Going to have to sound off in this as well. My 1st run at the crate, got to the spot, got two differet messages, first that the mission was complete, second that I had located where teh beacon had last been. Nothing around. Start my sweep. Found a downed ship, nothing around it other than blurrgs. Get on bike search more. no other ships around. come back to the ship I had seen, Look a bit more, and the husk despawns and I am left standing with nothing to show for it.

Fix the WHIP quest... Or find a mean for people to complete the quest !


I have 5 branch, the Whip one would be the last before Jedi Initiate. I can't take another or I need to wait3 cycles to be able to take a branch in the Enhanced Reflex where I have already XPedthe whole branch (XP for Vehicular controle is already done for me).


I don't want to wait 9 weeks, I don't want to make another 1M250k FS XP... I complete my quest or I cancel, I have no other choice.


Thanks for attention

I agree with Akasha... this is VERY frustrating... Why couldn't this quest made like the patrol quest, so we could reset the mission easy

Better giving the unfamous container to people requesting one with the ticket system... We could complete the task.

Well, my guildmate and I have joined the ranks of the borked. I am doing the crafter mission and 20 minutes after accepting it, I get the message that "Crafting mission failed" and it's gone from my quest journal although I had already made some of the ten components needed. And the droid I give them to in the village still has the correct tally, so what the heck?


My guildmate is doing Whip's stuff...she got screwed on the first mission. Followed the advice here, had all the tickets...whipped on over to Endor and another person's ship spawned within 500m of her mission and that person was successful. There was another ship farther away, but no sith, no crate, no love...that ship eventually despawned. Weird thing is, the first ship has remained static for over an hour with no new spawn of supplies or sith.


When does the beta testing for SWG ever end?

Here we go .... Day 3 of this screwed up quest and the threads on this bug, in here, FS forum, and Jedi forum grow ever larger. Yet here, where it counts, where you would expect a developer to at least acknowledge that 100's if not 1000's of players are now suffering at the hands of this problem, and make a reply or a post in this forum to say that it's being worked on and an ETA. After all, a fast-track workaround is a simple interactive conversation with Whip to say "I couldn't complete the mission" and have him give a new one. If that bugs, then at least you can restart and keep trying (ala how Bounty Hunter missions were like for 9 months or more), until you find one that works.

It looks like about 40% of the Whip's mission takers are getting bugged. No real way to tell, but that's what I saw in the village last night (9/23).

Yes, I always pre-buy my tickets.

No, I don't waste any time.

My datapad was at 38%, my inventory at 70%.

The wp, not the 0,0 one, but when you actually land on Endor (-2085/-1464) is right over a river. Maybe this is the problem?


What this quest needs is the ability to cancel mission with Whip and get a new wp/run. You've got 3 weeks to fix it. I've got 1.3 million FS xp waiting on you.


Edit:

Also note that I always write my wps down. This does not help in this case. I searched for hours afterwards and only ran into the spawns for other players.

Hmmm - all servers are down including Chimaera which doesn't normally go down this time of day - and a patch is being loaded.


Is it possible a fix is coming?
