When I'm on a Vette assistance mission and the bridge is just about to be exposed I typically go andpark myself right on the bridge window to protect it. Anyone trying to hit the bridge is going to hit me instead. I won't move till a "Ready" confirmation is received from all members thatrequire the vette mission.

I am 100% sure of this. When I got my master title I didn't even move my ship once and I have done the same for other people recently. As a matter of fact I helped a clanmate on monday to get his master mission using this method. As long as you are in kessel and in the group, you get the credit. Maybe you have to be at a certain distance from it, that I do not know but it might be possible.

It works for both. I am a Freelancer (Smuggler Alliance) so I have helped people destroy both using the same method. Just makes your life easier, at first I never understood why the guy who got us the master title didn't want any help with the vette, but now I understand... If people do not know what they are doing, they can block you in a big way and make a mess out of the situation.

Hunh, if someone I'm helping with the Vette decides to go hide somewhere and not help win his own badge, then I'll hyper out of Kessel the moment I see them doing it. I will HELP with missions, I will not do them for you.

Aye it happens. It sucks and yeh Aky I've had it done to me too.


I wish there was some kind of failsafe so people who kill steal achieve 'attackable by everything' status and they can be shot out of the sky , but...thats me dreaming and being nasty .

just make the corvette work the same way. and problem solved.








Group sizes will have to be de-Nerfed. On a recent vette raid, we created two groups because we had more than 8 people.

seems like overkill to me but i do agree about de-nerfing the group size.


just have one group of masters the other group with all the people that need it with one master that can solo it


the master group just kill fighters and gunboats and the One master in the Misison group kills vette.



but i have tested the method of killing vette and whoever is grouped with you gets mission credit. it does work the guy i did it with joined after fight was over.


i invited him, he joined, i kill bridge and he got credit never fired one shot just hypered in and hyperd out.


thanks for all the ideas and replys ill put all this info edited in the first post. for others to read.


I guess the best way to stop corvette stealing is to make sure no one dies and kill it asap so no one can just come up and kill it

Fortunately enough I have not suffered from the vette stealing problem, but if this keepshappening just do what I do. Get the people who need master to help you with the escort fighters (you draw them from the vette to the rest of the group to prevent deaths) and after those are gone, you tell the rest of the group to sit back and watch while you solo the vette. The do not have to do any component damage to get credit for the mission. All they need to do is be with you in the group AND be in Kessel at the time of the destruction. That way you will ensure everyone is there when the thing blows up. After that is done with, you send them after the gunboats if they are still around and not already back at their trainer getting their master title


Don't worry about them not practicing on the vette, they will have enough to practice on later on in deep space. I know this is not the way this mission should work, but sometimes you do need to work around asshats. The reason I do this mission this way is because otherwise people keep getting killed and takes them way too long to come back.

No, I couldn't test it, because I am on very limited gaming right now. Something about I play this game too much, don't spend enough time with my fiance and daughter. I really didn't hear, I was flying at the time.

I think it would be a nice perk if Squad Leader's had the ability to have a group larger than 8. It kind of fits and would give a pretty meaningful and in-demand role for that profession.
