Just learn from your mistakes each time and you'll get there. I think it takes most people 3 tries on average. Took me 4 (im slow).


Good luck and let us know when you get it done.

You can do it with three without any problems although you have to be willing to die once.

I was thinking about doing the ER - Ranged Defense Quest instead, and wait until next cycle, when I have some time to prepare, to do the CP - Melee Accuracy Quest. Is the ER quest hard? Do I have enough time before phase 4? Thanks for your advice.

Look for guides on forum... its a rather easy quest once u know how... Good luck

We needed 3 attempts. Tried with 8 players - failed! Tried with 4 players - failed! Tried successful with only 2 players! Get all the buffs (doc, dancer, musician) first - wear full compo & PSG. Do not fight against the whole horde of Sith Thugs, try to pull them out one after another. Pull only ONE Thug each time while mounted on the swoop. Try to get the Thug into an infight then, ranged they are killers - in close combat they are just noobs

Thats how it worked for me...

Thanks for the advice guys. I think that tonight I will go back with the same group, not use any area attacks, and bleed them one at a time with health shot2 and stand back and take them one at a time..A question though....once you kill them all will they respawn?

This is how you do it.


1) Take out turrets outside base (last couple times i did this, they weren't there...not sure if a bug or not)
2) Disable Shield
3) Kill 1 sith at a time, luring them away from others (recommened distance 100m). Person who disabled shield only has to help kill 5 sith. They respawn in each wave so you arent making it easy on yourself to continue past 5.
4) With overhead map on, observe how the sith de-spawn and spawn. While they are de-spawned, kill the front gate. They will appear quickly, so you may have to wait a couple of waves to accomplish this.
5) With Gate Gone, duing a de-spawned time, Drive speederbike into the base, and knock out the back gate, go inside the tent and use radial on commander to capture.
6) During next de-spawned time, burst run out of the base and being walk to the village. My experience tells me that the commander doesn't follow burst run all the time, especially if you have good terrain navigation skill modifiers.


You can have a few people to help you with the single thug killing in 3) and for the escort back in 6). If your friends don't mind dying, they can take out the gate and turret for you. Just make sure they don't lure the thugs to where you are sitting.


If grouped, 2 people can do this. 1 person would do #2 and the other person would do #5 Once they start their task, they can't die.


Hope this helps


If you are organized, you can have the commander taken out of the base in 15-20 mins, giving you plenty of time

Read the FAQ, thought I'd be OK with me (Triple Master) and a buddy (M. Commando) got to the base, got the frequency, got the remote, just brought the shields down, and we both got wiped out by the 7 or8 sith guys with 60-80% resists on everything. Didn't know I needed a huge group for this one.

Another trick - after the shield goes down - run your group inside the base - take down gates antennna etc...go to where the commnader will eventually appear.


Aggro 1 thug at a time from inside the base (the others generally will not follow you in) until you kil 5 - the commnader spawns and you are already there with him! Escort him out either by waiting until the Thugs despawn or destracting them with the other group members...

OK just ran this again, and this time I got slaughtered. I was trying the bleed method from outside of the base...I was too close to them and we both got aggroed again. I saw them come out of the base, should I try to go in from the other side?

I have done this as recently as this phase, and my partner and I both got messages that said we needed to kill X more sith, and then a message that we killed 5 and can capture the commander now.


Also, when he got the quest to lower the shields, he died and could not get the shield lower quest again. We switched quests, got the remote for another base 2k away, and planned this time. He used conceal shot, and got one thug away at a time, and about 5 of us TKMs proceeded to give him a whooping. we did this 5 times and he went and got the commander.


Neither of us died the second time while all but me and two others out of 8 died the first time including our Doc. When we both got back to the village, we both got two crystals as a reward.

The method I outlined above worked all 4 times that I used it.


The other 2 times we tried to kill the 5 thugs.


It worked then and unless things have changed it should work now.


Once the shield dropper clones he will get a message that the commander has spawned.


Besides what does he have to lose trying it the way I described? Give it a shot, it should work.


My first partner and I got the teal ls crystal and the mind buff crystal when we succeeded. My second and subsequent partners only got the teal ls crystal. Using this method the "Kill 5 sith thugs" portion of the quest was still listed as incomplete until phase 4 when I killed 5 sith thugs with the 400 other people outside the village. I got the rewards and unlocked the branch so it was a success afaic.
