My mission is to transfer documents from one freighter to another. I get jumped by Tier 4 rebs on the way there. Got slaughtered.. but the question is... is this the final quest before the Corvette? As in this is the quest that ends in a squadron battle that requires me to take out two gunboats? I just wanted to know before I waste my time trying to solo this mission for hours and THEN find out I need a team of pilots anyway...

Well its been along time since I hit master RSF pilot, but as a recall, it seems you are on the last teir 4 box mission. the exit quest is where you have to take on the FLEET of black suns (2 gunboats and ALOT of fighters). Then it off to kessel for your two master quests. I remember doing the last three quests..... Anyhow, the big blacksun battle is the last teir 4 quest before the master pilot quests.

For my first tier 4 box for the coronet neutral squadron, there is a delivery mission.Even with a master sheparding meI got killed the first time, but the master taught me the secret of that mission. I don't know if this is comparable to the situation you are facing or not.
The key at a certain point in this mission is not to fight the enemy. Your mission is to deliver, and the focus has to be on that. You can try to kill all the enemies first, but that won't work because it is an endless spawn. So run as fast as you can to the rendezvous, dock, and try to deliver the goods before you are destroyed. I failed this first tier 4 mission even with a master along, but I soloed it the next attempt! Of course, now I am stuck on the next box.

I did this mission last nite and I think it is the third one. Ya in the middle you get jumped by a lot of rebels. And when you are docking you are constantly underattack. You have a short patrol after that and you will finally get to a waypoint that you wait at. You get about 6 or 7 waves of 3 at a time level 4 blacksuns. Really easy and than you get mission complete. I guess ill do the final one this evening. But I think there will be an exit quest also but could be wrong on that.

Yes indeed, that's the one I was on. So I did the mad dash for the other freighter dodging shots like crazy, docked with it and then immediately did an in-system jump. And then came endless spawns of tier-4 black suns. Strange how the black sun tier 4's are easy as pie but the rebs almost ripped me to pieces. Goes to show that the tier system doesn't make for a very good gauge of how tough a target is...
