Escalation 1

On Warp In you hit an Newly Constructed Gate with

1 Battleship
3 Frigates
2 Loyal Frigates
6 Cruisers
3 Loyal Cruiser
1 True Sansha Battleship (if you're lucky)

Upon warping through the gate or destruction of the Shadow Serpentis BS, you might get the next escalation.

Escalation 2

You warp in next to a massive rock where there are a collection of Frigates, Cruisers and BattleCruisers with the potential of getting a Shadow Serpentis Battleship Rat.

3 Battleships
2 Frigates
4 Loyal Frigates
2 Cruisers
4 Loyal Cruiser
1 True Sansha Battleship (Targani Lopar)

Upon killing Targani Lopar you should recieve the next escalation.


Escalation 3

Initial warp-in puts you about 30km from the collection of Frigates and Battleships guarding a gate. After killing these you may fly through the acceleration gate. Behind there is a collection of foes similar to those in escalation stage 2

4 Battleships
4 BC
4 Cruiser
6 Loyal Frigates (web/scramble)
1 True Sansha Battleship (Raeton Kobryn)


Upon killing Raeton Kobryn you should recieve the next escalation.

Escalation 4 (Final)

The "Warp To Location" from your journal will warp you to an Accelaration Gate. Once you warp in through the first gate you warp in around 30km from another gate with several rats in the first room. You will have several cruiser calss ships to kill in order to use the gate to the next room.

6 Elite Cruiser
5 BC


The second room will have 4 Battleships and one of them will be a True Centus Preacher, guarded by a bigger number of frigs (some of them elite scrambloing frigs). When you kill this you will have completed the plex and in the wreck you will find a 17th OPE an hopefully some nice Centus A-Type Loot.

True Centus Preacher
3 BS
12 Loyal Frigs
22 Frigs

Escalation ends with a popup massage: You have always been a bit ambivalent to having a day job and the employers you knew have more often than not been bastards. This one was no exception, leaving without a trace and no sight of the "billion ISK reward". You curse yourself for being so gullible.

Difficulty rating

  • I used a Passive Shield Tanked Ishtar with a Basilisk and a DPS Drake to clear the plexes quickly.
  • Solo'd every stage in active tanked nighthawk.
  • Initial Serpentis Fortress plex done easily with full passive tanked Drake and dps Harbinger, both full T2 fitted.
  • Solo'd every stage in a passive drake.
  • Solo'd every stage in a active-tanked Ishkur. Hard, but possible if you have the time.
  • Solo'd every stage in an omni-tank tengu. Final escalation has very high DPS.
