Killing The Factory Station is a -2.4% standing hit as well as you will take a -2.4% standing hit for killing the bunkers.CategoryLevel4
In the final Pocket
Take out the Orion first, leave the sentries alone as attacking them may draw aggro from everything else. Take out the Interceptors next since they web. From the beginning I was moving away from the structure to give me some room. After the Interceptors take out the 4 officers which do very little damage anyway, but they do shoot lots of defenders.
After this you are left with the Megathrons and remaining Interceptors (which will web, but I never came close to having to warp out).
The bottom line is that the Megathrons and last 5 Interceptors did not aggro until I attacked them. Attacking the sentries earlier may aggro them as well as attacking anything other than the Orion at the beginning.
Structure dropped 1,000 Planetary Vehicles (plus several other goodies) for me and most of the bunkers in Area 2 dropped loot (not just ammo).
The station itself will soak up around 150K HP of damage. (228 torps, 676.8 damage each, ish).
32 Veldspar roids - 279049 Units
I did this quite easily in a Deimos blaster boat as all the enemies are very close to you, and the frigs, especially, go down very easily so you have little problems being webbed to start with. And the Deimos has an unbreakable tank in this sort of environment because of its very high resists. I didn't see any EM damage being thrown at me, but plenty of Widowmakers... so remember to bring your thermals ;)
if your second ship is a drone you deploy, they will attack it (or them..)
Destroyed Group 1 with Sentrys, then agro'd group 2 and sent out Ogre's and went to AB to tractor beam range for the wrecks. When I got to around 20km away from Group 3 then they agro'd me.
Luckily my tank held pretty easily on my Dominix with Dual True Sansha Large Reppers and 1 Therm (T1) and 2 Kinetic Hards (T1).
I did have 1 T1 Aux Nano Pump and 2 T1 CCC's on.
