this is the story on how i got totally pissed off:
1. my friend lan says him and a bunch of friends are about to go do a mission in the dathomir system. he says meet in the science outpost. so i think "ok, this shouldnt be to bad, its just a tier 3 mission
2. i prepare to go to hyperspace into the dath system
3. i arrive in the dath system
4. (step one of getting me pissed off)i head towards the space station, and about 1000meters before i get to it, some imperial ship comes right from the behind and im down in 5 shots. 
5. (step two of getting me pissed off) i arrive at the station and ask for repairs but he could only do 75% so i landed and told lan that i had to go to another system to get my ship fully repaired for the mission. 
6. (step three of getting me pissed off) i get repairs at correlia then hyperspace to dath and lan told me he didnt know what system they were in so i hyperspaced like 3 times to find him 
7. (step four of getting me pissed off) lan and his friends had to land because they failed the mission 
8. (step five of getting me pissed off) i decide to go to the dath space station to meet them on the ground but then something decided to start attacking me so i logged off so i didnt have to put up with it. 
9. (step six. final step to getting me pissed out of my mind) i decide to get back into the game but for some reason it wouldnt let me in so i decided to go here to post on how i got pissed off!
so what did we learn here today kids? never try to help a pissoff person and his friends do a mission in the dath system unless you want to get totally pissed off! have a good day while i sit in my chair being so pissed off at that imperial ship. how do i let out my anger? by banging everything in site with a sledge hammer! thanks!

Next time try /findfriend Ian
If you are on each others friends list it will make a WP in your datapad named Ian. It will have what system he is in. When you hyper there just do /findfriend Ian again. Keep pressing ctrl UP and it will be like a tracking device, tracking him across the space zone as you approach.
Hope that relieves some of your pissed offness.

Just like when your lost in the forest, STAY IN ONE PLACE, let them come to you.

I always try to arrange to meet someone at the hyperpoint where they enter the system for their mission. I also get them to put me on their list for the duration of the mission and I put them on. Lastly, I learned a long time ago to laugh at stuff like this, because getting mad accomplishes absolutely zero.

Simple fix. One, stay grouped. Instant general tracker right there. Two, start your mission from a starport on the ground. That takes away the hyperspace jump confusion. Three, your sig says you're a Tier 2 pilot. Under no circumstances should you ever go to Dathomir as a Tier 2 pilot. I don't even think they give missions for Tier 2s there. Plus,theDathomir Station is guarded by a squadron of Tier 4 ships, including an Aggressor.

well first of all i wouldve done travel at correlia but i was like 30000 meters away from the space station and i need to go there quick so i hyperspaced to dath. i didnt know that it would be so hard to just land on a stupid planet that i dont even like. they dont have like 4 tier 4 B-wings surrounding the correlian space station do they?
and btw i can easily take tier 3

well i have some of the best armor a ship can get at my level and my ship has 2 weapons which fire at the same time and i can already take tier3's EASILY. not only that, like 15 other people were helpling so heres how i would arrange the body count
:imperial body count: (all of them)
rebel body count: 1 (at the most)
besides i think there were like 3 B-wings, 5 A-wings, 2 Z95s, 2 X-wings, 1 longprobe(me), and 2 Y-wings
if any of us were to die it would probably one of those wimpy Z95s

If your a 2/1/1/1 reb pilot, that meant you couldn't wait to get a Y Wing LongProbe, but you don't have the skills to equip it properly. You should have picked 1/2/1/1 first. You can't compete, the best armor you could possibly get wont help you and your guns don't have enough power.
You need to be a min of 2/2/1/1 now, so you have Ship Equipment Certification 4 and 5. For your Y LP, your reactor should be 12000+, your shields over 1600+, your weps1600 dmg...your gonna need a capacitor overload, (I don't have one yet) so you end up waiting forever for the guns to recharge chasing Imps. I recommend keep looting Tier 1's and 2's for better equipment. Then get your friends to help you finish your Tier 2 missions.
When you finally get 2/2/2/2, I strongly recommend the next skill you learn is Equipment C Advance before you jump into getting an X wing. You can outfit your ships with Level 6 and 7 cert parts.

One other recommendation, although you probably know this by now...speed adjustment is probably the most important skill you need to use when flying a Y wind LongProbe...you can't make turns at full thottle...I usually fight at half thottle and adjusting as necessary.
