-Mission challenge levels will be the group challenge level value. If a player's group challenge level matches or exceeds a particular creature's challenge level then the creature is listed on the mission terminal.

-Note: Not all creatures spawned on a planet will appear on mission terminals. There is some type of list that is stored and if creatures are not on that list then they cannot spawn as a mission.

-m10d	One of my clients is headed for Iskallon and wants to commission a custom sonic weapon. This rifle will need a specialized amplification chamber. I've got the specs for it right here, but I don't have the time to assemble all the parts. If you think you can lend a hand, I'd reward your service. Pick up the components from my supplier.
+m1t	Exterminate these pests!

-m10p	Iskallon is a water world, I believe. Makes sense. These sonic weapons are much more effective underwater. Here are the parts. When you're finished assembling the part deliver it to the customer. Good luck with it.

-m10r	Excellent work, citizen. I think this will aid my mission rather well. Tell the engineer I'll deliver a status report when I get back.

-m10s	Sounds like you did a fine job. I've deposited your fee, and I think you'll find it quite generous. I hope you look me up in the future if you need work.

 Notes:
-m10d - This is the mission description displayed in mission terminals or on the mission if a player examines the mission. This is also given as npc dialogue when a player receives the mission from a mission giving npc.
+m1o - This is the mission description displayed in mission terminals or on the mission if a player examines the mission. This is also given as npc dialogue when a player receives the mission from a mission giving npc. The text indicates how many creatures that the player must kill to complete the mission.
-m10p - This is the response given by the npc that the player picks up the components and schematics from. This is issued once the player has successfully conversed and interacted with it.
+m1t - This is the mission title as seen on the terminal or on the mission details once the mission has been accepted by the player.
-m10s - This response is not used in game, but was probably intended as a response given by a mission giving npc once the player finished that particular assignment and came back to it for another mission.
