LOL... cool enough. I hadn't tried it that way. All the forum info I'd read said that both people had to survive the mission to get their rewards, although if the person dropping the shield died, the person leading the Commander could still complete his part of the mission. Kudos to you for discovering this piece of info. Sounds like you did it the hard way... /salute

Yeah, but if the person who drops the shield dies, he fails his part of the mission. The other player still can complete his portion if he returns the commander to the village, but to sacrifice one's own part of the reward is a bit harsh.

This is incorrect. The commander spawns after you've killed five thugs.

In my experience the commander won't spawn until you clone. There is some dispute on this. To find out for sure lay there until your partner is inside the tent. If after a little while the commander hasn't spawned, clone.
Either way it is the easiest way to do this mission. Some people are just adverse to dying and cloning to complete this mission. Even on my last success in a group of 15 the shield dropper died so we wouldn't have to fight the sith.
You are wrong (partly). The commader spawns in two different ways.
1) You kill the 5 thugs.
2) after the person who dropped the shields dies.
Don't tell someone they're wrong until you've tried both methods.
Go back and read my former posts. I outlined a method above that worked every time I attempted it.
Again I caveat that this works unless things have changed since last time phase 3 hit. Since there have been no posts stating any change at all from last time, it is reasonable to assume that the method has some merit and is worth a try. The guy has already attempted killing the 5 thugs multiple times and as he has nothing left to lose and only a few days left to complete this mission I suggest he give my method a try.
The person that dies still unlocks melee accuracy. He also gets both crystals. At least I did the first time I finished it.
You lose nothing from doing it by dying. Nothing.
Your quest log will list the mission as incomplete but you can train melee accuracy. When phase 4 hits you will get a message that you failed your mission. Igot the message(and have read of others who did also) but at that time I already had 2 boxes of melee accuracy trained. My quest log only updated to complete after I helped kill 5 thugs in the phase 4 defend the base quest.
I don't know any other way to say it: Both people unlock melee accuracy and get both crystals by doing it this way (assuming neither of you has finished this mission before).

WOO! I cant believe I finally did it. I used the distract method and I was the one who had to capture the captain...I did have to feign death cause they killed my partner too fast but i just sat around till they despawned...took out the gate and walked in. I'm on dial up and I got disconnected about 1200m outside of the village but I just reconnected and when I loaded up there was a dead sith guy at my feet.
but I love FD it saved my butt.
