For all the things they did right in space, the 4 person group rquirement for these missions truely had blown the game for me. I can't for the life of me find more than one person to go up with me and try for this damn mission. VERY dumb decision guys. Nice.






Try starting a Rebel Pilot channel, and post about it on your forums. Take a bit of time to help a few players, and you will have built a loyal base.


To create a channel...


- rightclick on Spatial


- select join new channels


- expand "Lowca" (your server name)


- highlight "Chat"


- click create new channel


- name it something short (like "RPC" for rebel pilot channel")


- keep your channel public, so that anyone who reads your server forum will join up.






Next, Modify your spatial tab to monitor your new channel.


- rightclick on the "Spatial" Tab


- select modify Tab


- move your new channel, "RPC" from the left to right box






Invite your friends to join it (because it's a public channel), and wait for a message.


From the spatial window, you can now type /rpc and text, similar to /g groupchat, or /gu guildchat.






Good luck recruiting.

Then maybe it's time to find people you don't know.

All I can say on this topic is the W word and EQ2 have taken away all of the business from this game. Game is quickly dieing and even the rats have left the sinking ship. Its really sad to because I love this game

i find it hard to believe your server is devoid of all rebels playing JTL. in the past 4 days i've met maybe 10 people needing help on their missions, gorath is not that big of a server.

furthermore, you don't need 4 people to complete missions. you don't need 4 people to do your master mission. the corvette requires 2 things.

1.) a distraction
2.) good aim

approach it from behind and off to the side while someone distracts it. aim for the target computer recticle at the shield generator from your maximum weapon range. it will take 2-3 hits. move to the other side. don't even bother with the guns. once the ship is disabled you have essentially won.

you people need to stop letting JTL game you. it does not take a fantastic pilot to beat what is now an utter joke of a mission, all it takes is a tiny bit of thought, and an understanding of how the corvette works, how your guns work, how the AI works, and when/where the vette(S) spawn. i say VETTES because kessel now spawns more than one rebel (and imperial) corvette at a time to accomodate multiple people doing their master missions.

for your other missions, think about why you fail them. is it really because you don't have 4 people, or you can you improve on your performance in some way? people have solo'd your mission before. remember that.

If you manage to take out the guns 4, 5 and 6 on an Imperial gunboar, it becomes cannonfodder. cuz those are the 3 pointing to it`s stern Once they are down you can take the rest out easily if you stay behind the Gunboat.


A few spacebombs will make a Quick Death for any Gunboat as well, but that´s kinda "Overkill"

its a shame lowca suffers this way, chimaera is completely the opposite, kessels always busy, i did my corvette mission last night, and ive been there every night for a week, between 7pm n 10pm and its always busy.


the comment about the rebel corvette is similar tho, ive only seen the rebel corvette once since jtl's launch, whereas everytime i go to kessel you can be sure to see the imp vette

JTL died when SOE declared war on PVP. A lot of people left the game.

I've just read the notes for Publish 11.4, if they truly remove the decay for PvP damage, PvP will return in glory I think.

If you are a imp and on tempest I help out for ace, but ever since solo nerf I charge 50k per mission and 100k for a destroying a corvette.
