Pets can attack and pull them from buildings and trees I'm pretty sure.






Send in a combat droid, they can get everywhere. Mine even goes through the wall to get the lairs that get stuck under my house. just have it group, attack, then follow you as you move away and the mark comes out of hiding.





Tried that, doesn't always work. Sometimes the droid just sits there and looks at you funny. I wonder if I could start an attack on some random mob in the area, lead it over, and then do a spray shot. Would work in places like Yavin, Endor, and Dathomir, but not the other planets with all the low level junk that dies right away. Guess I could try a CDEF pistol for those... lol.

I thought the NGE couldn't be any worse than the CU, but I was wrong.

These missions are light years ahead of what the used to be. I ground out the Investigation line during the 'invisible mark' bug. This was before JTL, so you had to shuttle from Kaadara to Corellia first to get to Dath with the 10 minute shuttle waitsonly to find an empty waypoint were your mark was supposed to be. Horrible. You'd waste 30-45 mins for nothing.

I can't count the number of times that I've seen a "Fix the NPC missions Dev's" post. Either way, good luck all.

Just did my very first master bh mission...he was stuck in tree





Bring a camp with you. If the mark is in a tree, drop the camp, and the tree disappears.

Yes, too many bugged missions. There must be a way to program them toNOT start on water or at the end of the map. And yes you can land on your planet and see on the map to delete, thats bad anyway. And it has been like this for a looooooooong time. Poo system!

I ran 6 missions yesterday. 4 of them were in areas I could not attack them in. 2 had spawned in trees. (can't tell on the map that there's a tree there so the 500m thing doesn't work). One in a rock and the other wasa white con that never turned yellow so I couldn't attack him. It does get frustrating at times and for some reason they seem to happen in bunches for me. /shrug All you can do is abort mission and go pick up another one.

Spray shot doesnt work if it's stuck in a wall.


Are you using a droid that has range, or a pet that does kinetic damage? You need something that will melee I think.
