The sith blow the ship up if u fight them too long.


You dont have to fight them at all, I just rode over ship on my swoop for last 4 missions when i realised thats all u needed to doand system message comes up "Quest datapad updated" or whatever, so i take crate back to whip.


Plus on endor I only looked for it in daylight and set viewing distance on max. This way i could see ship and by time id drove over it often sith would just start spawning behind me and only get a few harmless shots off.


I spent time on dant grinding till daylight came on endor.


Re ship location they were all within 300m of origonal waypoint, dont try to hard seems to be the key.


Hope this is of some help

Ok, Ive tried 4 Whip missions tonight and NONE of them produced a downed ship. There is no friggen way that someone killed the missions each time so rule that out. What a friggen waste of time! Ive traveled back and forth from the Village to Endor. Thats 14,000 M per try. What a joke. Oh, and the last time it was in phase 2 I couldnt do the Whip missions 'cause it had bugs then too. SOE get off your @sses and fix this.

And no Im not whinning, Ive been playing since week 3 and put up with a lot of shlt and never complained (except when they were gonna nerf vendors). This is ridiculous.

PS: I work in the game industry and I know how lazy everyone involved can be. Get to friggen work!






Works fine, its just really really long.


I found mine were all 200 - 300 m from wp.

U must be one unlucky f***er. I did these missions, I had to do seven in total as one was bugged (and that was my fault as I carried the mission over a server reboot). All the others worked fine


oh well

Yes I did 8 runs to complete it. One time I died and the other one the crate simply vanished and reappeared after I completed all 6 runs...I play on Naritus so if anyone wants my extra crate, though I doubt it will be of any help.

Jubilee you have to scout the area for about 5-8 minutes before a ship will spawn. Circle the waypoint using a 80 to 150 meter radius. Guessing on the radius.


I had absolutely no problems doing this mission. Remember the wp will not appear until you land on Endor. You also dont have to fight the Sith-just get close enough to the downed ship and you will receive a message mission accomplished..then just head to Dath and converse with Whip. You will have to do this a total of 6 times.


This is by far the easiest FS Quest I have done.

DUDE YOU ARE A JOKE. NEXT TIME BEFORE YOU START CRYING ON THE FORUMS READ WHAT THE MESSAGE TELLS YOU WHEN YOU ARRIVE AT THE WAYPOINT.

It has been rectified,just use overhead map when searching within a 300Mish radius for a green rectangular shape,on the first phase 2 didnt have to kill the siths,since resource was dropped in invent automatically

5-8 minutes?


Mine all spawned almost immediately. In fact on one run, i got the 'u have arrived at waypoint' message followed almost immediatelly by 'mission successul' because it had spawned beneath me! Rest of the time I went out 250m and circled and always found it before a complete lap. In any case the mission works fine, its just dull.


It's a pity more missions aren't like the one where you need to find the base waypoint, then take down the shields and blow the base. That one was pretty tough and encouraged you to group, even adding a better reward for doing so (the mind buff crystal). Made all the long term members of my guild remember how good SWG was in the first few months when there was an element of danger in hunting!

Thanks for all your advice and criticism. I still believe this mission still has some bugs. I was a little buzzed and pissed when I wrote that but I promise you I ran a spiral pattern up to 500m from the waypoint with my overhead map on and these missions weren't there. I think it may be because there was so many creature spawns around. I tried wacking all of them on 2 occasions and only got more lairs and no downed ships. This was on my last 2 missions so I did have some idea what was going on.

I remember that these were bugged the last phase 2 and it kinda set me off. I think the issue with creatures is entirely different.

Sorry if I pissed you off.

Cheers!

lol....why did u run a spiral patter? all you had to do was pop your overhead map...and then look for the rather large retangular yellow object......yes...it was that easy...didnt even fight any siths....

Have any of you lost the supply crate? On one mission I picked it up but later it was gone. I am sure I did not delete it. However, I died once after I picked up the crate before returning it. Can that have caused it? Mission was also gone from the crystal.
