then stay still, target the navy orion and destroy it, this will break up the aggro and will not aggro the other ships next to it. (Tested 7 times).

The Mission, formerly know as:
A miner's dream!!!
Grab a few friends (in Hulks) and share the wealth! You can't warp to your bookmarks, so having one or two people dedicated to hauling would be a good idea.not worth the efford anymore, barely 2 orca loads now.

800,000 Scordite (16x 50k-roids)
1,610,000 Veldspaer

The navy orion (Tip #2) has excellent resistance to kenetic even if you have bonuses, but is weak to thermal.

Note to miner's dream.. This is a LOT of ore to those not familiar.. several expert miners could take hours to clean it all out.

Destroying the Orion did complete the mission.
So for those who like farming missions be aware of that
-- BruceBlacky (2008-08-30 06:35:35)
I actually lost a CNR to the fact that usually the poster makes marks outside the shiptypes when they function as warpscramblers or webifiers.

Could the poster not make those edits to make the player more aware of those shiptypes, yes i know it states it in the overview on top of the page, but this is still a really good way to make one alert!.
-- ConTonkTen (2008-09-15 18:40:46)
After the initial aggro, I destroyed Orion, aggroing a few ships. The mission wasn't flagged as completed then. I then proceeded to destroy the ships in that group, the last of which was the frigate Elite Federation Libertus. Upon destroying that ship, the mission got flagged as completed.
-- KurosakiStrawberry (2008-12-02 10:03:35)
Dont start shooting before all the spawns show up, or you'll pull full aggro.
-- YoinX (2008-12-13 20:29:33)
Successfully completed very easily in a Dominix. The kernite is a long way away from the warp in point if you want to mine it... After DT the mission flags as complete, i.e. everything is gone including the 'roids and gate so difficult to farm this one.
-- Peon155 (2009-01-16 16:16:37)
It appears to me that the mission flags complete when you kill all of the 2nd spawn. Important to note when trying to farm the mission for mining.
-- BrietteStark (2009-05-19 10:23:31)
Just finishing up with a raven, done with extreme ease. For the 1st 2 waves, dont send ur drones after, they will get aggroed, but they wont target you, even if you recall your drones. Good insignia's in the wrecks, and pretty good salvage.
-- JaneOsiris (2009-06-14 22:56:39)
Ummm, nice tables. But does anyone else think there's more info there than there really needs to be ?
-- KhanaLoaris (2009-10-25 18:17:47)
Spawn 2 Contains +2 Federation Covinus ships ... Could be replacements to some other ships or actual additions ... Began looting before getting accurate count on Spawn 2 (as of 11/19/2009)
-- VengEnce (2009-11-09 09:02:47)
shooting at the navy orion did aggro other ships next to it.....
-- StrykeZor (2009-11-14 11:35:36)
Get rid of the tables, seriously no one cares about individual ship DPS, just total incoming DPS, and DPS of each group as aggroed. I've removed other extra damage information on other missions that gave less info. It isn't in the slightest bit helpful.
-- SyphurouS (2009-12-08 00:50:28)
Personally, I like the additional information on the tables. It isn't really a bonus for soloing, but I commonly run in groups, and did not know that the ships in this mission had 0 em on shield and 20 expl on armor. When doing this in a group I now know to have one ship with EM loaded and one with expl. - especially if we're using bombers or fast BS's with torps.

I also see some value in knowing which ship hits the hardest, as that will be my primary target while burst-tanking. A good example in addition to this mission, would be the angel ganza bonus room. The thermal cruise in there will catch you off-guard when you tank primarily expl/kin. The eveinfo site listed the cruise launchers' extreme damage, which was handy for figuring out "wtf just happened in there."

Please don't see this as arguement, as it's just an opinion from another point of view - I've wanted to see precise resists and damage outputs here for quite some time, and eveinfo does not seem to be kept current. One thing I would change, however, is the white background of the "totals" row at the table base, as it's almost unreadable in the IGB.

Perhaps moving the tables to the bottom of the page would allow the information to be available without adding complexity to the page-view for those such as SyphurouS that don't really need/want it.

Great mission, I completed this slightly differently due to the fact I just nearly lost my raven. If you fly closer to the can to attract more aggro (as in tip #1)you will get warp scrambled. When I tried to kill this ship I got nearly full room aggro.
This is how I did it in the end....
To start warp in and after 10sec all the ships will have appeared, only kill the aggro ships while flying away i.e. straight down my drones did not get aggro after 60km. Once you have killed inital aggro snipe the orion from max distance (for me 93km) once you have killed it and the couple of others that join it, go for next closeset group and then the next and so on until you have taken them all out. While you are doing this fly back to the can on low speed so you coinside your last kill with opening the can.
Final point, while the ship totals are interesting they don't help with the mission.

I completed it in a standard Raven set up but with Two T2 Thermal and One T2 Kinetic hardener. Never went below half shields, but did have 5 T2 drones to kill the frig's. No bounties but you do get nice tags and some nice 1mill plus guns, you also lose faction points because its Gallente.
-- HappyFanatic (2010-02-07 08:14:46)
I urge caution on this mission. Watch your aggro, I nearly lost my Navy Dominix due to me not watching what I was hitting.
Luckily I had a fleet of small drones to get rid of the Warp Scrambling frig that insisted on me sticking around.
-- NoodlesSeventwo (2010-03-09 05:14:04)
Aggroed the whole pocket with my Nightmare, tank barely held. The info on this page is useless.
-- NullVoid (2010-06-08 00:49:43)
"Aggroed the whole pocket with my Nightmare, tank barely held. The info on this page is useless."

I'm sorry, did you expect an entire pocket aggro on this mission to not almost overwhelm a shieldtanked T1 ship? Especially the Nightmare? While I didn't write the mission page, I would hardly say the information on this page is useless. The golden rule of EVE missions, IMO, is only aggro what you can handle. Obviously you bit off more than you could chew, and took it out on the writer(s) of the info.

Just saying that seems a bit rude and blame-gaming.
-- ForteEXE (2010-06-15 10:14:45)
I tend to agree w/ Forte

I found most of the info provided quite useful....for everyone else, as they say, take what you need and leave the rest....
-- KatyaTereshkova (2010-06-18 13:39:53)
Completed easily in T2 passive Drake in about an hour.
-- CrapOnu (2010-07-26 11:42:42)
Fairly easy in a Raven following the guidelines. Went out to 90 Km to snipe the Orion. The only problem I had was drone aggro, so I lost 3 hobs.
-- Odojoe1 (2011-01-05 22:36:08)
Omber and Kernite have been removed from this mission. Verified 2/2/2011
-- JimmyDoe (2011-02-02 17:55:35)
confirmed. miners dream is gone - here too! no more omber or kernite there
since incursion. thanks for again for a great update...
