Alright, this mission is really getting to me. It's the one where you have to like escort some engineering ship like 50 times and dock with another 50 thousand ships (well..2). I get towards the end (i think) but the friggin death watch tier 4's come out of nowhere and blast me away. I mean these guys aren't even involved in the mission. Same goes for the spice fiend ships...but I can manage them.


I've done this mission5 times now...what sucks is that it takes about 30 minutes. Anyone have a solution? No, I can't upgrade my ship anymore.

1. Get a Heavy TIE, not an Interceptor, or TIE/In or Bomber
2. If you're on Bloodfin, give me a /tell, I'll help you out.

Although I won't be on till after 11:00pm EST, tonight is the season premier of Battlestar Galactica.

Critical error you made was in picking the ships box over components. The mission would be manageable if you had L6-7 gear.


If your heart is set on soloing this, I'm not sure what to recommend, except to practice your spatial awareness. Those ships "out of nowhere" didn't really come from nowhere, you drifted into their aggro range as you were fighting. Learn to be very aware of the 1100m bubble around a wild spawn, and you can avoidtrouble from them. You will need to be sly and tricksy, every mission is meant to get harder, and the jump at the end of tier2 and into the first part of tier3 is the biggest. You gave yourself cement shoes by picking a ship and not having the gear to go in it.The step up in crafted weapon and shield poweron each ofthe first 3 tiers is needed, and its REALLY needed forStorm Squad t3.

ah, I may have stated something wrong. I haven't researched 3/2/2/2 yet...thats what I was trying to do (nowI know not to..). I am still at 2/2/2/2. Everything in the mission is easy...just when the guys that aren't involved step in =/. They tend to hover right over the ship I am supposed to escort lol.

Oh, and nothing beats the mission where I had to kite the enemies to the nearest space station, and fight them while i repaired every 10 seconds xD.

If you're trying to break into tier3 then make SURE once you get this box, you go 2322. New ships won't mean bugsquat if you dont have the better guns, shield and engine that become available.
