How is anyone supposed to find and kill a corvette with a horde tier 5 escorts, that only spawns every few hours in a random place in kessel and only stays in the system for a few minutes? Even if you manage to get a group together its likely your not going to even find it. And all that just to be able to fly a multi-player ship, which are a lot of the fun in JTL and should be for everyone.
I know people soloed did it in beta, but they have made things a lot harder since then.

The 100% accuracy turrets dampening your spirits, too? Or is it the gankers camping the hyperspace points?

Every few hours? I've been in Kessel for four straight nights in a row, and when flying around, always find at least 3 corvettes, and 2 or 3 imperial corvettes.
Fly around. They're there.

I've been all over it a few times and all I find are gunboats and fighters.

Many people warned the Dev's about the "Gankers" that would exist to make life hell for anyone trying to become a master pilot. This is going to be a bigger issue as time goes on.

Nasher is right. Much like all of Tier 3, the Master Mission isn't optional.

The fighters arnt really a problem for a couple of people, but those gunboat turrets never miss.

I've noticed on the rebel gunboat, if you're directly on its 6, and going the same speed (300..knots...m/sec...whatever it is), it can't fire on you.
I've taken out 3 rebel gunboats solo so far doing it this way. (28k xp each 
)

Yea but that doesnt work on the imp ones, their only blind spot is right underneath them where you cant hit it 
They also have more turrets than the rebel ones.
