Im a Privateer RSF pilot and have been loving this game. Well until I was stuck on the 3 Mission 2! Its like a choke hold that I can't escape. Dont get me wrong I lovea good challenge, and even like it to be hard. But damn this has to be some sort of sick joke? I escort the Cadamo Sun to safety (this takes about 45 minutes to an hour in a group of 2. Then the mission switches to a suprise attack of about 6 tier 3 fighters, this is all pretty cut and dry just long, very long. Then after this it tells me I have to go to correllian space and I do at which point I have to protect something that isnt clear to me and even says something about back up arriving.. Who knows where the back up is. because I never see them. But anyways their are about 8 tier 3 fighters, a tier 4 Yt-1300 amd a tier 5 Ikirian fast attack fighter. The Yt-1300 even under focused fire on both of its weapons cuts the two of us to bits in a matter of seconds from any distance and any strategy...I have now been on this mission for about 24 hours and am getting no where fast. My bank account is running dry trying to find different combinations of equipment and none of this seems to help. And to top it off I now have 550,000 of my needed 200,000 xp to get my next lvl. But I cant get training anywhere in the galaxy until this mission is complete.



ANY HELP would be great I am to the point of actually praying that some sort of miracle is going to happen so that I can complete this mission....

Yep, welcome to JtL.


We complained about mission difficulty in Beta, but as it was explained to us they WANT you to group up for Tier 3 and 4 missions.


My advice is get more friends, I'd recommend a wing of 4 for most of tier 3, it seems to do the trick. Sometimes 5 or so is needed.


And yep...you can't train until you complete the missions.


Sucks don't it?

We do this with np 3 ppl with decent ships is the Key, you have to remember that SWG is NOT a solo-artist game, its all about teh teamwork..

Sometimes they overdid it with the acc the turrets shoot and the attack rate.

I'm in the same boat. The only thing I can think of is to bring along like five of my closest friends on the mission... Get a space-based 'gank squad' going... I managed to solo the mission all the way up until jumping to Corellia and then... as you might imagine, I got completely slaughtered.


Edit: For the record, I saw the ship I was supposed to protect AND the two fighters that hypered in as 'backup'. The three of them just sat there and watched me get decimated. 500m away, at most.
