I helped my friend make Ace, we had an Ace RSF with us, and I BS2'd the vette's shields, and the strike package eventually chewed the gunboats up a bit. I myself made a quick strafing run on the vette, and in the end I "helped" destroy the reactor and bridge.

Woot just took her down solo. Missles made it to easy. The gunboats floated off this time, i must have been near the exit wp or something.

Was in kessel today to do my first master mission since publish 19. Normally i used to be able to do this mission fine. Take out the fighters, hit turret 5, shields, sec shields, engines, and then the gunboats would float away. You would then take out the vette without gunboat interferance, and clean up the gunboats later for an easy mastery. Today i did this. After i disabled the engines the gunboats started doing circles around the vette protecting it. This makes the mission very hard and I was not able to complete it with a group of 4. Anyone else experience this?

Hmm..I just helped 2 friends get their Masters this weekend and we did not have the problem with gunboats circling. We did just as you stated above and waited for the GBs to move on out from the vette which they did. Is it possible the vette was at its Despawn loc when you disabled it? The GBs will circle at the Despawn loc until somebody kills them.

You did KILL the gunboats afterward, didn't you?

if you havent killed the gunboats and you take out the vette engine the gunboats will circle for a few minutes then they will continue on their path. just get about 1500m away from them and wait it out for a bit and as soon as they level out pop the vette, then take out the gunboats.
Yet again i like to remind everyone....after you kill the vette the mission isnt over. Kill your gunboats so others can get to the vette.
