i think the hardest part of those missions is when they stick you up against the pob ships.

not sure which storm squad mission it was. one of the tier 3 ones. but you get to disable a tier 4 nova and dock with it (remember to disable those guns too, or you'll be sorry) and then you get to destroy another nova (and it's escort of about 10 fighters). lots of fun there.


then in tier 4 you get to fight off 2 gunboats simultaneously. the rest of the missions weren't so bad, but those nova's/gunboats were...interesting.

I once forgot to disable a Nova's turrets before docking. >.<

OUCH! Luckily, my wife was with me for that one, so she could shoot the bloody things off while it was ripping a hole in me.

Glad I'm not the only one. That's the only mission that got me this time around, 'cause I was lazy. Need some way to abort the dock.

you can abort the dock. pretty sure /undock does the trick.

but i didn't live long enough for that to matter. heh.

Well...took a break since last night and just did it again. EVERYTIME I get to the part to dock with the disabled shuttle, 4 tier 4 pirates spawn within 500m of it. When I get there, they ALWAYS come flying over, and aggro me. My guns are not strong enough even with OC to disable them quickly enough, while I am trying to disable one, another is pounding me for some ungodly damage and goes right through my shields.



This is REALLY getting old....I breeze through the first parts, its these tier 4 aggros that are killing me. If it didnt take a good 2 hours to do this, I wouldnt care redoing it repeatedly, but I am a casual player and to devote 4+ hours to this game in one night is impossible with my wife! GRRRRRRRRR!

Rebel Vortex squadron is considerably harder than the other two Rebel squadrons, at least in Tier3. Don't know about tier4, as I have just gotten there for the first time with my main character.

It is bad form from SOE to make a mission this long, all sorts of health studies suggest that one shouldnt sit in front of a PC for longer than 1hr without a short 5-10 min break. They are requiring us to damage our endanger our health in order to complete a mission.


I know many folk do long stints on online games, but it shouldnt be a requirement.

That mission sucked. I barely survived the A Wings cause they hit my engine and got away. I had to keep spinning so they would turn and I would advance to the station to repair.

This is the most absurd mission I have ever done! Not only do they make it like 3 hours long with the endless escort, but ya gotta chase those goddam little Awings all over the sky like Gnats......Ya get jumped by Pirates, etc the WHOLE time.....ARRGGGHHHH!~


I just got to the 4th part of it and was almost done.......4 tier 4 DEATHWATCH ships come while I am fighting off 3 Xwings and a Bwing.....of course they hammered me into a pulp!


YES I am venting and YES I am whining! NO I dont want any cheese! I DID just snap the handle off one of my joysticks though......I have NEVER been this frustrated with this game EVER..... BAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11




Just currious. Are you useing the 4 overloads and cap to shield shunt? If not you are makeing things far more difficult than they need to be.
