Defera Invasion Zone - Hard Missions
The following tags have been nested in the wrong order: size, b, color, b
Four hard missionsare available in the Defera Invasion zone (talk to the NPCs). Nomen non est omen in this case, they are actually easy to do.

The difference to the easy and medium missions is, that you need a team of at least 3 people (from the same faction) to get the missions started and the hard missions will reward you with one Borg neural processor per mission.
The order of the following walkthroughs is also the order in which you´re doing the missions usually (remember: you´re in a Borg zone, outsmart them. Be efficient! You can do it!).
Oh, and don´t forget to equip a frequency remodulator. Just saying.
1. Temple: Uninvited Guests
Take the transporter to the temple and walk the short distance to the temple stairs.
One person - while the rest of the team is positioned at the bottom of the stairs - has to start the mission by activating the Preserver console at the top of the temple.

Preserver console.

First spawn point. Your team should wait here.
The first spawn point is at the bottom of the stairs (two groups of 8-10 Borg). Defeat them. A third group will spawn at the left.
Go up the stairs to the second (right stairs) and third (left stairs) spawn point. Defeat those groups as well. And also the four tactical drones (it´s easier than it sounds).
After defeating those Borg, go up the stairs to the plateau. In the middle there will be a group spawning, then at the right side of the building, then at the left side of the building.

The plateau.
The last group will spawn at the bottom of the top stairs. Defeat them. And wait a few seconds... grab your reward and move on to 2 (head NW).
2. Probe: Counter Offensive
If you´re lucky, then the mission has already magically finished with full rewards (that was a bug, no idea if it´s fixed now).
If you´re not so lucky, then one person of the team has to start the mission by activating the Borg node. This will spawn an assimilated Gorn, accompanied by a couple of drones (mostly medical, and I think four of them).

Assimilated Gorn. And Borg. Borg everywhere.

Come closer!
Pew pew them. Mission accomplished. Move on to 3.
3. Power Plant: Getting To The Bottom Of Things
Head NE to the entrance of the power plant. Go to sublevel 3. Choose one of the three chambers to start your mission by activating the Borg node.

In the chamber.
After interacting with the node, the force field in the middle of the room will be dropped, and an Elite Tactical Borg will be released, accompanied by a few drones. At the same time the entrance to the chamber will be blocked by another force field until the mission is accomplished. If you die: don´t respawn, you won´t be able to enter the chamber again. Wait for help.
Concentrate fire on the Elite Tactical Borg, which will retreat to the middle of the room (and again behind a force field) after reaching 50% health.
In the next stage, four heavy drones will take over the fight (in each corner of the room). After those drones are defeated, the Elite Tactical Borg will appear again, this time supported by three plasma mortars. Stay mobile, don´t get caught in the plasma fire of the mortars.

Elite Tactical Borg.

Plasma Mortars.
If you are not in a dps team, then concentrate fire on the ETB, if you are, then split up. Half of the team can fight the ETB, the other half can deactivate the force fields around the plasma mortars (and pew pew the mortars).
The Borg thought they were smart. You have been smarter. Mission accomplished. Wait a few seconds, grab your reward and move on to 4.
4. City: Knowledge Is Key
Go or transport to the city (head W). Once you´ve arrived at your destination, start the mission by activating the power node (upload a virus).

The alcoves. At the right side is the power node. Hack that thing!
Your first objective is to free newly assimilated Deferi (the strange acting ones) from their alcoves. Interact with them (F key). Fight any Borg that´ll try (of course) to disturb you.
The second objective is to assist partially assimilated Deferi to leave the collective. Shoot them. When their health is low enough, they´ll turn into friendly beings with no more intention to assimilate you. Beam them to a medical facility ( F key). Fight any Borg that´ll...
You did a good job! But it isn´t over yet. Fully assimilated Deferi will leave their alcoves now. And they have full intention to assimilate you. Kill them. It´s sad, but necessary. Oh, and fight any Borg that´ll...
You did it! Congratulations! :woohoo:
Those four missions won´t take longer than 15 - 20 minutes and will reward you with 240 fleet marks, 40 omega marks, 4 Borg neural processors and 4 pieces of random Borg ground gear alltogether.
