Just did it today, the Crimson Phoenix Tier 4 exit mission. Did it in my A-Wing,
Tier 4 Decimator along with its 10 TIE Fighter escorts. Boosted through them as they come at me then target the weakest and pick them off. Worked my way through boosting and CtSS3ing as necessary when the Decimator landed hits. Once the escorts are down, make strafing runs on either gun.
The second part of letting the clean upcrew get the peices of it was a bit harder. I ended up inside of a natural Imperial spawn and spent more time bobbing and weaving to avoid fire than killing TIEs.
Going to take on the Corvette later tonight sans missiles.

CorSec Tier 4 exit mission. third part is multiple pirates plus two tier 4 spinning/chasing gunboats... all of which come out of hyperspace within 100m of the waypoint you have to wait at.

Droid Scavengers (or something along those lines, forget the actual name) out of Endor(?) space station.
Been a while since I've run those but WOW.

That was mission 3, not the exit mission. The exit mission was a series of assassination attacks against the Hidden Daggers. Not nearly as hard, to be sure.

If i had to chose, i think its a tossup between RSF teir 4 exit, and Storms Teir 4 exit.
But otherwise.. meh.. i dont think there is a mission that really tests you after a certain point.

Lord Cyssc assassination.
Two Imperial-style Tier 5 gunboats with missiles, one smaller warship with missiles, one Warlord-class cruiser, two Belbullab-22s, three ARC-170s, all Tier 5.
It's a rush.

Those tier 5 "Jillion Bolts" things? Indeed they are tough. If Im switching over to a new ship after a break from it, Ill fly out there and engage them. If I can kill all 5 without them respawning, Im good to go. Great tester ships.

then it must have been the 4th... that was the only one (not countingthe vette)I couldn't solo and right after that I did the master missions
no idea... it was all kind of a horrific blur that I have been attempting to supress

No, it was the third. I just finished CorSec last night. It's all still very fresh in my mind.
