I have a few alts that are working on Tier 2 and all are stuck in the same way. The freelancer has a Dunelizard, the rebel a Ywing and the imperial a regular TIE. I have the best tier 3 equipment I could find on all, double weapons on the dunelizard. Engines are all in the 58-61 range, good boosters.
My problem is that as soon as I have to engage a tier 3 anything on a mission they are so fast that I can't find a strategy that works. Some of the tier 2 enemies are almost too fast to engage as well.
I've tried what I've read on the board to deal with jousting enemies without success. Even if I manage to turn at the right moment to slip in behind they are so fast I only get maybe two seconds to shoot, not enough to stay ahead of their shield regeneration.
I blew through Tier 1 in the rental ships, no problem at all but I'm really struggling now. I feel like there's no way for me to get through Tier 2.

Any assistance, tips are welcome. I would bring friends with me on these missions but I don't have any.

Does anyone have any strategy they can suggest?

I tried doingg an escort mission and I spent so much time trying to take out the first two enemies that the following waves started arriving and piling up.

Thanks

Hiya Rob,

Im on Tier 2 and have the same problems as you. They are faster. At full speed, if you try to sneak in behind them you will only get a couple shots on em at best before they are out of range. This way will take forever as you have noticed. Then the next wave does start to stack. I found that if you keep your speed just a little above halfway it will help bigtime!! It will make you turn sharper. So instead of only getting 2-3 shots, you will get twice that. I found that when I do this, I am either done with the first wave or working on the last guy when next wave shows. With this I no longer need the help and can easily complete my missions. I hope this helps.

Thanks for the helpful information. I think I'm also going to give missiles a try.
