You kidding me, thats the teir 4 duty most worth doing! Its the one duty that spawns black sun styled ships
Oh i got the routine on that one, and a LONG one it is. Ill hyper into dants wraith. First wave is usually 1200 meters from it. Ill grab that first mob and tow him back to the imp station tahts about 6K meters or so from the dant wraths hyper point, and kill him there. At that point 95% of the time, all subsequent waves will spawn within 2KM of that imp station.
The mobs explode rather nicely on the station, and the station itself is a nice AFK spot in between waves to go grab a soda or watch mail call on the history channel or something
Nooooo, i havent done that one at all!

No, but usually if I heard someone whine about a mission or mission difficulty or inequality, I think I'd be likely to tell them to toughen up. Was an odd reaction to go hrm, I know that name, maybe he's got a good point?
lol....It's called "brown nosing".
But to his credit, I've never seen a silly post come from Ducimus.

Hmm, I must have missed the meaning of your original post. I thought you were *looking* for easy farming. Sorry, I am English Third Language, so I sometimes miss the subtlties.
I like this particular one because it is long, I usually get decent parts, and i can do it in the wee hours when I am near asleep already.
I am also not sure if you are mocking me here or not, if so *shrug* have at it I can take it in good fun 
I agree though, I would like a Black Sun duty. Oh well, I am over it and have my BS Helmet anyway.

Odd statement, SonofKashyyk. It's actually called respect, an odd term, and I'd just as soon not be insulted by you, who would be on the other end of the scale after some of your comments in here. I respect quite a few of the pilots who post, so when I see their name attached to something I'm more likely to listen. Yours would not be one such name.

Isn't that Storm Squadon? Only catch is that they're mostly light fighters, if it's the duty I'm thinking of. Low XP/cash payout, and they can sometimes be a bit more squirrly to shoot and kill.
Black Epsilon also has Black Sun style ships (I think, been a loooong time) but the waves start so painfully slow. I think it's the only duty I never completed - I got bored before the end every time I tried.
Inquisition spawns freelance style ships from the Emperor's Retreat. Slightly better mission, since many of them are the big slower varieties, if memory servers.

you know what else?
conventional wisdom on these boards (or so i belived) lead me to think that imperials had an easier time with grinding in DS. the facts are sadly opposite. for the first time last week i seriously began grinding with my neutral alt. the lure of a three 4,750 dmg gun krayt was too much. well, i got bored of grinding as an imp (i've been doing it as one for, oh, 400 million prestige) so i decided to try the rebel side of things.
whoever said imps had it easier was a fool. the only thing difficult about being in DS as a rebel was contending with the super annoying tie fighter tactics and their inability to miss a flying corndog like the krayt. otherwise every ship goes down faster, including gunboats. "but but the imp ships spawn slower!" right. not if you know how to work the zone. my buddy and me were non stop fighting off the back of theISD for 2 hours or more after resetting the damn place.
what do imp ships offer less FP or something? (freelancer, so that's the only part i don't know) if they offer the same amount of FP i'm going to be a little miffed. imps get less mass, no ship with massive firepower, no good duties, harder time to master, a multiplayer ship with what looks like a gigantic R2 dome on top of it, and the only trade off is smaller average hitbox ships? am i missing something? yeah, we all know the empire just looks cooler, but cmon.
*pout* I like the look of the deci

oh also, while you are in tier 1, you get to call the vortex squad droid "metal head" at least twice.
AND
imperial ships are more fun to fight, cause they are always spamming you with morbid text calling for your imminent death and whatnot.
serously the first thing i thought when i saw the decimator was that it had a giant lumbering r2 unit in it. i was sure i'd get close to it and it'd go:
WHIRRRR BEEEP DEE DOOO
