I'm glad to have just gotten my heavy X-wing, but the problem is I cant seem to get a proper loadout for it. It will be my PvP ship, so I'm guessing I want nice guns and nice shields. But when it comes to components I'm a fool, so I need some help.. Thanks,

I have a full load of components for my heavy Xwing but cant use them as the mission is broken for anyone better than a tier1 pilot who answers the questions honestly. It has been broken since launch (3weeks?) and as I did it 1 hour after launch so have I.
1478 bug reports about it and 5 CSR tickets, where the ticket reply is to bug it and bugging is proven to not work (1478 and rising!) later and im beginning to get peeved!

you answer to Emya if they Ghrag are easy, or hard. Answering "easy" bugs the quest and gives you an endless loop of Duty's from the space station. Answering that they are hard is what continues the quest.

Yup, I answered easy as they were easy, in fact to spice things up i was flying inverted above their cockpits with my cockpit open and slapping their ships with a large haddock and they were STILL easy!

Well I have a lvl 8 REed engine, lvl * REed Shields and 3 experiemental blasters while i RE some cool purple or blue ones - plus the usual booster, armour, CM, DI and a Mark 4 proton launcher!
For when they fix the damn bugged quest!

How did you outfit your Longprobe? Same mass better manuerability with the coolness factor of being an X-Wing.

How in God's name did you kill the gunboats that attack you on the way back?

In my case, they didn'te ven spawn.
Don't finish disabling the corvette until it's 5k from the station and things are a lot easier.
Anyways, I've basically crammed all the high end goodies I've always wanted to use into mine, except for the guns. Have a L10 engine with a max speed of 113 and 60 YPR, the reward shields, 2x Adv Blasters, Heavier Reactor, MK IV Proton Launcher, 1k armor F/B,a mid-range booster,a micro-chaff launcher, and a heavy capacitor.
I ended up trading off high speed and defenses in favor of lesser blaster weaponry (I never use the 3rd blaster slot on my X-Wings unless I'm mining) and a engine that has higher speed with middle YPR (I have a slower loot engine with some pretty high YPR stats I could have used, but I built this thing for pure speed).
Using EO3 I hit 1600 in this thing with boosters with a cruising speed of 1300. Not sure I even need a CM launcher when I'm not at manuevering speeds...

Thanks guys. I have a few questions.
What effect does overriding your reactors output have?
Is there any way to go past the ships mass?
Which components should I use high levels on? ( MArk V weapons, Mark I armor, etc...)
