Can't get trained and capped at 200k - argh! I'm on the tier 3 mission where you have to kidnap the Imperial over Dathomir. I keep failing the mission, and now when I try I don't get waypoints generated for the mission so I have no idea where to go after the first round. Any thoughts on a fix?

Are you in Crimson Phoenix? Cause if you are I helped a friend of mine do the mission and after the shuttle got away we sat there fighting wave after wave of interceptors and TIEs for like 2 hours straight and the mission wouldnt freakin quit! LOL

Yes, I am Crimson P!
I figured out the 200k cap I think.
BUT - everytime I try to fly this mission, I get NO WAYPOINTS! Again, I did the first few times I tried the mission, but now I don't. If you group with someone else doing the mission, will everyone get credit for it whose in the group?
I don't mind that the mision is ashard as "Big Shows" nipples, but without waypoints, it is of course impossible!

I was able to solo it, but it took me freakin 5 times to get it done! I would do both of these things, get a long probe, and when u have that waves of ties, try and run to the waypoint on first wave, kill the ties real fast and keep doing it wave by wave, till u get a lull in-between a next wave, then dock, and if they come use emergency shields while docked. Once uve docked the waves stop, but then there are 2 more similar missions, and the next just keep destroying waves, after like 4 they stop. Good Luck

Thanks for the advice!
HOWEVER
I can get the first wave, but afterwards, the waypoint indicators DO NOT SHOW. I get the message to go do this or that, but no waypoint pointer. The problem isn't completing the mission, it's knowing where the next part of the mission is!

sounds like maybe u are getting close enough to the waypoint that the ship hypers in. If u havent done the part were u dock with the gun ship (thats not the lambda shuttle from earlier on its after the theft, escort, then dock again) then maybe the ship already hypered. Look in ure radar for a white dot surrounded by like a yellowish outline of a box, if its not there then ummm ....a bug maybe?

OK - so I tried what you suggested and it only works for the first part of the mission. I can capture the first Shuttle, then drive off and kill the Imps. After that I'm told to deliver the data to a waypoint which doesn't spawn.
Any thoughts on how to get the waypoints to appear again??

If you hit shift+escape and hit disconnect and log back in quickly you'll get the waypoint. The same thing for the next part with the gunboat. However, I cannot get the waypoint to fight off ties while the gunboat escapes, even if i log out and back in. Anyone have information on this? The coordinates so far seem to be the same each tiem I do this mission so if someone were to get the waypoints we wouldn't need it to update with new waypoints...

I have spent all day on this mission. I get to the end and then every single time the last wp is in the middle of 6 tier 5 pirates along with all the ties that are after me. They all agro me and Im dead in 15 seconds. This has happened 10-15 times. The on of course Dath only repairs 75 percent so to have a chance to beat the mission you have to JTL to another system to fix and on the way back to land to get the mission again I get agroed by groups of 6 tier 4's. Its just a bad game design.
