Well it'd be a shame to earn the jedi fighter at tier 1 then have it become obsolete at tier 2, or if you could get it at tier 1 in it's current form, there'd be no reason to want any of the higher ships.

its better to have a good tie interceptor than a tie bomber, believe me you are not doing it right. I got imp ace and back to rebel ace in 3 days, solo'ed it all with 0 deaths


use droid commands

Stop whining.... you think that all of the freelance guy's cried that the yt-1300 was a master ship, and not a level 1.. BOO-HOO.. work it off bub... I for one think that the speciality ships like grevious's, jedi starfighter, and the Arc-170, should have been master certs....Thos ships are unbelivable quick, and agile, and with the correct ShipWright (plug for my bud Profit on Bloodfin), you can get very low mass parts, with high yield, and they are the most powerful ships in the game.. I have a firespray, and sience i got the jedi starfighter I dont think I have used it once..(and that is the most sought after ship in the game, 8Mil on cost).....The Arc.. holy crap take that to kessle with 2 buds.... you firing arc is 170 degrees ( hence the name, if no one knew)...so stop bitching that you cant fly it... aaaaawwwww.... sorry guy this is not trophy, but for the serious space jocky.... Outta my way canon fodder.





I concure with you dude, I grinded like mad to get my YT-1300 as I am a freelancer pilot. I excepted that the ARC, Jedi starfighter etc should of been master. These are high class ships so they need high class pilots who know how to fly and how to fight. I got my ARC 170 and hell I just gave up rebel to get the Jedi Starfighter, once I complete that mission I will have to go back to rebel and grind FP again to get back up to captain again. So dude don't whine get some practise in and have some incentive to get to 4xxx.

LOL


/search master pilot hello can you help me?


jesus, no offense but this is one lame question.


I grinded to master pilot in about 2 weeks starting when JTL was first released. Loved it. Soloed almost all of it. Some of the missions were hard and I died and i went and got better equipment, when the equipment didnt help i asked a friend (or stranger) for help. If one wingman wasn't enough I came back with 2 if that wasn't enough i came back with 3. Then I did the vette with nearly 20 people. It was a blast.


A friend of mine was having trouble on a tier 3 mission last night,so I said "hey let me give you a hand with that". Hopped in my decked out b-wing and stomped all over that mission and the next 2 as well. Seemed to me that the mission was way easier than when I did it. Wasn't easier because the mission changed either. It was easier because no one had a ship like my b-wing the second week of launch the parts just didnt exist or hadnt been madeor looted yet.


You noob pilots don't know how easy you have it.


Lol why are the elite ships only for elite pilots? Because you aren't ready for them yet.

Not to hard to understand. They want you to play there pos called jtl. Doing the fun static quests with wing after wing with fighters coming at you, realizing that your capable of going to lightspeed but you cannot transfer a document via radio but must dock with the ship and o i nearly forgot... Protecting the cargo ship. There is all there is in there quests.


Its so dull its not sane, whoever wrote this should be transfered as a parking ticket guard on the south pole since that is about as fun as doing these "quests".

I use the tie bomber as soon as I'm certed for it, the interceptor just doesn't have enough firepower for me. Soloed up to ace, and was in a bomber when I hit ace.

What do you classify to be elite pilots?


The cert for these new ships is only Tech 4. So basicaly 4-3-3-3. You dont even have to master. Get over it.

Why do elite pilots get the cool ships?


Because we earned them, that's why.






There we go, that sums it all up. I have never made Master, I haven't even gone over 2 2 2 2 (can't get into Jabba's palace) and I'm not whining. Just WORK FOR IT if you want the ships.

i really think if u did complete any of the new wookie world starfighter quests, u shoud be able to pilot them. im only 3-3-2-2 imp pilot and i did complete e the jedi fighter quest, but i cant fly it because im not 4-x-x-x. And im not a big fan of JTL hate doing the same missions over and over again when i fail them(YES i use a tie bomber with top notch components and YES i do get help)

It is very annoying to finish a quest, then get a reward and in the end not be able to fly it. Why not be able to fly the reward fighters at your level in the end the components will still be at your current level?



sorry about spelling




I think they put these new ships in for people who actually LIKE space. It's not at all that hard to get to the 4th tier, I did it in 3 days. You said you weren't a big fan of JTL...well ROTW is also an expansion of JTL. The new ships aren't like the new speeders or Varactyl or what not, they're actually, well most are useful and you must complete quests to be able to use them. If you're not happy with space, there is sooooo much ROTW content on the ground. Check it out.

So your saying the quest is useless unless your tier 4 pilot. Ok then give us something we can use. Either that or get rid of the quest. Sounds simple enough. Why waste time on it. And if you have,give usan rewardwe can use. No whining, just logical sense. Then the babies on tier 4 can gloat all they want and wont have hear tier 3, 2, or 1 complain.
