Great Guide, i did this yesterday thinking "oh what the heck, I have no chance but will try anyway!" Turns out i did have a chance, I soloed the vette with about 5 seconds remaining. 
Just enough time to type "/gu I GOT IT" and then get booted...man that was such a rush
Also of note, wehn i went to the electricity, none of the SBDs aggroed me...that was som divine intervention if i ever saw it

Congrats man! This is one of the best guides of any type I have seen on these forums. Good job. I read your guide and ran the destroy mission twice in one day. completely solo (tkm/doc) first time never died second time. I died about 4 times before managing to get the whole top floor agro on me and then walked through the rest with partial HAM and no armor.
I have two questions for you though regarding the loot drops. First of all I got the armory code and proceeded to the armory to find that I was able to walk into the back room and loot the armoire without ever typing a code anywhere. Is it enough just to obtain the code or was that a bug?
the second question is this. Can the Mobs drop anything valuable or are those only in the 4 loot locations.
oh and by the way if I did not make myself clear up front
Thank you!, Thank You!, Thank You!

Yes it was a bugsimiliar to the elevator door being open, sometimes the armory will be already open as well, but it is rare for this to happen
the second question is this. Can the Mobs drop anything valuable or are those only in the 4 loot locations.
Yes, sometimes Mobs actually drop stuff....not too sure how "valuable" it is, but some of the stuff includes Rebel Shirts, low grade weaps, and spices

Hey guys,
Just an FYI on the assasination part of the guide. The portside room (to get the portside code )is to upper most right tunnel. If you're facing the long straight tunnel ahead. Learned the hard way. Thanks for the great guide!!

you killed a 192k HAM mob and did the elevator and codes in 3 minutes and got off the entire group?

Is it possible to SOLO the corvette and loot everything while dying only once ?
Also what are you solo peeps eating/drinking ? I read something about taking brandies and vercupti and then powerboost as TKM.
Yes, very much so. It can even be done without dying at all. My fastest destroy time is now down to a little over 5 minutes (with spawns being nice to me )
)My corvette loadout is as follows, buffs, with at least mind secondaries, a dance buff speeds along in case something blasts your head, some armor, just the "normal" 80 kinetic, 77 elec, 67 base stuff (sliced of course). And a brandy if needed, but the big thing is synthsteak for the barrage of blasters and lowering the damage and for the really bad times, a feign death to stay off those nasty deathblows.

Dang, how do you guys do it? Every single time I've tried to take on the corvette solo I've failed miserably. With or withour armor I can't seem to get it.
The one time I went in with armor, buffs, and synthsteak I was cut to shreads within 5 seconds just trying to loot the disk on the top floor.
Whenever I go in without armor, I always seem to get stuck around the 5-armed wheel-room (trooper in the middle keeps blasting me regardless of how I'm moving), shot through the walls by SBD's in closets, etc. The first hallway by the elevator also seems to be a bit of a problem if I don't take 'em out (which is hard unarmored.)
Any advice or recomendations? I can get as far as the fuel pump, but the second I get to the hyperdrive/2nd and 3rd armoires I'm usually either out of time (I'm pretty sure I spent at least half of my time up there this last run incapped between objectives - they wouldn't DB at the worst times, then DB when I need to survive it seems) or finding it impossible to progress further due to the afformentioned ST that roams the center of the chamber with his AR2 and 120k HAM.
Any help/recomendations would be most appreciated, as it's getting rather frustrating at this point. I look at theCorvette, and I know that it would be impossible to do the legitimate way the devs intended now that they've got the SBD countso absurdly high (there were at least 20 inthe broom closet with the defunct droid for crying out loud! A CLOSET!)

It just looks like you were very unlucky. I did it twice so far and didn't die but I did notice that the 2nd time I was attacked way more by everyone. The first run only a few of these soldiers attacked me an no SBDs at all

there is a little trick mentioned in here that seems to work flawlessly for me each time.. 3 now in as many days. If you read through you will see it. I believe the easiset way to do this corvette is to do the destroy mission solo.. and i mean absolutely solo. no one else up there with you. Shouldnt take any more than 15 minutes to do the mission and get all the loots. and you should not die more than once. I hate to keep stating this little bit of helpful information which will allow you to do this so i wont for fear that it gets changed. look closely you can do it.
