ill post here what i posted on another thread and hope somethingnwil be done


ive tried this quest 14 times


thats 28 hours mininum from the time getting the remotes(half usless like i get 10 omikron but no rho which is closest base!)


and i take out the turrets using a probot droid which works gr8. but the commander WIL SIMPLY NOT FOLLOW U, i was told to simply do it again and look at the forums by csr, they dont give a dam. really ive sent 3 tickets so far and everyone said the SAME macroed text saying visit the forums and we are sorry. this is my last unlock for jedi, there is nothing left in this game for me to do becuase all the best stuff is camped by stupid idiots and exploiters so if i dont get this done ill simply go becuase im fed up as it is, this is not fun, its chaos

If you are melee based, and the commander loses LOS for as little as 10m he attempts to return to the camp. which means running him down and attempting to use the follow me command

"Follow me" command? What is that syntax?

So come on Baciacca and Tiggs, just tell us all to go jump in a lake already. We keep seeing that maybe something might be done, then no words for over a week? I really would hate to think this is the way you guys are going to act towards the people that PAY your paycheck. I am very dissappointed in the whole SOE and SWG team. From teh Devs to the CSR's to the coorespondents. The whole community has been ignored! I would just like a word as to why every single person involved with SWG has turned a deaf ear to the community. Why won't you at least tell us that hey this is the way it will be deal with it or get stuffed or what ever you want to say, but silence is just unnacceptable!



Shame on all of you guys! What did your mother teach you when you were growing up? I believe that the golden rule still applies intodays society and it should apply one the web as well. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." If you don't know what that means simply it means that you treat people like you want to be treated. But then again maybe they are doing the rule, they don't talk to us and they don't want us to talk to them. Problem solved.



Please SOE and SWG teams, group up and become adults and talk to the community. Quit acting like children and hiding in the closet.

Wishful thinking....







July 21 Hotfix



  • Sith Base turrets range decreased to 75m and will no longer shoot through terrain.

  • Sith Commanders walking speed has been increased. (thus making all bases possible)

  • Melee Accuracy base spawn has been increased from every 2 hours to every 45 minutes.









And the reality...



July 27 Hotfix:



  • Turrets can no longer be attacked by player pets or droids to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging and exciting.

  • Increased DPS (to 1000 damage/shot) and range (to 12000m) of turrets to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging andexciting.

  • Removed all bases from the Southern quadrant of Dathomir to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging andexciting.

  • Put Sith Shadow Commander on a 24h spawn timer (like Axva Min, the NS queen!) to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging and exciting.

  • Fixed line of sight issues with the Sith Shadow Commander following players. The Commander will now instead randomly attempt to escape to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging andexciting.

  • Sith Shadow Commander will now randomly set up a basic camp and sit down to take a five minute nap on two random occasions throughout the escort. We, of course, did this to make the Phase 3 Melee Accuracy quest more challenging andexciting.

I understand this, but since the first of this post there has been no word at all from any source whatsoever, except from the players of the game. I f they have told him to drop the issue, at least let us know they said this, or will he be banned? I am sorry if he is taking heat, but it seems like we hear from him once, and then no more.


Sorry if this offends, but apparently he is the only one that can talk to the dev's, or amI wrong and trhey actually do read these forums. I don't know why don't you tell me how that goes seeing as how you want to -snip- me.



Flame on guy, I would just like to get some feedback from anyone who counts.

The quest is strange - no doubt. I completed it on one character on day 1 of phase 3 and with my other character I have failed about 5 times now because the Commander just stops following. I kept him at under 10m at all times and walked extremely slowly on slopes and edges but the line of sight kept breaking. I didn't do the escort on the successful mission with my other character that unlocked the branch but I watched my partner closely and the Commander didn't seem to have any problem to follow my partner. Maybe it has something do with character height (maybe you need to get lucky and get a really tall Commander to spawn?...though I'm not sure if the guy looks the same all the time or not)? Clothes? Type of weapon equipped? I don't know... but I can't think of a good reason why the one successful mission went so well and why the Commander just can't seem to follow my other toon.

Baciacca is a volunteer who devotes his time here. He pays for the game, same as you, and gets no compensation from SOE. If you're going to launch a tirade, at least make sure you launch it at the correct people. Baciacca has brought this up to the devs through his channels more than once. If they do not respond to him, there is little that he can do about it. It lies with the Dev's now to sort it out or not.

IMHO this is so hard so people can't finish fs and go jedi, otherwise it makes no sense that any rational being would think it can be done. After 2.5 hours of finding right base and getting 3.5k from fs village he commits suicide. Thanks Bariacca for your wishing to help, but I really believe this was done on purpose. *sigh* Glad I'm jedi already I was helping a guildie.

Reasons for thinking it's hard on purpose:

1) Why would a captured sith commander have a rifle? Answer, to slow him down with weapon encumberance.
2) Why can't we take him in vehicle? Because we could finish without any trouble.
3) SOE has been saying for months there are too many jedi, so it follows they are gonna hamstring everyone trying to finish Fs village.

I try to be positive about this game but SOE is working overtime to ruin this game. Did LA cancel their contract? No support, no bug fixes, *sigh*

Tis not that tricky, managed to do this for a Lvl 61 dude using a droid. Neither of us had any medic either lol. The trick is to take out the first 2 turrets with a combat droid, lower the shields, then use the droid to take out the last turret, antenna and back gate. Kill the 5 sith, then use the droid to take out the front gate. Once that's down, the shield person agro's all the sith and runs away (any area attack will do ). Then the other bloke legs it in and gets the commander.
Would be useful if the damn commander actually walked faster than a snail tho

I am furious, I am outraged.


I am not gonna do shat about it. Only Fuggin' thing i could do is quit, but that doesnt HELP anything
that would be the same SORRY solution that the devs are falling on. pff


The only MAJOR problem of the multiple problems with this mission
is the TOTAL apparent, palpable LACK of recognition CSR,DEVS, any SOE employee has for this.
Seven pages, No response... pff Its a damn shame


The second BIGGEST problem of this mission, is the slow walking.

IT IS SO OBVIOUSLY A BUG,

not a Jedi progression deterent,

not your fault for not killing sith in time... IT IS A BUG, not even on the known issues list, NOT EVEN IN THE HOLOCRON


I would challenge ANY SOE employee to do this mission and tell me if it was fun, or if it was enjoyable, or caused them to

feel a part of the Villages struggle, or if it seemed like it should be in a GAME.


Well I feel cheated, dirty and used. Thanks SOE, I guess thats what im paying for(logic and reason tells me this)


Gotta change my sig to "pff"
