Wow, have you ever just had something happen and it was so disheartening you just stopped playing.

I have been rolling, I started playing again 2 weeks ago, I have a Swordsmen 2412 with a little medic, he's gota house, speeder, Good comp 80-80-80 armor. That was as of last week. I spent most of my time flying on JTL to get my pilot ranks cause i love to fly. I have always been a good pilot, i guess from the rigourous traing wwii online gave me lol, but I digress.

I have been rolling up the pilot tree like a train. I am 3433. I have an Xwing with 13000+ reactor, 2 weapons 1200-1700 and 1500-1800 damage blasters. Pretty good capacitor. A 85.speed engine. 1200 front and back shields. 500+ armor on both front and back, R2 droid with 35.7 interface speed.

I am trying to do the first tier 4 mission after i got my 4 component box. Its the one where you start off going to take out a fleet of ties, well at first i made the mistake of flying straight in and not waiting for my pals to pull some of htem away, so they all jumped on me. I dodged all over the place, still taking lots of hits, never stayed on one target for more than a few seconds, BARELY, by the skin of my teeth made it out of that, i limped to the station at 300 spd.

Then it was time for the second part of the mission, you are sent to take out yet another flight by yourself. By luck while i was repairing, they engaged some Privateer NPCs, so i thought, "excelent a few of them will be occupied" NOPE, as soon as I got close they all barreled after me and there are 2 tie aggressors +5 or so other ships. I was jinking and dodging with everything i could, i tried dodgeing at full speed, corner speed, low speed. Barely a second went by where I wasn't getting hit, and I was pulling hard tight manuvers. The tie aggressor gunner is WAAAAY to accurate, I dont care who you are when your pilot is turning and rolling your ship, there is NO WAY you are gonna hit every time, but boy that tie aggressor gunner sure does. So it makes it impossible to shoot at him without taking lots of damage, + if you try to break off to go after someone else, no matter which way the Aggressor is going either he is shooting you from front, or his gunner is shooting u with laser aim.

I got pummeld in under 1 minute of insane jink's and dodges, and these were legit to, ive been flying space and other flight sims for 10 years, i know how to dodge and juke. But when I ejected my reactor was at 0% and the station wouldn't let me repair anything, said i had to wait for parts. So now i can't even take off again because my reactor is jacked up, and there aren't many Reactor repair kits anywhere i have ever seen. So now i have to find a shipwright.

This was more of a "needed to get out of my system" thing, but I welcome any tips you guys could give me. I know i don't know it all and each game has its "way you have to fly" to win. I don't know anyone on Valcyn that is my lvl and i'm not ina guild so i don't really have anyone i can bring along in a group. Is it my ship? components? lak of a wingman? Pls don't just say a little of all three, clarify if you cna pls.

wow how do you fit all that on an x-wing? and how much did all of that cost you?

i also wana know that,no way if i could fitt half of that in my 105K mass x-wing... no F**** way , im using low lvl components all the way.

Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
