Unfortunatelty, the vette has no targetable engine or reactor.

Engine and Reactor become targetable after the secondary shield is gone=D

Meh, I am not going to keep trying to explain about getting that Master box marked.
Suffice to say if they cnaged the rules in the whole game that only 5 players per server could get a master in a class, I would be much much happier.
Ugh, are you kidding me? What a stupid thing to say.
Why? Thats how I think it should be, maybe making the number more like 15 Masters of any class (cant be master in more than one class ata time) and 5 Jedi.
That would make being a master a true challenge, a true reward. Not counting what the Master could do, just having peple see that tag, and say WOw, would be a great reward.
First we assembled a larger army than before... we did it with 8 people - 5 imps and 3 neutrals... this was a brute force approach.
1. First we launched 5 bomber strikes against the vette.
2. Then we disabled the fighter escort to save time.
3. Then we blew the bejeezus out of the vette ignoring the gunships.
This was our attack order...
3a. weapons
3b. shield
3c. secondary shield
3d. engine
3e. bridge
Hope this helps you save a lot more time than we had to spend.
Take care,

However, I do beleive that trying to keep a stopgag on the MP population in any way is a good idea. And since this would be the only way to do so - sionce the AI will never be good enough, keep it this way - you don't have to be a MP - they can put a quest that will allow you to use the multiplayer ships or what not.
The only thing is you made this up, this is YOUR theory. The facts dont support it.
1. Master skill box appears on EVERY player. Rare items such as AV-21s, firesprays and jet packs dont appear on every player.
2. SOE hasn't said that they intend, they haven't implied that Master Pilot nor MPs ships are rare, only the Firespray is rare, they have said that.
3. All that is happening is they are forcing PvP as a consequence to Mastering Pilot, and conditional PvP is not consentual PvP.
Your thoery, only, no fact can you prove this notion of rare MPs, nothing.

That would mean SWG each server would have a population of 36x5=175 players as no one would not want to master at least one profession.
think SOE can make money with 175 subscribers per server?
Not everyone has to be or can be the best. No way around it. I would play even if I knew I would never be the Master of anything.

Why is a condition not consensual? You are not forced to be a MP. You can chose to, with the consequence that you will enter a PVP area, and even then, PVP is not assured, only the possibility.
Once you are given the choice regarding MP/PVP, it's up to you, is it worth it, or not. To you, it is, but the PVP bothers you a lot. Fine, Dont be a MP, the game will go on for you.

Ok look at a thesaurus and tell me if they are the same? This game is Consentual PvP, MP sets up a conditonal PvP, that is not consentual, choosing MP is not choosing PvP you said that, you said it is a condition or risk a consequence, none of those are consentual PvP, the consentual part is coosing to persure MP.

If I had choice I could MP without PvP, that would be consentual, you tell me how and you win, solve for X. I am morally opposed to PvP but I want MP solve it?
Agian, there does not have to be a solution for you. Being a MP is not a requirement. If you make it one, then you are forced. You have decided that you MUST be a mp, therefore SOe is forcing PVP on you. But you are not forced to be MP. You can get along fine without it.

Mastering a profession is not about being the best, it mean achieveing a goal. If you have no goal why play. Your theory is that Mastering a profession is a mark of prefection, not a goal but a contest. If only 175 people per server could master a profession there would not be thousands of players that is not a stretch of the imagination.

One thing you wrote incorrectly You have decided that youWANT be a mp, therefore SOEe is forcing PVP on you. But you are not forced to be MP. You can get along fine without it. Being MP is the choice I have said this, you are trying to spin it that I imply you MUST become an MP, no you can choose to become an MP but once you CHOOSE that you are forced by condition to PvP in a game that is Consent based PvP.

Yeah, can you *THINK* of a better incentive to eBay? People are stupid - I've seen Jedi Masters sell their accounts when SOE would EASILY be able to narrow that purchase down.
