At the Warren, its in a larger room that has droids and npc's, look for a table and search it. You go past the first big room, then into the room with many door's, take the door in front of you but to the right, you'll go down into the other large room. No you dont have to kill anything really, run to the room and search the table.

I hate to say it but it is well nigh impossible to do the destroy missions at this point. You have to be very lucky in order to make it happen. The only real hold up is getting the droid repaired. Getting past those SBDs is too tough. I see one of two ways (realistically)


1. You somehow run in there while you are still fully buffed, make it next to R2, and get incapped but not killed. This is rare after the last patch, it seems the SBDs DB just about everytime unless distracted. I have used pets and this worked once. Maybe teammates can help too but it takes about 20 tries to coordinate it correctly.


2. You get a group of doctors following each other with droid parts and rez each other as you go down. THat way you can keep leapfrogging, someone will be out of combat and be able to fix droid. I have never tried this but it seems plausible.


Somone said they were strong enough to survive electricity to hit switch, I have not tried this either so that may work. ALso, always have the droid part hotkeyed for quick drag and drop. Force of will may be a possibility as well.


I used to solo the vette daily, after the last round of changes I have yet to complete it once. While I understand they may not want people solo'ing the vette, with the huge amount of SBDs around, I dont see any way a group of 10 super soldiers could do it unless there is someone with kick ass area poison and it affects these guys. I dont know any combat medics so maybe try that out and post your results. All in all, the corvette is now just an armor eater.

I have to agree, Panther. I have gone to the neutral launch site and the rebel launch site and there just isn't anyone there anymore. There used to be groups going up on at least a semi regular basis but now it's just so tough on armor and in general that it seems the devs nerfing the soloing of it, also made it un groupable as well. I was with a group of 10 doing the assassination mission. By the time we actually got the target, no one had any buffs left and with the addition of higher level mobs db'ing more often, you can only get one shot in before you are dead and have to try to get all the way back to bridge. I have talked to some people that have said they don't even bother with it anymore because it's just too hard now and they aren't going to waste their armor and buffs in a futile attempt to do any of the missions.

The devs really dropped the ball this time. I could see adding more SBD's but to increase the chances of DB's on top of that, just took all the challenge out of it because there is no challenge now. It's practically impossible to do now and hardly anyone is even bothering to try it anymore.

Okay, there is some hope for you on the destroy missions, but not much. I went up with a group and I figured how to do the repair droid/super battle droid room to open the meeting room.


Basically, you must save at least ONE person fully buffed, who can heal themselves VERY well. In essence, this person must have good armor, full music/dance/doc/food/spice buffs.


Assemble the rest in your group, lets call them death fodder.


Send death fodder into room in a screaming frenzy!!!!


Follow closely on their heels and just run through the electricity field and hit the switch. Then high tail your ass outta that room. If lucky, Death fodder will occupy droids and no one will aggro on you and you can get out of their buffs intact. Of course, all your fodder will be dead but that is alirght.


Now, with buffs intact, you can easily complete the destroy mission using your death fodder to hit the elevator, fuel, hyper, etc. Then you can take your well buffed arse up to bridge and hit the final switch.


I don't know how to do the rescue one so I don't know if this applies. I don't see any way to do assassin...unless you bring up a group of 10 self healing droids (one for each person).

Thought I might pull this thread up front for everyone who hasn't seen it, but is looking for something like it.

It can be done with less but a bit of luck is alsoinvolved. I did it with just threepeople in my group( A guildy and my two characters). My alt did all the legwork as a Master Doc/Master Musician lol. That included openning the meeting room, enabling the elevator and getting the officer room codes. He only died once or twice. Once you have those three objectives done, me (Rifles/CM) and my guild mate (Rifles/Doc) ran to the room and killed the chief.

Here's where the luck came in: Somehow (probably by walking in the room first) my guildy got everyone to agro him. That allowed him to take most ofthe damage as I would mind heal him every 15-30 secs. If I was getting capped as much as him in the head, we would have gotten murdered. As it was, we took the chief in about 3-4 minutes.

You can check out two picks here (one shows the Chief''s resists), just go to the corvette folder:


http://f2.pg.briefcase.yahoo.com/desireehood


By the way, we were using 70%+ armor, Docs buffs, Musician buffs, 2 brandies, Muon, andSynthstake (A MUST HAVE).


Once you die, make sure you a have Pixie (So important to remember to take this), and more Synthstake (most the time you can get it with filling below 30, so you can take it even after you die).

A bump, and a question:

Does anyone have a list of the items you are looking for for each mission?

Anyone have a link to a walkthrough for the assassin mission?


I have had no problems completing the rescue mission or the destroy mission (neutral and rebel).


Last night I did the Neutral Destroy mission with my friend and my alt (who mostly sat back at the entrance). I'm a Master Doc/TKA (second part doesn't help me at all, wish I had Ranged Mitigation 3). My friend is a BH/Pistoleer/Politician (I thought maybe she could grant the SBDs zoning rights to get them to leave us alone but I guess that doesn't work).


First thing I did was have my alt run and get the droid spare parts, then run wildly to the far corner of the 1st floor and die, then clone. When he cloned, I had him trade the droid spare parts to my friend. This way we got the spare parts without turning the 1st floor into amad house. If we'd had more people, we probably would have taken all these NPCs out since they are fairly easy.


We took the some of them out anyways, and I went upstairs and got the data disk plus looted the armoire, then ran back downstairs. I used the disk to reboot the computers, and received the armory code, the bridge code, and a surprise visit from some SBDs. Luckily, they didn't aggro me, so I went about my business.


Next thing I did was head down to the engine room and aggro all of the SBDs and BDs near the broken R2 droid. Once I had all of them aggro'd to me, I ran back to the elevator and up to the 1st floor and chilled for a bit. At this point my friend went down the same way I did but ran into only one mob, a regular Battle Droid, whom had not aggro'd me. She killed it and dropped the spare parts on the droid.


At that point I headed back down to the lower floor. About a dozen various SBDs, BDs, and NPCs were waiting for me, so I ran like hell and kept myself alive using my 1288 power stims(thanks to musician buffs, Muon, Brandy, and Canape). I went to the meeting room and used the computer, then ran back to the fuel room and aggro'd all the mobs so my friend could go in there and use the control. In retrospect, I should have used the control myself while I was there, but I wasn't sure if I could while in combat and at this point there were two dozen baddies on me and I needed to get back to the 1st floor.


When my friend was coming back upstairs from the fuel room she got aggro'd by an SBD and this is where things when awry. She came up the elevator and it appeared an SBD had followed her up (not sure how). Eventually she died. I rez'd her and decided to finish the mission so I ran downstairs, went to the hyperdrive room set that, then ran up to the bridge and set that and won the mission.


Before taking the escape pods I also managed to loot the Armory and the droid/armoire both. Thankfully we got two power plants out of that.


My whole suit was 80% energy except my chest and helm which were around 87% energy.

Ok, I hear that the mobs on the neutral corvette are CorSec. If this is true, do the mobs still aggro you if you have say, faction 5000 with Corsec? Same for Rebel and Imperial corvette missions, if I'm on the Imp Corvette, and have say, 5000 Imp faction standing, will the Stormies aggro me?


Thanks in advance
