Supposedly Corsec, but I can't speak from experience as I have yet to do any other than the 3 Imperial squadrons.

Yeah, there are some very nasty wild spawns close to your mission objectives in Endor for Storm.
Like I said, I haven't personally done Corse, but from what people have said, you should be good. If you run into a lot of problems try to find a wingmate for the mission.

The hardest Squadron is always going to be your first. I've mastered only 2. First Corsec,and recentlyStorm Squadron. Corsec,I failed a buncha times on missions and pretty much had the vette handed to me by people who were already taking it out. Storm Squadron,I solo-ed the whole way, never failing a mission and only dying once for getting too close to the gunboats asI solo'ed the vette. I do have to admit,I did craft myself a Heavy TIE and used my Bellulab for most of the missions so I'm not that good. I tip my hat to those who soloed it prior to ROTW.

I logged my alt on yesterday with 1800 wounds and BF (from the blowing up constantly after I died 10 seconds from the end of 2 hour escort mission bug) and a TIE/in fighter on it's last legs, then I almost got load killed by a jedi at anchorhead.
So after that great start to the day I gave storm squadron the resounding biggest FINGER I could and went rebel, I just hope I get a good CSR when it comes to unpacking my JSF deed.
So yes, storm squadron is hard, boring and just downright annoying, don't do it as your 1st pilot prof, in fact don't do it as your 2nd pilot prof (like I did) either LOL.
Corsec isnt too bad, there's only 1 really hard tier 4 mission that spawns 2 gunboats on top of you but with a friend or really good kit in your ship you can handle it. Plus it's true neutral, you can attack anything (except fellow "cops") which makes for a barrel of laughs when you're helping a rebel friend on an escort mission and accidently disable his escort..oops.

I helped my friend with some of the Storm Squadron missions. They were hard and long.
Together we did fine, but honestly, it was nothing like Privateer in my opinion.
Hey, MacGyver is on.

We can simply categorise hardness levels per planet.
EASY: Corellia starting point
NORMAL: Naboo starting point
HARD: Tatooine Starting Point
That works for everything, Freelancer, Rebel, Imperial, all same ![]()

As a neutral pilot there are two ships that depend on your ground faction. If you are rebel on the ground then you can't get the JSF. If you are Imp on the ground you can't get the ARC. However, at 4XXX you will get the certs for both. None of this has anything to do with which squad you are (CorSec, RSF, or SA).

Thats somewhat ironic, the part where the game has you start for your first pilot prof is the hardest, ooo, good move...
